Starting point is 00:00:00 This is Is It Just Me? Hosted by a couple of Mitches. Hello you. Hello you. Brace yourself for the rude shocks of young adulthood. Would you rather sit on a cake and eat a dick or sit on a dick and eat a cake? Sit on a dick and eat a cake, absolutely. If you sit on a cake you ruin it.
Starting point is 00:00:19 Do you think I'd ever waste a cake by sitting on it? Now here's Mitch Chooy and Mitchell Coombs. Hello, you. Hello, you. We've just had coffees on the company card. I'm feeling buzzed. And by the way, you offered to get a coffee downstairs, and I had already just had one, so I'm extra buzzed now.
Starting point is 00:00:38 Are you giving me the Apple Pay for our company card? It's been the worst thing ever, because I'm like, I'm going to talk about this on the podcast. The bing, the bing, the bing. I'm just keeping every, I'm keeping all the receipts. I'm going crazy. You haven't given me the docket
Starting point is 00:00:49 for this coffee, actually. No, I haven't. It all adds up, baby. I'll get it to you. I'll get it to you. Should I be worried? Am I going to have to check the bank transactions
Starting point is 00:00:56 and see if you've been doing dodgy spending? No, well, we have money. It's like we've got to spend it. Yeah, I suppose. I actually made a purchase this week. Did you? I don't know if it came through.
Starting point is 00:01:05 Did you see a purchase come through for Mary MacKillop Place? No, I don't actually keep an eye on the transactions. Pricekeeper Jenna, welcome. Hello. As you would have heard on the show the last few weeks, the Pepsi Palace that we record in is next to Mary MacKillop's. Now, is her corpse there? Yeah, her tomb is there.
Starting point is 00:01:21 Yeah, what's that actually called? Is it Mary MacKillop Place? Yes. Yeah. And Mary MacKillop is dead. Australia's first saint. Yeah, there tomb is there. Yeah, what's that actually called? Is it Mary MacKillop Place? Yes, yeah. And Mary MacKillop is dead. Australia's first saint. Yeah, there you go. I visit there regularly now.
Starting point is 00:01:31 Jenna is in love with Mary MacKillop Place. Are you? Yeah, I really love Mary now. The coffee's a bit ordinary though, don't you think, at the cafe? Yeah, it's not that great. But the food's good, but I don't eat any of it. How would you know it's good? Well, she's a saint.
Starting point is 00:01:46 Of course it would be good. So I wandered by. I it. But I just like going. How would you know it's good? It looks good. Well, she's a saint. Of course it would be good. So I wandered by. I was going on a hot girl walk, and I thought, oh, am I going to go in Miramakell Place? Had you not been? I'd never been. I thought Jenna raves about it. And that's kind of your vibe, sort of walking around tombs and graveyards at night.
Starting point is 00:01:58 Yeah, I love it. And I walk in, and to my surprise, there is no merch store. And I went, oh. No, there is. But there was no merchandise. It's more like a gift shop. It's a gift shop, correct. And I wanted merch like a hat or a tote that had Mary's face on it.
Starting point is 00:02:12 And there was nothing. It was all stupidly priced. So I went, this is bullshit. I walk into Vinnie's because, you know, Steve and I like op shopping. I thought I might find a nice bag. To my surprise, guess what's on sale at Vinnie's? What? You'll never believe it.
Starting point is 00:02:24 Let me get my purse. Oh, my God. What is it? That me get my purse. Oh, my God. What is it? That really is a purse. Jenna, I present to you. I'm excited. This is now part of the Is It Just Me canaconical history. Yes.
Starting point is 00:02:33 You're the prize keeper. Yes. I'd like you, every time we have a caller on the show or an Is It Just You winner, because we send out the Totally Tote bags, I'd like you to write it down by hand in your Mary McKillop Place vintage notepad. Oh my God. How is one supposed to use that? It's tiny. Hardcover.
Starting point is 00:02:52 Red, her favourite colour. It's like an iPad nano-sized notebook. How are you supposed to write in that? Oh wow, look at it. Jenna looks like a giant holding that little book. Hold it up, hold it up. It's brand new. Wow.
Starting point is 00:03:05 And read the price on the back. So they aren't selling that at Mary McKillop Place, but Vinnie's are. Yes. Interesting. Five dollars. Five bucks at Vinnie's. Shit. Yeah, put that on there.
Starting point is 00:03:12 I wonder if I went there. Did you get me anything? There was nothing there you would have liked. I'm sorry. At Vinnie's? Yeah. Would you want me to get... Okay, I'll get you something on my next hot girl walk and I'll bring it to your next show.
Starting point is 00:03:21 Well, there is definitely a gift shop at the Mary McKillop Place. I can't remember what's there. It's just like key rings and rosary beads and shit. There's a big statue of Mary and it's $50. Oh, we're good for it. I'd really like that. But isn't this, no one's used this. No, it's been ripped out.
Starting point is 00:03:40 Oh, is it? Yeah. It looks like a Pokedex for anyone wondering. It's a bright red hard shell notepad. And then does the pen work? Let's see. You'd hope so. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:03:50 Yes. There you go. So you can write notes. You can keep the callers and the details. Oh, this is so good. Oh, I love it so much. Are you just being nice, Jenna? No, I really do.
Starting point is 00:04:00 That is the world's smallest notebook. That would frustrate me so much trying to write anything in that. I'd get two words and then have to go to a new line. Yeah, it's not practical. No, but I mean, it's from Mary. And I really do. That is the world's smallest notebook. That would frustrate me so much trying to write anything in that. I'd get two words and then have to go to a new line. Yeah, it's not practical. No, but I mean, it's from Mary. I don't think it is. I'm Mary's biggest fan at the moment. Do you really think it's appropriate to be monetising a saint's name?
Starting point is 00:04:15 Isn't the whole point kind of to be holy? No, Mary wanted it. She was big into... Influencer culture. Yeah, Mary McKeel, famously before she died, had a blue tick. Yeah, yeah, yeahel famously before she died had a blue tick. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So she should. I agree.
Starting point is 00:04:30 I've got to tell you, I felt like a man of the people today. Why? Because I caught the fucking train here. I was so sick of the parking situation. Fucking side note, did I tell you? What? You know how I sit here and I top up my parking while we record? I'm a multitasking queen.
Starting point is 00:04:45 Yes, yep. Fuck. I went downstairs after we recorded and I was in a fucking clearway. It's a clearway from 3pm and I got there at 3.03pm. Oh, you've spoken about this, I think, haven't you? No, no. Oh, you just told us. The lines are blurred between you telling us things as a friend and then on the podcast.
Starting point is 00:05:03 I don't remember. Oh, I did actually. I sent you guys a fucking ranting voice message. Yes, you did. I was like, fuck. Yeah. After all that. So you got a ticket?
Starting point is 00:05:12 Well, I keep thinking that, oh, there's going to be something on my windscreen. And I'm like, sweet, there isn't. I'm good. But then it turns up in the mail like a week later. Yeah. You're in New South Wales now. They take a photo of it and mail it to you. It's criminal.
Starting point is 00:05:22 So today I was like, I'm going to catch the bloody train. And part of the reason I wanted to is because a lot of people in my life are really hyping up the new Sydney Metro. Yes. Did you go on it? I did. Oh, my God. I want to do it. And like Sean went out of his way to catch the Metro the day it opened because he just wanted to experience it. My friend Andrew was like, Mitchell, you've got to do it.
