Starting point is 00:00:00 People do some weird shit. Television legend Kerri-Ann Kennelly fell several metres from a trapeze while performing in the musical Pippet. Some things make more sense than others. Ring Pike's Nurseries. What nursery? Pike's. P-Y-K-E-S. P-Y-A. K as in kill.
Starting point is 00:00:25 P-Y-A. K as in kill. P-Y-E. K! Brace yourself for the rude shocks of young adulthood. Why is being alive so expensive? I'm not even having a good time. This is Is It Just Me? Hosted by a couple of Mitches. What about me?
Starting point is 00:00:42 Don't forget Chin-O. Who? Now, here's Mitch Chudy and Mitchell Coombs. Oh, for episode 65. Hello, Mitchell. Hello, how is everyone? You know what? Good.
Starting point is 00:00:54 Feeling great on this Mother's Day. It is Mother's Day. I've got to say, I'm in a terrific mood today. I am actually very, very thrilled. Can I tell you why? Yeah. Because I went to the Bottle-O earlier and I bought two bottles of wine. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:08 And the guy behind the counter was like, oh, this particular brand are doing a deal at the moment. If you buy two bottles, you get a free wine glass with it. And I was like, oh, it made my day. It's the little things, isn't it? And he went, only for mothers. You went, what? I got some mum music, Mother's Day bed, just to celebrate Mother's Day.
Starting point is 00:01:28 This isn't Mother's Day music. You're making shit up again, aren't you? It's not like goodbye. Well, you know how I do Easter music and Christmas music? Prizekeeper Jenna's here. Hi, Prizekeeper Jenna. Hello, Jenna. Do you like this?
Starting point is 00:01:38 Is this Mother's Day music? No, it's more like Easter music. Yeah, get rid of it. I don't like it. I'm just searching mum bed. I don't know where it came from, to be more like Easter music. Yeah, get rid of it. I don't like it. I'm just searching mum bed. I don't know where it came from, to be perfectly honest with you. Well, happy Mother's Day to all the mums out there. Michelle, Jane and Roslyn.
Starting point is 00:01:53 Contraceptive diaphragm. Sam, what about your mum? That would be Laurie. Laurie. What did you get for your mother, Mitchell? I got my, well, my mum got it, her birthday is the Sunday before. And it's always that really tricky period. But this year I was very smart because she asked for an iPad, iPad Pro.
Starting point is 00:02:09 You know, Michelle knows what she wants. So all the kids put in and Hayden and I bought her the Apple Pencil. And she's like, that'll cover Mother's Day as well. Just get me some flowers. But I was very smart. I got her a giant bunch for her birthday. And I said to the florist, I was like, I want them buds. I don't want any blossom.
Starting point is 00:02:24 No blooming. These flowers are going to last them buds. I don't want any blossom. No blooming. These flowers are going to last the week until we get to Mother's Day. So we were over on the weekend for her birthday. I'm like, yes, they haven't bloomed yet, so I don't have to buy them all. Stingy, but what about you? Yeah, very stingy. Smart. What did you get Jane?
Starting point is 00:02:38 I sent her a new laundry hamper because my brother's a tradie and he's renovating the laundry at home, and so she wanted a white laundry hamper. So it's hardly exciting, but she got what she wanted. He does more with his life than we will ever do. That man is just, Mark is so capable of everything. I don't know. They're very patient with him. They're like, oh, he works hard.
Starting point is 00:02:58 We feel bad. Him coming home from work as a tradie and having to do more work. It's taken like four years and mum and dad don't have the heart to say anything because he refuses to be paid. I would be the opposite. I'd be like, pay me and I'll get it done real quick. Especially with the parents. Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 00:03:12 Yeah. Like I'll do mates rates, obviously. But yeah, it's taken him fucking forever. What about you, Jenna? Where'd you get your mum? So I got her a scarf and this little heart. So it's from a charity in Africa. And yeah, they hand make it. Does it go towards
Starting point is 00:03:28 any charity? Yes, it goes towards Catherine Hamlin Fistula Foundation. Are they paying you to say that? That sounded like a credit line. You printed that out and I lighted it. Sam, what about you? What did I get? For your mum. Well, her birthday is around about the same time.
Starting point is 00:03:44 So I've flown her to Sydney. We're going to go out for a nice bougie dinner. It's going to be nice. I am getting one bunch of flowers to cover the two dates. Yeah, that kind of shit's on my fucking laundry hanger, doesn't it? Jenna's fucking heart from a dead animal she bought in Africa. Excuse me? You never
Starting point is 00:03:59 clarified if it was fake. I'm assuming it's a blood red heart. Yes, of course. Your mum's got it all, living in that beautiful house in Lane Cove. I've never been to Lane Cove, nor has she. Welcome to Is It Just Me? If it is your first time listening, we are brought to you by Red Rooster. You can try the new crunchy fried chicken. And I tell you what, I've been seeing a lot of TikToks.