Starting point is 00:05:42 It's amazing. I don't want to sound like a bitch, but it was just a train. No, Mitchell. No, he's right. I was one of the first hundred or so people to go on it. And? And it wasn't incredible. I actually found it a bit terrifying how far underground it is.
Starting point is 00:05:58 Like the fucking flights of stairs, the escalators to get down to it are so long. And I almost got stuck in the doors. Really? Yeah, because there's no driver, so they just shut on anyone. And there are those anti-jumping doors, too, at the gates. I think it's great. It makes you feel like you're in London. I think about time.
Starting point is 00:06:14 Sydney Quarter. Nah, I think that what a waste of time not making them double-decker like all the other Sydney trains. No, double-decker Sydney. You can quite literally fit more people. You can, but these are longer, so you can actually fit more. And it's quicker and easier to get on and off. Also, it's the metro.
Starting point is 00:06:27 It's like quick and snappy. Yeah, Sean was boasting, you can get from Central to Waterloo in 45 seconds. That's impressive. But then I'm like, then it takes two minutes to go up the escalator to get out of the fucking station. Yeah, but it's also beautiful and there's public art. Is it just me on the fly? Or is there something inherently gay about mass public transport? Huh?
Starting point is 00:06:47 Every gay I follow. Happy Metro Day to you. Yeah. They all had their jock straps on and their Opal cards ready to tap on and tap their boyfriend. A lot of people in my life were fucking excited about this train. Yeah. And I was like, you do realise we've had metros in Sydney for years.
Starting point is 00:07:03 Yes. Because they've only just opened them in the fucking inner west bubble where all the gays are. Yeah. I used to catch it to our old studio. Yes. And I was like, you do realise we've had metros in Sydney for years. Yes. Because they've only just opened them in the fucking inner west bubble where all the gays are. Yeah. I used to catch it to our old studio. Yeah. Yeah. But yes, the metro's cute.
Starting point is 00:07:11 The exact same one? I've never done it. I'd love to try it. Because there's one right here. Is that the one you got off at Victoria Cross Station? Yes, I did. Wow. And it was fine, but it was no different from any other train.
Starting point is 00:07:20 In fact, I was robbed of the view over the Harbour Bridge. Oh, yeah, because you're deep underground. I love it. I think it's perfect. Extending it, this is so Sydney insular, by the way. Sorry if you're not in Sydney. Yeah, sorry. We've got a new fucking fancy train. It's so nice. And they're blue. I like the blue. Maybe it was overhyped a bit for me. I'd love it. I'd love to go on it. But I've got nowhere to go. Yeah, you never catch public transport anyway, do you? I've got no friends. I've got nowhere to sit. What do you mean? Where did you get on?
Starting point is 00:07:45 I just swapped at Central. So you got on the normal train? Yeah, and then I had to swap at Central and then Central to wherever the fuck we are now. I can't remember. So how long did it take you from there to here? In total, it was 20 minutes, which is pretty much what it would be if I drove. But that's still quick. It's four bucks.
Starting point is 00:08:00 Yeah, that's true. But then also, you do that twice a day every day. It's still expensive. It can't be any more expensive than me getting non-stop fines every fucking week I try to park in this shithole. But, like, I thought it was advertised as being, like, seven minutes or something. It was all the walking either side that was most of the journey.
Starting point is 00:08:16 I know. But it's nice going through all the tunnels. And, like, when I was in London, I got such a kick out of going on the Elizabeth line. Oh, my God. That's the most recent one. Yeah, it's named after Queen Elizabeth on her deathbed. She said, build it.
Starting point is 00:08:28 I love, there's nothing I love more and will miss more than getting railed. Please. If she ever was caught dead on public transport. No, she was. She went to the opening of it. She went to the opening of it. Oh, okay. And then she died.
Starting point is 00:08:39 What about how she went to some random's wedding? Elizabeth? Yeah, because you can send letters to the Queen and someone just invited her to their wedding thinking nothing would come of it and then she just turned up. They're like, fuck me, the Queen's at our wedding. That's so funny. I wonder if she gave a gift. She'd have to. Jenna, can you Google that?
Starting point is 00:08:54 You know what, if I was a major celebrity, more so than I already am. What do you mean if? I would, you know how like Halsey's always like, I got invited to prom by some 16 year old twink. I would accept them and I'd just turn up and be like, you invited how like Halsey's always like, I got invited to prom by some, you know, 16 year old twink. I would accept them and I'd just turn up and be like, you invited me, here I am at your But then if you accept one, you're going to get asked more. Yeah, but I love it.
Starting point is 00:09:13 I think it'd be so fun. All right. Well, any idiots listening right now that would like to invite Chira to something. Yeah. Please feel free. Be of age and I'll come to your wedding, maybe birthday, gender reveal. Christening. Prom.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Funeral. Yeah, funeral. I'll turn up. I actually maybe your birthday, gender reveal. Christening. Prom. Funeral. Yeah, funeral. I'll turn up. I actually want to get an invite. Invite me. I don't get invited too much. Okay, so. I told you you've got the answer.
Starting point is 00:09:31 Yeah, it doesn't appear that she gave a gift. Her gift was appearing at the wedding. Her presence was present enough. Yeah. I see. I get that. She's Queen Elizabeth. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:39 Well, she was, valet, of course. Can I tell you, it's a mixed bag of emotions for me today because I was having such a good time. I'm like, oh, look at me. I'm off to the train wearing shorts. Woo! Oh, yeah, I noticed. It's shorts weather again. It's so hot.
Starting point is 00:09:53 Those lovely legs. It's the weather, by the way. When Jenna let me in, I said, oh, I feel like myself again. I'm having a great day. Oh, you love shorts. It's shorts weather. He's back. And then I got upstairs and I realised, gee,
Starting point is 00:10:04 it's a bit fucking hot with this jumper on. I've got jumper and shorts and then took the jumper off. It's actually one of ours. It's the I'm with Idiots merch. No, it's one of mine. Yes, it's your one. Clearly you've found out which is the nicer of the merch. Mitch's pills, it's terrible.
Starting point is 00:10:16 No, it's the opposite. Mine doesn't. Actually, I just figured that I'm obviously going to sell way more of my merch in this competition that I'm not threatened. I can still wear and advertise as well and know that I'm safe. Oh, really? That's like what Trump wearing a Kamala shirt. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:29 That's how you feel. Out of pity. Right. Well, I hope you get shot in the ear. Anyway, so this is just a PSA to any idiots of ours that are going to order one of our jumpers. This is the first time I've worn it. Never been washed.
Starting point is 00:10:42 And then I tried to take it off because I was like, oh, it's too hot, and bloody fluff everywhere. Oh. Fluff everywhere. This is a smear campaign to get people not to buy my merch. No, it would be the same case with mine. It's not a smear campaign. It's a PSA.
Starting point is 00:10:57 And so I took it off, and I'm trying to, you know how you wet your hands and then just sort of dust your shirt off to get rid of all the black fluff on my shirt. Yeah. In the process of doing that, I realised that I had sweat patches. Sorry, no plural. Is it just me on the fly? Does one of your pits sweat more than the other?
Starting point is 00:11:14 Oh, for sure. I've been having sweat in the right pit a lot more and nothing on the left. And so I was like, oh God, those sweat patches, how embarrassing. Reached into my bag, wasn't looking, and grabbed out hairspray and sprayed that under my armpit. Oh, no, Mitchell. So now my underarm is all crusty. So I came here feeling so good, loving myself sick,
Starting point is 00:11:36 and now I've got fluff all over me, crusty pits. Wardrobe malfunction after wardrobe malfunction. Is it bad that I want to see it? See what? Your crusty pit. Yeah, how crusty is it? I don't know. Is it bad that I want to see it? See what? Your crusty pit. Yeah, how crusty is it? Say it at the same time. How crusty is it?
Starting point is 00:11:52 Are we taking bets? I'm going to have to take the jumper off. Oh, my God, he's actually doing it. Are the patches still there? Let's see. It's black. Oh, fuck. Is it bad?
Starting point is 00:12:02 Show me the left one. Oh, my God, Mitchell. Oh, my God, how. Oh, my God. How is that possible? I'm not embellishing for the show. It looks like you've dipped it into a cup of tea. I know. So this happened to me yesterday when I was at home.
Starting point is 00:12:11 It's finally starting to warm up in Sydney. And I was sitting there in like a singlet after Pilates, and I kept noticing specifically the right pit, I would just feel sweat drip down my arm. But this one, the left, absolutely fine. You need to go to an endocrinologist. You could have a hormonal issue. Jenna, can you Google that?
Starting point is 00:12:26 Is there something wrong with me? Sweating in one pit more than another feminine style man. But do you reckon maybe the hairspray might have set it? Oh, you think the hairspray has fixed the problem? No, the hairspray has actually just set the stain in, like made it more permanent. Oh, on the shirt. Yeah, the shirt's fucked.
Starting point is 00:12:39 You need to wash that thing with some nappy oxysan. Okay, you might have a condition called asymmetric hyperhidrosis. See your doctor immediately because this may have a neurological effect. What? What do they mean, neurological effect? I think it could spread to the brain. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:12:57 Is that on Google or this is what your diagnosis is trying to frighten me? No, this is on Healthline.com. Oh, God. If it's on Mayo Clinic, you're fucked. Yeah, see, that's not normal, is it? No, this is on Healthline.com. Oh, God. It's on Mayo Clinic. You're fucked. Yeah, see, that's not normal, is it? No, it's not normal. Do you ever sweat out of one pit more than the other? Yes, all the time.
Starting point is 00:13:11 Okay, so I shouldn't be too worried. So you both have the condition. It could be a nerve issue. I've got so many nerve issues. You're on my last one. Welcome to Is It Just Me? Every week we start the show the same way. Mitch shows us his pits and then we discuss.
Starting point is 00:13:26 We start with two Is It Just Me? Something we've noticed, something we same way. Mitch shows us his pits and then we discuss. We start with two Is It Just Me? Something we've noticed, something we hate or appreciate. Mitch doesn't know mine and I don't know Mitchell's. Mine's kind of targeting you. My Is It Just Me this week. Yours is targeting me. Yeah. Well, before we begin, I'm upset not one of you asked me how the Logies were.
Starting point is 00:13:41 I think I know the answer. Yeah, they were right. Nothing really happened. I wasn't even nominated. Don't know why I was there. That's like Mitchell being at the Vet Awards. It makes as much sense as Jenna being at the... Actually, no, I was going to say the local Crochet Awards. Oh, no, that's next week. She got
Starting point is 00:13:58 bronzed last year. Anyway, the Logies were good. Thanks for not asking. My just me this week is I'm back on looking at properties and you know thinking about moving out. Oh good. Looking at where
Starting point is 00:14:08 I'm going to go next. Because you said to me that I had permission to nag you to start moving September last year. Yeah. And I haven't nagged once.
Starting point is 00:14:16 So you've had a year and six months. I know but I found my gorgeous little Stevenny who lives in the Shire. Who? Steven.
Starting point is 00:14:22 You know it's kind of like Is that a thing Stevenny? Oh it just came to me in the moment. I think it'll stick. So I've just noticed something about real estate listings that have actually scared me. Oh, okay. So that's my agent.
Starting point is 00:14:33 I'm in the rental market at the moment too because Sean officially lives with me, by the way. Did I tell you that? He's moved in. But yeah, we're looking to get a place together. Am I? And yeah, fuck, it's slim pickings at the moment. Anyway, do you want to go first?
Starting point is 00:14:45 Yeah, I can go first. All right, let's go. All right, here we go. Is it just me or? Do real estate agents need to chill the fuck out? Go on. Yeah. I have a different take.
Starting point is 00:14:59 Really? Yep. Okay, the photos that they use on listings are terrifying. There's a new trend in the real estate world where you go on a listing, you want to rent an apartment, it's a two-bedroom apartment, you click on photos and then actually my heart stopped. I clicked on one photo and there's a real estate agency that really are quite bad in this called Brezic Whitney.
Starting point is 00:15:19 They're like an alternative. You told me that Brezic Whitney are like the elite, like the fancy. Yeah, they do like architectural design, beautifully styled apartments. And like a picture with a cat in front of a vase. What they've started doing recently that terrifies me is they'll put like a poltergeist in the photo. What's that mean? It's just a ghost. It's like a person moving.
Starting point is 00:15:39 Oh. But have you seen these? Yeah, I've seen that. They're moving and it's kind of like an action shot. It's just like someone who's moving and it looks like a ghost in the middle of the bedroom. A walking wardrobe with fucking Casper inside. Have you seen what I'm talking about? I've seen.
Starting point is 00:15:54 Mitchell, I'm going to find it for you. See, I've never looked on that website. I've got the opposite where I feel like they don't need to chill out real estate agents. They need to try a bit harder because it's such a competitive rental market in a rental crisis. They're not even trying because they know that people are going to be begging for this place. We've gone to inspections and the real estate have been like, frankly, so rude. Like, you know how usually it's like a, hello, come on in. Have you registered? It's like they open it and they go, yep, they go. And they don't show us around. They just kind of stand there at the door waiting for everyone to leave.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Just the attitudes on them. They're like, yeah, you're desperate and we know that. I agree. So in my building there's a few rentals. Sometimes I get home when there's an inspection and the real estate agents, level seven, go up. Yeah, exactly. They don't give a fuck. No, but I'm like, I'm not here.
Starting point is 00:16:38 I actually live here. And they're like, yeah, sure. Are you up to level 11? Totally. I remember back in the day when real estate agents would have cookies or mints or Mentos at least for you to welcome to the house. Would you like a cookie? But now they don't even make eye contact and they give you a mobile number.
Starting point is 00:16:53 If you apply for a place, they don't even tell you if you didn't get it. Really? It's ghosted. See, ghosted. Great use of the term. Because these ghouls in these photos, I have to find one for you because they must do like a slow shutter where a woman is rushing to the kitchen. But they just keep her in rushing and it's scary. Shall we?
Starting point is 00:17:11 Scroll through these photos and tell me they're not terrifying, Mitchell. This is a beautiful apartment. Look at that woman, that ghost. Running through the holes. Keep scrolling. Oh, God. She's hellish looking. Yes, she looks like a ghoul.
Starting point is 00:17:23 Isn't it normal to post photos of the empty house so you can imagine yourself living in it? Yes. Oh, I put this there, put this there, but they've just got this fully furnished and someone living in the house. And guess what? Obviously, for identity reasons, they don't show the person's face. So it's just the back of their head or their side profile with a blurred face.