Starting point is 00:04:15 People are convinced. Like, I think we started the trend. People now know what we've been preaching since the beginning, that the crunchy fried chicken is better than the competition. I'm so thrilled that I've managed to convert all these people. I've been telling you all for years, Red Rooster is the shit. Yeah. Thanks, Red Rooster.
Starting point is 00:04:32 Let's kick off the show the same way we do every week with an Is It Just Me each. So this is the basis of the show. I bring one, Mitch brings one, and it's something we've noticed, something we hate or appreciate. They're our idjams, our Is It Just Me's. We don't tell each other what it's going to be, but we did say we'd try and make it sort of mum-themed this week because it is Mother's Day, the day this episode drops.
Starting point is 00:04:50 Yeah, I do have one. Should I go first? Yeah, go for it. Yeah, all right. Here we go. First idjam of the show. Is it just me or...? Have we definitely evolved past the need for a top sheet?
Starting point is 00:05:05 Oh, yeah. I very rarely use them. Neither do I. And since I moved out with Hayden, it's almost been a year, coming up a year in August, and we have phased it out. But I am so attached. I was so attached. Hayden had to pry it out of my bloody, sweaty,
Starting point is 00:05:21 clemmy, chubby fingers because I've been absolutely trained and conditioned to believe that you need one. That's my mum. I need one. I can't live without one. See, I think this is mums. Mums do this to all your parent figure, whoever you have in your life, but it stems from someone's mum at some point telling you that you need
Starting point is 00:05:40 a piece of material between another piece of material and the bottom sheet. But I've honestly never questioned it. I just think that's what everyone does. Until you are with someone or you're in the same bed and they go, what the hell is this? I go, it's a top sheet. Of course you never.
Starting point is 00:05:54 I always keep one on in winter because sometimes when I've got heaps of blankets on me, I go to bed really snug and warm. I end up being too warm in my sleep and I become a fucking sweaty pig. I don't want to get that all over the doona. So I do like a top sheet in winter, but summer, nah, life is so much easier without it.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Just chuck the doona on the bed, you're good. I can't imagine without it. It's the modern, you know when you're wearing ankle socks, like the little socks that wrap around your ankles like you're wearing with Vans and low-cut shoes? You know when it comes off your little heel and the little sticky pad slips down and then you can feel it halfway down the sole of your foot? It's like, oh, that's what it feels like, but when you're in a bed.
Starting point is 00:06:29 It happens to your body. You wake up and then you've got a sheet wrapped around your leg. Yeah, it traps you, especially in summer. Mum's like, oh, I put some summer sheets on your bed. I feel that summer sheets are a myth. There's winter sheets and then you fucking take them off in summer and just have the doona. I completely agree. I just think there is no need for them. And Sheridans do make a killing off in summer and just have the doona. I completely agree.
Starting point is 00:06:45 I just think there is no need for them. Sheridans still make a killing off of them. Those things aren't cheap. Totally. It was one of the first things I did when I moved to Sydney and I was like, I'm an adult now. I can rebel. No more top sheets.
Starting point is 00:06:56 And you know when you go through that phase where you're like, no one can tell me what I can and can't eat? Yes. Still in that phase. Well, yeah. The first maybe two weeks when I was living in Sydney, I was just buying that phase Well yeah The first maybe two weeks When I was living in Sydney I was just
Starting point is 00:07:06 Buying the most absurd food I had like a two litre Strawberry milk for dinner once I was like Who's gonna tell me I can't And then I realised Mum was right That's not good
Starting point is 00:07:14 Your heart will Yeah The sugar headache Top sheets You're out in 2021 Totally I'm over feeling like a Cirque du Soleil dancer
Starting point is 00:07:20 You know when they're all like Wrapped in the In the quilts in the sky Yes That's how I feel. Like Pink at a concert. Pink at Kudos Bank Arena. All right, I've got that out of my system.
Starting point is 00:07:31 Thanks, Mum, for the trauma. That's the only trauma I've got from childhood. Yeah, you're doing pretty well. All right, your turn. Is it just me or... Was your mother's razor the first razor you ever used to shave your face when you first started growing stubble? Oh, my God, that's a throwback.
Starting point is 00:07:51 No, my dad really, because I think he didn't have many chances to have a masculine moment with me as a son. Ian avoided that shit with me. Really? He never wanted to give me the talk for some reason. He was like, oh, he'll learn it in school. My dad loved it. Any chance there'd be a bird and a bee.