Starting point is 00:17:39 And it looks like she's sprinting around the house. It looks like she's running from a murderer, from a killer. But also, how did they hire this person? I'd love to know. An actor or an extra? She's walking through Newtown. Ghosts, ghouls, like people needed for real estate shoot. How flattered would you be if you got that fucking
Starting point is 00:17:55 casting call from your agent? We need someone that looks spooky and faceless. Well, Jenna, there you go. I've got some work for you. Thank you. Is it just me? You can follow the show online. Just search Couple of Mitches.
Starting point is 00:18:13 If you don't, you're a little bitch. All right, coming up in episode 230. I was just about to make a joke. It's not appropriate. What was it? No, don't worry. 230. No, I wasn't.
Starting point is 00:18:22 No, we can't do that. That's awful. Go on, do it. No, that's so... I can't actually remember the that. That's awful. Go on, do it. No, that's so, I can't. I can't actually remember the joke. It's a Chinese, you go to a Chinese dentist and your appointment time is tooth hurt-y. Oh, I didn't know that that was the setup. Yeah, tooth hurt-y.
Starting point is 00:18:34 I didn't know it was, I thought it was just tooth hurt-y. Yeah, I've never heard anything about Chinese. It's just, when's the best time to go to the dentist? Tooth hurt-y? Yeah, when I say I've got a dentist appointment, tooth hurting. Is it a tooth hurting? Are you sure? I don't want it to be rooted in some sort of ignorance.
Starting point is 00:18:51 I don't think it is. Really? I've never heard that version. Anyway, what's happening on Wednesday's episode? I am bringing a TikTok school to the table. Fantastic. And let me tell you, the IJM card. We're doing well this month, girls and gals and gays,
Starting point is 00:19:02 because I have made a purchase on TikTok shop again. And this is an item that is currently the most outsold number, the number one seller on TikTok shop this year. What do you mean by the TikTok shop? Because I don't know what you're talking about when you say that. Oh, TikTok shop is like, you know how people sell crystals and this product. Do you just mean people selling stuff or is there like a Facebook marketplace section on TikTok now? In America there is. It's called TikTok Shop. But in Australia we don't have it yet.
Starting point is 00:19:27 But you still get sold a lot of the products. You just buy them from their private links. Didn't you buy some lollies for Pig Week? Yes, I did buy some lollies. Yeah. But this week, you know what? It's going to make your skin glow. It's going to make your gut churn.
Starting point is 00:19:40 And it's apparently going to make us live 10 years longer, this product. Oh, my God. You're so gullible. I'm not gullible. I've been using it and I look great. Actually, I want it. Yeah, but it also might make you vomit on the table. So who knows?
Starting point is 00:19:52 We'll roll the dice, won't we? Yeah, of course. So that's coming up in episode 230. I don't know if you've ever been the teacher in one of our TikTok school segments. This will be good. Oh, my God, yeah. Yeah. It's usually me bringing some nonsense to the table.
Starting point is 00:20:03 Tables have turned, you guys. I'm teaching. Do you want to write that down in the notebook? Oh, yeah. Also, the God, yeah. Yeah. It's usually me bringing some nonsense to the table. Tables have turned, you guys. I'm teaching. Do you want to write that down in the notebook? Oh, yeah. Also, the pen stopped working. For fuck's sake. It's 30 years old. Just rub it between your hands.
Starting point is 00:20:12 Does that work? It's too small. It's the ink flowing. She's going to snap it. All right, yeah, so that's coming up. Do you want to hear my, is it just me in the meantime? Yeah, I'm ready. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:20:20 Speaking of TikTok, this flows beautifully. Bradley, let's go. Is it just me or? Are you fucking sick of hearing the word demure? Oh, yes, absolutely, 100%. I mean, I am now, but I have to say, roll the tapes. I was on it before the whole world was. I slipped in a demure reference on this podcast and you didn't even realise.
Starting point is 00:20:44 No, literally this time last week you said to me, oh, you look nice, very demure, very mindful. And I thought, wow, who bought this bastard a dictionary? Oh, come on. That was beautifully described. Yeah. So you were definitely, definitely the first person I heard use those words. And then the following day I just kept hearing it.
Starting point is 00:21:03 Like every group chat I was in, someone would reply, very demure. The next person would reply, very mindful. And they're all going, huh. And I'm like, what the fuck? Where did this come from? What is this referencing? Yeah. And I still don't really know the answer.
Starting point is 00:21:16 Where did this very demure, very mindful, where the fuck did this come from? Oh, yeah. Hoping that I know. Yes. Luckily I do. Because I'm very young. It's a TikTok creator. I actually, I don't know that to give them credit. Luckily I do because I'm very young. It's a TikTok creator. I actually don't know that to give them credit.
Starting point is 00:21:28 Should I get their name? I'll get it. Yes, well, I want to see where it came from because is it just me on the fly? Has the TikTok search function become so shit? Oh, absolutely. Like I search very demure original video and it brings up some stitch with two likes. I can't find the original.
Starting point is 00:21:43 I still don't know where it came from and why the fuck it's caught on. Why does everyone keep saying it? American transgender woman, Julie Annie. There you go. Find Julie Andrews. What? Spell it. Julie Annie.
Starting point is 00:21:55 J-O-O-L-I-E-A-N-N-I. I'm glad you clarified J-O-O because that's not what I would have guessed. Here we go. Yeah. Julianne Marie. Here, Mitchell, this is Julianne Marie. Very demure. Oh, she's gorgeous.
Starting point is 00:22:07 And also the White House has put out a tweet with very mindful, very demure. The original is quite simply them being like, see how I chop my toast in the morning? It's very demure. It's very mindful. So there's no one origin. It's something they reference often. Correct. And it was kind of their catchphrase.
Starting point is 00:22:23 I see. It's got 40 million. Did my makeup demure very mindful a lot of you girls go to the interview looking like marge simpson and go to the job looking like patty and selma not demure be mindful of why they hired you here's your okay i get it that's enough okay sure but why is that caught on why is everyone saying it? It's culture. You can't control it because it's the same way that Brat Summer caught on. People love it.
Starting point is 00:22:50 People can connect to it. It's not stupid. Sometimes I feel like I'm doing this show with Kerri-Ann Kennelly and Kerri Packer, the two Kerris. It's part of the culture. It's what people are talking about. It's ringing. It's got a catch to it.
Starting point is 00:23:01 It's fun. For those wondering, the word demure means reserved, modest, and shy, typically used of a woman. Correct. I think, Jenna, you're quite demure. But I don't think they're using it correctly because they say, oh, that's very demure, very mindful, to something that isn't reserved, shy, or modest. I know.
Starting point is 00:23:15 It's kind of just a bit silly and tongue-in-cheek. Has it become like padam, where the word could mean anything? 100%. Yes. It's beyond the actual definition now. Oh, fuck. I just don't understand. Is there something fucking busted about my TikTok feed?
Starting point is 00:23:28 Because I don't get this stuff. I just think you've got the TikTok feed of a hoselic woman. I mean, it's probably true. Do you want me to have a look at what's on my feed right now? Let's go to each other's feed and let's have a look right now. No complaints from me. Mine is a Gen A video right at the top. For the next week, I'm not going to be doing really any cooking content.
Starting point is 00:23:46 Oh. Because I'm going to be on a little holiday. Jo and I are going away. Oh, good for you, Jen. Thrilled for her. Good for Jen. That's charming. So what do I have?
Starting point is 00:23:53 Am I going to open my TikTok? 28-year-old billionaire. It's Barack Obama. Yes, I'm very much into the politics at the moment. Oh, okay. And I'm the boomer. Yeah. No, no.
Starting point is 00:24:02 It's cool. Old fashioned. This is some lady's designer bag. Marcy Hirschleven from New York. See, that will never, ever come across my feet, ever. Really? As if designer bags are going to be in my feet. What's it?
Starting point is 00:24:17 Oh, that's someone singing to their cat. Of course it fucking is. It's Six and Gizmo. Good night. Great. Yeah, I hope that cat's final good night. Okay. Well, as someone who's apparently up to date with trends,
Starting point is 00:24:29 how long do I have to deal with everyone using the word demure? I can report demure is done. Already? It's only been a week? Demure is done. Finally. Demure is done. It's had a very short shelf life.
Starting point is 00:24:39 Demure is over. It was brat summer, demure fall. And I can't yet predict what winter we're going to have. But do you reckon Brat Summer's going to be extended because of where we are in the globe? Yeah. Oh, yes. We're going to have a Brat Summer when it gets hot. I know. It's dreadful. It's over.
Starting point is 00:24:55 You are very demure, very mindful. Am I? Yeah. Do you know what's going to happen? I'm so annoyed because I keep hearing the word and then in a month's time I'll start using it when it's no longer cool. Yes. I still use things like hee-hee. Ironically, but I love a hee-hee. What do you mean? Like a laugh?
Starting point is 00:25:10 Yeah, hee-hee. Yeah, hee-hee. Or them-them, up to you. When do you hee-hee? When do you hee-hee? Like I might say to you, oh, can we get here at X, Y, Z time? Just mindful that I need to be out of there at a certain time. Hee hee. So it makes it sound less stern.
Starting point is 00:25:27 It's more like, oh, please. You're using it as an anti-confrontation tactic. I guess. I don't know. I'm big on staying up to date with trends. And then once they die, I like to kill them off. Do you know what I caught myself saying last week? Neck minute.
Starting point is 00:25:41 Oh, no. I was like, oh, no, I can't do that. I said Cozzy lives the other day on air and I wanted to cosy and myself. Wasn't that like the word of the year or something? Yes, cosy lives. No, no, no. No, cosy lives was the word added to the Oxford Dictionary last year. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Which is slang for cost of living. But you can't slang a sentence. Does the rental crisis become rent-y-christ? Thank you. That's exactly right. That sounds like anti-christ. What about rent-y-cry? That's cute rental crisis become rent-y-christ? Thank you. That's exactly right. It sounds like anti-christ. What about rent-y-cry? That's cute.
Starting point is 00:26:09 Oh, rent-y-cry. That's demure. Oh, stop. No, Mitchell, please. That's enough of these two. Now let's hear, and is it just you? Yes, it's time to give someone a limited edition Totally Tote bag. You can't buy these tote bags.
Starting point is 00:26:24 You can only get them by featuring on the show with an It's Just Me of Your Own. You can buy a tote bag, coupleofmitches.com.au, but these are like the premium deluxe tote bags. Yeah, you could fit groceries in here, a dog, a child. Did you see someone posted in our group that they actually put their dog in the Totally Tote bag that they want? And they said, you were right, Cherry, they fit dogs. Have I said that before?
Starting point is 00:26:44 Yeah, the schnauzer. Oh, I need to really engage in that group. But also, as of this week, apparently the prizes will come with a handwritten note from Jenna's Mary MacKillop fucking notebook. Oh, is that what you're going to do with it? Yeah, you said. No, I just meant so you can keep note because you often forget to send prizes out.
Starting point is 00:27:00 It was more for bookkeeping. I don't forget to send prizes out. Wait, so with the Mary MacKillop notepad, you're going to write a custom letter. That would be cute. I agree. Just letting you know, the pen doesn't work well. It doesn't work well. Did the friction not
Starting point is 00:27:13 help? No. That's what you get for shopping at Vinnie's. I think I'll use the last of the ink. See, you can probably understand why someone donated this to Vinnie's because they were like, this fucking tiny ass notebook is so impractical and the pen sucks. But also the fact that Vinnie's put it at $5. A lot of money.
Starting point is 00:27:32 It's quite steep. Also, I love how it says Vinnie's $5 sold as is, but there's a sticker underneath it. So that was the discounted price. Let's have a look. I'm going to peel the original. Okay. See, how much do we both reckon? It's like the price is right.
Starting point is 00:27:45 What price was originally on this? I reckon maybe $ original. Okay. See, how much do we both reckon? It's like the price is right. What price was originally on this? I reckon maybe $13. Okay, ready? I think $10. It was $5, and now before, it was $5. Why did they double-sticker it? What a waste. See, now Mary McKillop was big on the environmental.
Starting point is 00:27:59 She'd be rolling in her team if she knew. Hold on. She is. I can hear it. All right, let's get Is it Just You caller on. Now, we're going to Brisbane today. Gorgeous. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:09 We're going to talk to Talia up in Queensland. Let's give her a call. Brisbane dial tone. Hi. Hello. Is that Talia? Yes. Hi, Barb.
Starting point is 00:28:20 You're on the podcast. What's happening? Hi. Hi. Hi. Oh, this is so surreal. What are you doing right now? Paint us a picture.
Starting point is 00:28:27 Everything you're doing, wearing, and how you smell. Well, I'm in home clothes today because I'm doing uni work from home. Oh, good girl. Love, what are you studying? I'm doing interior design and business. Oh, my God. Smart cookie. I love that.
Starting point is 00:28:43 What's your design style? Are're a mid-century girl or brutalism um well i'm like french provincial like modern classic like honestly i appreciate it all i don't even know what that means french provincial french provincial i don't think it'd be your style mitchell to be honest. What makes you say that? It's like farmhouse and stuff. Hello? No. Yeah, it is. Mitch, you would like it.
Starting point is 00:29:09 You reckon, Mitchell, like French provincial? Oui. It's very, like, white. Yeah, well, that's Mitch's bread and butter. Can you give us, Talia, give us each our style, like our era, or our interior design, like era. Architectural style. Yeah, that's what I our interior design, like era. Architectural style.
Starting point is 00:29:26 Yeah, that's what I'm thinking of. Thank you. Put that in the Marama Killip notepad. Based on our personality. So you think Mitch is French provincial or do you want to rename him? Well, no, I feel like rustic country. Like I feel like. Yeah, that's more me.
Starting point is 00:29:38 I agree. Yeah. With like pops of like colour, you know? Yeah. Very eclectic. Yes. Mitch does have eclectic taste. And that's bang on.
Starting point is 00:29:47 You've got pops of colour in your living room. Yeah, I think I've actually gone too far with it. Some days I get a headache. There's too much colour in my house. All right, what about me, Talia? Beige. Beige. I reckon like modern, same like pops of colour.
Starting point is 00:30:03 You know, like you've got to have colour in your life. Lots of colour. It's the only way to live. Okay. All right. And then Pricekeeper Jenna, brutalism. What about, like, medieval? Medieval. Yeah, yeah, I like that.