Starting point is 00:08:05 He'd be like, mate, we should talk about that. I'd be like, no, I don't need to. But no, my dad did shave with me. Right. But I do know my mum's infamous pink razor. Yes, I didn't want to tell them. You know when you notice like the first little hairs growing around the, what do you call it?
Starting point is 00:08:20 Sideburn? Sideburn area, like near your ear. I noticed a few little prickly hairs coming through there and I was horrified. I was so embarrassed to say anything. I wasn't going to be like, dad, like near your ear. I noticed a few little prickly hairs coming through there and I was horrified. I was so embarrassed to say anything. I wasn't going to be like, Dad, teach me to shave. And I could have used his razor. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:32 But mum had one of those beautiful bloody Venus things with the soap either side of the razor. And it's thicker. I was like, oh, this is heaven. The head is like an oval, right? It's a little thicker, where men's is just like an oblong and it's just got the razors in it. Yes.
Starting point is 00:08:46 And then it got to a point where the facial hair was, like, coming back and it was getting thicker more. But I was like, okay, I can't do this. I've got to get my own razor. So how did it happen? Did you go to your mum and say, I need you to shave me? What? Shave me.
Starting point is 00:09:01 With the shaver. What part of that story indicated that it wasn't completely independent? I just saw that I had whiskers on my face, picked up the razor, got rid of them. I didn't need mum to shave me. Mummy, can you shave me? It's not like it's out of reach, my cheeks. No, but it's a first experience. Yeah, and I was quite capable of doing it, just like running the razor along my skin.
Starting point is 00:09:24 Oh, maybe 12 or 13. Yeah, he's fine. You need to be told that going with the grain or against the grain, because you can get stubble rash. We were dealing with two heads. This is in the early days. Hold on. I think we had very different experiences.
Starting point is 00:09:37 I've never told this story before. Can't believe you asked if my mum shaved me. That's fucked. Hold on. When you first started getting pubes, like above the penis, and they come very randomly, like a sprout, like a chia pet, did you tell your mother or your father? No, that's not something I feel the need to share with them.
Starting point is 00:09:55 Told my brother he was fucking so jealous. Really? Yeah. No, I showed my mother. What? Why? You showed her? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:03 I think. How old were you? 12, 13. her? Yeah. I think. How old were you? 12, 13. Oh, no. Wow. Primary school. Primary school. Year six.
Starting point is 00:10:10 So 12. 11, 12. Yale school captains. So very confident. I was like, look at this. I can't believe you would flash your mother that. Like, why? For what reason?
Starting point is 00:10:18 What was the mood? Like, holy shit. Or look at this. It was in the kitchen. Why? I remember it. Mum was doing the dishwasher. Explain to me what the mood was.
Starting point is 00:10:28 Were you horrified or were you showing off your crowd? I was terrified. And I ran into the kitchen. I said, I need to tell you something. And she said, what? What? I went, I've grown hair down there. And maybe she was like, oh, is it?
Starting point is 00:10:41 You know, I showed her and then we braided them. I admire the closeness of your know, I showed her and then we braided them. I admire the closeness of your family, but that's too close. I would not feel the need to show my mother. We were very close. I mean, I was close. I was certainly not raised in a loveless home, but that's not the sort of fucking sharing we did.
Starting point is 00:11:04 Definitely wasn't getting me bush out for mum. Sorry, I've turned this into my story. I didn't realise though, because after I used to steal my mum's razor, I realised there were so many different variations. The razor world is vast, isn't it? Yeah, it's got the big ones. When I went to Woolworths to buy my first one, I was like, God, which one do I get? I don't even know.
Starting point is 00:11:20 Yeah, and then I didn't realise you had to change the head. I feel like for seven years I was using a rusty razor. Probably. Probably gave me my severe acne, my cystic acne. I'm so prone to the bloody razor stuff, including on my legs. I was trying to shave my legs a lot recently. Yes. Because you know how I was like, oh, yes, I got them waxed from Mardi Gras.
Starting point is 00:11:37 They looked good. And I was like, how do I keep them silky and smooth without having to pay for a wax? I was trying to shave them, but I was getting bumps and stuff. And then someone on Instagram, one of my friends, Katie, was like, get an epilator. What? Have you ever heard of an epilator? I'd never.
Starting point is 00:11:52 I've heard of it, but I don't know how it works. They're intense. I think so. They're intense. It's kind of like instead of a razor where it just cuts off the hair at the skin, it like plucks them. So it's almost like a million little tweezers plucking out your hairs at once. It's like a giant mouth thing that pulls them in, right?
Starting point is 00:12:09 Yes. I did want to do a bit of a show and tell. Oh my gosh, you brought it. Oh. Oh no way. It's got variant speeds. It was quite confronting using it for the first time, but now I'm obsessed. Oh, so you use this?