Starting point is 00:30:15 Lots of concrete, spires for decapitated heads and whatnot. Bring it on. Yeah. All right. Well, thanks, Talia. I like that. Let's get an Is It Just You, something you've noticed you hate or appreciate. And we're ready to go. Are you ready to go? Just checking. I am, yeahia. I like that. Let's get an Is It Just You, something you've noticed you hate or appreciate. And we're ready to go.
Starting point is 00:30:26 Are you ready to go? Just checking. I am, yes. I'm waiting for the sound. All right, Bradley, I'll count you in. Here we go. Is it just me or? Do you want to look back at your primary school assignment?
Starting point is 00:30:45 Oh, interesting. Why do you want to? How old your primary school assignment? Oh, interesting. Why do you want to? How old are you, by the way? Because she's like, it was last year. No, so I graduated year six, 2017. So I'm 19 now. Right. So I remember creating like this seven minute radio snippet with my friend.
Starting point is 00:31:07 Wow. And it was so fun. And I would do anything to just like listen back to it. Oh, you've got to get better at archiving, babes. Yeah, I don't know. I know exactly what you mean. I remember in year five, I did a TV report, like a fake TV report on penguins in Antarctica. And it was incredible.
Starting point is 00:31:26 And I got sound effects people behind me going, and all that. And I would do anything to listen to, to watch that again. You know what? I would give anything to also go back and watch my PowerPoint presentation on the golden lion tamarin monkey. I still remember it. They're endangered. They live in the rainforest under the canopy cover. I know all about them.
Starting point is 00:31:44 I know what they sound like. It's a serious topic. Mitchell, do you remember any assignment that you'd love to go back on? I mean, I've got most of the digital stuff because I'm a slut for archiving. Yeah, but I've got copies of everything. I've got my old USBs. I've got everything I did at TAFE. Once I left school, everything.
Starting point is 00:32:00 I have got some stupid, cute little assignments like paintings and whatever that mum kept because she's like, that's really cute. Yeah. But like high school assignments and things like that, do we need to keep those? Maybe it's just me on the fly or do we need more like projects as an adult? I remember making a diorama. I love dioramas. And I don't know what was.
Starting point is 00:32:18 I'm stopping you. No, I know. You would use the shoe box? Yeah, that's my point. You know how many shoes I own, guys? I'm obsessed with shoes. I don't keep one shoe box. But back in the day, my You know how many shoes I own, guys? I'm obsessed with shoes. I don't keep one shoe box. But back in the day, my mum would stack those things up.
Starting point is 00:32:28 Because you never know when you need them. When you need them to make a diorama. You know, in fact, are kids these days making dioramas? I'm not sure. I feel like it's all on their iPads nowadays. That's true. Well, it sounds like everything was digital for you too, darling. Well, yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:42 I mean, I grew up with iPads. In year three, I had an iPad, which is ridiculous. That's fucked. In year three, I had an iPatch because I was punched in the face on the playground. No, I did too. I did too. Really? Who the fuck clocked you?
Starting point is 00:32:57 No. I had a lazy eye. So you just patched it up? That's not how that works. Doesn't that draw more attention to the eye? This is only at home. Is that like a training mechanism to make it less lazy? Oh.
Starting point is 00:33:12 Yeah, exactly. I think I might patch my whole face up then. I'm pretty fucking lazy. It might fix me. Well, Talia, I think that's a good observation. If there's any kids out there listening or if you're a parent, do you do dioramas these days? Because I love to do one.
Starting point is 00:33:25 I feel like it is cute for the parents to keep these things so that like one day you might look back at it and go, oh, I remember that. But fuck, with Sean moving in, he kept like his year 12 art major work. I don't even know what it is, but it involves four light boxes. And I'm like, here we are trying to be minimalists, trying to do a big car, and you're bringing your Year 12 major work. Put it in Mum's garage.
Starting point is 00:33:47 We don't need that here. How often do you look back at that? On the fly. But is someone's Year 12 major work terrible to everyone else but the best thing in the world to that one person? I don't even know if it's that great for me. I've got Year 12 major works back at home, but I'm like, Mum, you can get rid of them if you want.
Starting point is 00:34:02 Anyway, that's my take on major works. My Year 12 major work was a program and poster for Barefoot in the Park. What's that? It was some fucking movie or play or something. Yeah, I didn't want to do a monologue in drama, so I chose programs and promotions. Not many people did. I did graphic design on Microsoft Word. That's fucking impressive.
Starting point is 00:34:19 That's very impressive. Yeah, that is very cool. Wow. Wow. I did a monologue and then I did a group performance. It was very fun. Yeah, I had to do the group performance. I didn't do drama.
Starting point is 00:34:28 You didn't? What? No, I did it out of school. I did drama. Yeah. Did you? And you had to do the group performance? Yes.
Starting point is 00:34:35 We did like multiple. It was an interesting time. Multiple? Yeah. Well, like up in Queensland, we have like and then, like, we do the same thing in year 12. So, like, year 11 is, like, a practice run. It's a dress rehearsal.
Starting point is 00:34:50 Yeah. So, like, we're all, like, worried about year 12, and then year 12 was actually easier than I actually think it was the same for me. Like, year 11 was more stressful, but by year 12, it's like, we got this. Oh, I was also, like, blissfully unaware of what I... I didn't do any homework. I didn't do any... I didn't prepare for any exam.
Starting point is 00:35:05 My HSC, I flunked. I cheated the half of the half the time. What do you mean? What did you do? I just looked over the person next to me. I also wrote your fucking big head. Imagine how unsubtle that would have been. I also wrote all my answers on the inside of my eraser because my mum taught me that
Starting point is 00:35:22 you couldn't do the water bottle. But mum taught me that you had a rubber and then you'd write the answers to the hard questions or keywords to remind you on the on the wrapping paper of the of the eraser and i did it i thought they checked that shit no they checked they checked the water bottle lining you had to have fully clear water bottles didn't everything have to be in a plastic sleeve you couldn't sneak anything in a pencil or a plastic um plastic pencil case and the dickheads didn't check the eraser? No, they didn't. They would have been smaller than the Mary MacKillop notepad. How did you fit anything on an eraser?
Starting point is 00:35:49 Tiny writing. Swear to God. I cheated my way through and I still flunked it. And you were the fucking school captain. Great leadership right there. No, corruption. I was the Trump before Trump. Thank you so much, Caitlin.
Starting point is 00:36:00 What was it? Talia, coming on the show. Pricekeeper General will send you out a limited edition Totally Tote bag. And she's going to write you a note too, Talia. Oh, Caitlin. What was it, Talia? Coming on the show, Pricekeeper Jen will send you out a limited edition Totally Tote bag. And she's going to write you a note too, Talia. Oh, lovely. Yeah, in my Mary McKillop book. You're going to be the first. Jenna has been blessed with a Mary McKillop book and she's going to write you a
Starting point is 00:36:15 handwritten note. Do you want her to slip anything into the message? Something medieval related. Oh, okay. Yeah. I bestow this tote unto thee, Talia. Yeah. Stop. I love it bestow this tote unto thee, Talia. Yeah. Stop. I love it already. Thank you for listening, Talia.
Starting point is 00:36:29 Thanks, darling. Thanks, Mitch, Mitch and Jenna. Oh, what a sweetheart. I love her. Hi. We have young. Wait, wait, Talia. Yes.
Starting point is 00:36:36 Is demure over? What? Mindful. You know, mindful, demure, very mindful, very demure. Is that trend over? Are we done with that? Well, I saw a reel about it the other day and I was like, I've never heard that in my life.
Starting point is 00:36:48 She's in Brisbane. She might not get that trend for another two years. Yeah, totally. I'm a little behind at all. Okay. You and me both, bub. I just thought someone with actual collagen in their skin could tell us. We're done.
Starting point is 00:36:59 Let's go, Mitchell. That's the end of the show. Yeah, we should get out of here. But before we do, just a reminder, if you want to come on with an Is It Just Me of your own to win a tote bag and a note from Jenna, send us a text on this number. Oh, 422-948-202. Oh, 422-948-202. Send us a text.
Starting point is 00:37:25 Yep, hit us with your Is It Just Me? Whatever's on your mind. You can also DM us at couple of Mitch's as well. Up to you. Is it just me on the fly? Did it freak you the fuck out when Talia said that she was in year six in 2017? I was like, what? Yeah, we were working together.
Starting point is 00:37:39 Yeah. I was an adult by then and she wasn't even in high school and now she's out of high school. Wait, she was in year six when? Is this a when did I ask her? Are you actually asking? No, I would never do that. 2017. Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:37:50 So when we first. What? Mitchell, when we first met, she was in year five. Oh, fuck. I had this moment with Stephen on the weekend. We wanted to watch Despicable Me because I'd never seen it and there was a new one out. So I'm like, let's watch. And it was starting like.
Starting point is 00:38:06 But the Minion version was like. God, I'm glad that trend died. Yeah. Anyway, I was like, God, this is so exciting. I was too old when it came out. It's fun to watch as an adult. I'm only a year younger than you and I definitely watched it. But were you a child?
Starting point is 00:38:21 I was a teenager. I think when Despicable Me came out. I never watched it. Stephen went, oh, I saw it in the cinema. He saw Despicable Me in the cinema as a kid. As a kid. So did I. Yeah, but he was a kid, like baby teeth. Oh, fuck.
Starting point is 00:38:33 Because how old was he? Well, in 2010, he would have been eight. Wow. We would have had a very different relationship with that movie. He would have loved the Minions and bought all the fucking Minions shit. And I was there going, shut up, you fucking arsehole. Me too. Shut up. He would be dressed like a Minion. Oh, he loved the Minions and bought all the fucking Minions shit. And I was there going, shut up, you fucking arsehole. Me too. Shut up.
Starting point is 00:38:46 He would be dressed like a Minion. Oh, he loved the Minions. Yeah. And he went and saw all of them in the cinemas as a kid. Isn't that insane? I didn't even know there was more than one. Yeah, there's like seven. I aged out of it.
Starting point is 00:38:55 They've got their own spinoff now. Yeah, the Minions. Do they? Yeah, Minions. The movie Minions. Still? Yeah. The Minions movie.
Starting point is 00:39:02 Yeah. Oh. How long did they spend thinking of that name? Yeah. All right, we're done. We will see you all very soon. Yeah, talk to you soon. Yeah. Oh, how long did they spend thinking of that name? Yeah. All right, we're done. We will see you all very soon. Yeah, talk to you soon, idiot. Thanks for listening.
Starting point is 00:39:09 See you on Wednesday. Bye. Is it just me? A podcast by a couple of Mitches. Make sure you've hit follow on your podcast app. Bye. Welcome to AD Debrief, our secret segment on the end. We pretend the show's done and then we just talk shit for a bit. Can I tell you, speaking of high school, do you know what I missed on the weekend just gone?
Starting point is 00:40:00 What? My fucking 10-year reunion. Oh, I missed mine too. Yeah, because you're meant to organise it as the school captain. You didn't miss it. It never happened. Did your school captain organise yours? No, because they're too successful.
Starting point is 00:40:12 He did. He very much did. But I didn't know anyone else going. None of my friends wanted to go. Some of them don't even fucking live in the country. And so I was like, I'm not going to my 10-year reunion. I would have if there were a few of us, but I'm not going if I don't know anyone that well because it's just going to remind me of how I felt in high school.
Starting point is 00:40:32 You didn't like high school. Oh, my God. I hope one of the cool kids talks to me and they're nice to me. But, Mitchell, you are the cool kid now. You're an influencer. Oh, really? Yes, you're the cool kid. You're famous.
Starting point is 00:40:41 You make more money in a week than they make on a year on the farm. Yeah. Oh, it's not about that. Oh, it is. And also, they're the cool kid. You're famous. You make more money in a week than they make on a year on the farm. Oh, it's not about that. And also, they're not all farmers. I was going through the Facebook event for it. I don't reckon a lot of people are going in general because they've had to combine it with the five-year anniversary. I'm going to be hanging out with fucking year sevens.
Starting point is 00:41:00 Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you meant they're like, this is for the five years and the ten years of your own year. They're having two reunions at once. So all the year sevens will be there. I'm like, get fucked. No, don't do that. So you're actually having one.
Starting point is 00:41:11 We just didn't have one because I didn't organise it. Yeah. Jenna, did you have? You're older than us, so you'll be 15 years next. No, I wouldn't. 15 year anniversary. That's next for you. Well, it will be 14 years.
Starting point is 00:41:22 What? You said the next big anniversary you celebrate will be the 15th. Well, I haven't received any invites. No correspondence. No. Were you at the 10th? No, I didn't know it happened. Oh, bullying from beyond the school.
Starting point is 00:41:34 How rude. Yeah. Well, yeah, I was sort of on the fence. I'm like, I do want to go, but I'm not going if none of my friends are going to be there. Yeah, and you didn't go. No, I didn't go. No, they give me anxiety. Yeah, I was like, I don't want. No, they give me anxiety. I couldn't.
Starting point is 00:41:45 Yeah. I was like, I don't want to feel that social anxiety feeling from high school again. Yeah. And I went to school with such like straight white people. Like, oh, they're all going to be married. They're going to have a house with plantation shutters, two gorgeous kids with names I can't pronounce and frankly don't care about. And I want to do it.
Starting point is 00:42:00 Do you know what I noticed? When I was going through the Facebook event, I was scrolling through who is going and I was like, I don't know who the fuck that is. And then I realized, oh, she's just changed her last name. She's married. Oh, that's quite cute. A lot of them have photos of like their wedding as their profile picture. And I'm like, oh, don't rub it in.
Starting point is 00:42:15 I've only just moved in with my fucking partner for the first time. That checks out. I feel like a lot of these people, the high school years. Is that your new totally? That checks out. Does it? What do you mean it checks out? Oh, yeah. Mitchell's behind the times. Then he just got in a partner meeting. Where did that expression new totally? That checks out. Does it? What do you mean it checks out? Oh, yeah, Mitchell's behind the times.
Starting point is 00:42:26 Then he just got an apartment. So where did that expression come from? Some Coles worker that was like, you know what? Give me these bananas. Yeah, that checks out. Yeah, that checks out. Hand on heart. I've never heard anyone else say it except you.
Starting point is 00:42:35 That checks out. Yeah. Oh, well, there you go. There's our demua, everyone. Demua. Why do I keep saying demua? Manua. Demua.
Starting point is 00:42:44 Demua. I had this argument with Aislinn, my mate slash former co-host, not my cup of tea, girlies would remember, when Lady Gaga put out the song The Cure. And I said it's two syllables, cure, and she said it's one, cure. I'm like, it's not The Cure. No, it's two. Cure.
Starting point is 00:42:59 Thank you. And Manua, Demua. It's not Demua. It's two. It's dialect based. So in America, they're like The Cure. Aure. It's not demure. It's two. It's dialect based. In America, they're like the cure. Asian's not American. No, I know, but she wishes she was.
Starting point is 00:43:11 Maybe it's because her parents are British. Cure. Manure. Cure. No, but even if you're British, the cure. I also don't care enough. I didn't know that this whole time doing this podcast, I had the choice to tell you that I don't care.
Starting point is 00:43:24 No, I've just realized. Wow, the amount of fucking things I've suffered through. Yeah, but I just kept telling in jokes. Me and Paul from another podcast. No, no, no, I was saying it wasn't about, I could have said any friend. It wasn't about an in joke from an old podcast. I was like the syllable thing.
Starting point is 00:43:39 Is it cure or cure? I think it's cure. Yeah, there you go. It's not a thing. A syllable thing is just language. It is two. Isn't it fascinating, though? Because you also think that vampire is two syllables.
Starting point is 00:43:51 Vampire. But then you're like cure. Cure. Vampire. Vampire. You think it's three. Vampire. We've been over this.
Starting point is 00:44:01 And what was the answer? We've gotten a lot of views. Vampire. Vampire. Oh, let's do another And what was the answer? We've gotten a lot of views. Vampire. Vampire. Oh, let's do another one. How many syllables does the cure have? Oh, cure. Cure.
Starting point is 00:44:12 But then one of us has to disagree. This video won't go viral at all. Shit, you're right. All right, all right. I'll say something racist. Someone get out on the phone. No, no, no. Okay.
Starting point is 00:44:18 I love how we're resetting it. The idiots are listening. All right. How many syllables in the word cure? Wait, are we experimenting? You're going to lie and say that you think it's one. Correct. This would be great because people on TikTok are going to just think this is the real.
Starting point is 00:44:30 We'll act like it's mid-conversation. Perfect. Can you say cure in a sentence as one syllable? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I'm going to over-exaggerate this shit out of this. So how many syllables am I doing? One. So you're saying cure.
Starting point is 00:44:42 Anyway, the good news is it's all been cleared and they found a cure. So we're happy. A what? They found a cure. Cure? Yes, they found a cure. She's healed. It's cure, two syllables, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:44:53 No. Cure, one syllable. Cure. No, it's cure. No, I'm talking about if someone is sick and you find something to help them. I understand, but you're saying it fucking wrong. No, it's got one syllable. Cure.
Starting point is 00:45:05 Cure is the cure. Are you listening to yourself? Yes, I've got headphones on. I'm listening to myself. Coombs, I think Curie's right. Thank you. And Jenna's a woman. We have to listen to her.
Starting point is 00:45:15 Since when? The cure. You do yours. Okay. My favourite Lady Gaga song is the cure. Cure. That was two. No, you're adding a pause.
Starting point is 00:45:24 No, I'm not. It's cure. Manure. Demure. That was two. No, you're adding a pause. No, I'm not. It's Cure. Manure. Demure. See? Okay, what do you say? Choir or Choir? Choir. Choir. Oh, no. Choir is two as well. No, it's not. No, it's one.
Starting point is 00:45:38 There we go. We'll post that and see. That was great acting. I even got a bit angry. Did you like it? So did I. I was clapping in your face. No, but then I got angry with myself because I'm like, I'm so stupid. Why did you fucking turn your back on me like that, Jenna? Can we do another test? Because you were so right. This is great.
Starting point is 00:45:53 Can we do more tests? Can we just go really Republican, really Trump, like pro-Trump, and just see if they go viral on TikTok? Because they want to hate us because we're two boofs. No, two of us have to be wrong and one of them right. So it looks like we're stupid. Don't have to act very hard for that. Although I can't engage in any sort of political debates,
Starting point is 00:46:13 even if it's for a fake video. I don't know what to say. Yeah, all right. Well, that'll actually be good. That's half of the Republicans. You know, I did a podcast interview recently and it was the Friend Request podcast. If you want to go find my episode, she asked me, do your audience
Starting point is 00:46:26 pressure you to share political thoughts? I said, no, I don't think my audience expect that of me. They don't turn to me for that. And also, if I'm being honest, I just genuinely don't have political thoughts. Right. What am I supposed to share? I don't have one.
Starting point is 00:46:42 Your brain doesn't form them. No, but I love how Sean. Y'all slept on Julia Gillard. There's one. That's good. That's very you. But I love how Sean is in politics. That's what makes it so good.
Starting point is 00:46:51 That's true. I do know more about politics now than ever. That's the yin and the yang of a good relationship. By the way, speaking of Gaga, I was thinking before she announced that Bruno Mars duet, I was like, maybe, before it came out, she announced that it was happening. I was like, maybe that could be our fucking singing lesson song. Oh. Maybe.
Starting point is 00:47:08 Now that it's out, what do you think? Die With A Smile. Yes, that's it. I like that. Am I Bruno? I don't know. Yeah. The thing is, they're both singing in the same octave.
Starting point is 00:47:21 It's not like one's doing a high note, one's doing a low note. Yeah. She's just butch and Bruno's femme. What about, can you do Guess? What's that? Charlie XCX and Billie Eilish. This is more my vibe. You do the Billie verse, I do Charlie.
Starting point is 00:47:33 Of course you're Charlie. Yeah. Charlie uses a lot of auto-tune to her own admission, so that might work out just fine. We don't need letters. Here we go. Do you have the lyrics? No.
Starting point is 00:47:44 Guess the colour of my underwear. You gotta know what's right. I've got British accent. Yes, it is. Is it pretty and pink or all see-through? This is good, Jenna. This is a good view. Yeah, this is good.
Starting point is 00:47:57 Okay, two. This is good. I like this one. Okay, you couldn't write this on sheet music, though. There's no notes she's hitting. She's just kind of talking, which is fine. But if we're trying to learn to sing, this isn't the one. No, wait for Billie to come in. You're Billie.
Starting point is 00:48:16 Oh, don't be foul, Charlie. Post them, mix them, send them to the day. Yeah, try it, bite it. I've gone. That's Billie. Okay, go back. Go back. This is you. She's also not've gone. That's Billie. Okay, go back. Go back. This is you. She's also not really singing. That's why it's perfect.
Starting point is 00:48:32 Why would we go to a singing teacher and take this song? And they're like, I don't know if I can help you. True, it is. Can you talk? Great. You've got this song down pat. Anyway, what else is happening with everyone's lives? I'm house-sitting currently.
Starting point is 00:48:44 I'm house-sitting in Bondi, Stephen and I. You want a cute story? I was going to ask, actually, because I... You know how we're Find My Friends official? Yeah. I wasn't looking for you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:52 Just to put your mind at ease, I wasn't looking for you. Yes. But I did notice when I was looking for someone else, I was like, what the fuck's Thierry doing in Bondi? Oh, really?
Starting point is 00:48:59 And I was going to text you, but then I was like, oh, that'll freak him out. He'll think, why is he stalking me? Oh, you were watching? No, that's fine. No, I just spotted you on the map. I was like, fuck, he's freak him out. He'll think, why is he stalking me? Oh, you were watching. No, that's a fine one. No, I just spotted you on the map.