Starting point is 00:12:24 Yeah. Not on my face, just on my'm obsessed. Oh, so you use this? Yeah. Not on my face, just on my legs. Does it hurt? I mean, it's a weird feeling, but yeah, I love it now. Like I'm used to it. My sister Becky asked for one of these for Christmas and she was doing it all Christmas up and down her legs and her ass. It's so satisfying.
Starting point is 00:12:39 Show me it. You know when you shave, if you've got dark hair on your legs, if you shave, you can still see like little black dots. It rips them out. My back is very hairy. Are you going to get your mum to shave it for you? No. Can we give this a go?
Starting point is 00:12:54 I want to try it. No, let me have a look at this. Have you got hairy legs? Yeah. Give it a go. Try it, try it. Or on your back. You could do my back.
Starting point is 00:13:01 I'm not doing your back. Shave his back. I'm not doing your back. Shave his back. I'm not doing your back. Shave his back. Live a little. Jenna, would you like to shave his back? I would love to. Just a little patch.
Starting point is 00:13:11 Okay. All right. God, you're going to have to get topless. No. Sam, can you move the camera? I'm not getting topless. All right. Now, Jenna, don't react to my back hair because it's striking.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Of course not. You can pull the shirt. We ready? Here we go. Yep. Ow! Ow! Jenna, you don't stab it on him.
Starting point is 00:13:32 I did it! You can see it there! Oh my God! Give it. You literally, like, you pushed it so hard on his skin. You just put it lightly over the top. Like this. That hurt!
Starting point is 00:13:41 I feel like the back, it might be more sensitive than the legs. Yeah, I'm going off the back, Jenna. All right, give it back. Do my leg. Do my leg. We've gone this far. You can do that yourself. I'll do it myself.
Starting point is 00:13:51 Okay. God damn it. Yeah, but look at the results. Look at you. Oh, my God. Your legs are white as a ghost underneath that bush pig hair. Oh, my God. How good is that?
Starting point is 00:14:04 Wow, it really works. There you go. And have you done your butt? No. Do you do your privates? No, god, you wouldn't put that near your privates. That would be horrific. No way! I'm surprised at the result. Hold on, but where does the hair go? Probably on the studio floor, just quietly.
Starting point is 00:14:20 Sorry, Jackie-O! Is it just me? Both Mitches are very needy, so make sure you leave a review on your podcast app. Okay, I'm back. God. Like a boiled egg. Hairless all over.
Starting point is 00:14:40 Let's do some Red Rooster reviews, don't you think? Yes, absolutely. Don't forget beauty's pain, Dylan. Yes, yes. You've got to do these things. No, no, no. I've done many a red carpet. Don't forget, the new Crunchy Fried Chicken is available at Red Rooster.
Starting point is 00:14:50 Now, if you hear your review read out on the show, you know how this works, Prizekeeper Jenna will DM you and sort it out. No, you have to DM her. We aren't going to track you down. You've got seven days. Message us at couple of mitches. Jenna will be on the Instagram awaiting your message, and if you get to us in seven days, she'll send you some. You've got seven days. Messages at couple of mitches. Jenna will be on the Instagram awaiting your message. And if you get to us in seven days, she'll send you some Red Rooster.
Starting point is 00:15:08 Yes. Now, I will say this wasn't a review, but I had many messages of people loving Kate Langbrook last week. Yeah. Wasn't she great? Can I explain to you how this works? Yeah. Please do.
Starting point is 00:15:18 We do it so that people leave reviews so that we get higher on the chart. This is an interview, but it's not helping us. Word of mouth is how it worked in the old times. Yes, that is true. There's so many people that would have left reviews and you've just put this prick at the front of the queue. Who is it? No, I can't remember who said that.
Starting point is 00:15:38 What were you going to say? This one. What were you going to say? Nothing. Go on. No. Go on. No.
Starting point is 00:15:44 This is Candy underscore Angelina. You make me embarrass myself on the bus. Sorry. Mitch, Mitch and Jenna, I've been listening to the pod and been a part of Enduring Idiots for a while now, and I just wanted to give you some love and tell you how much I appreciate you all every week. You always make me smile when I listen to the pod every Monday on the bus and on the way to work, and I have to pretend I have to tickle in my throat and cough
Starting point is 00:16:06 not too smart now living in Melbourne. COVID. To cover up my uncontrollable laughter. Thank you Coombs, Turi and Benson for making my world a better place. I feel like I've found my people and you all really mean a lot to me. Candice. Oh, that's so nice.
Starting point is 00:16:21 That's beautiful, Candice. Thank you very much. Don't forget to hit us up dm jenna you've got a week let's go to judgy lisa my daily dose of insanity to keep me sane i love that yeah she's a judge elisa very you um at the end of a hard day of work and being a mom i really enjoy listening to a couple of mitches and prizekeeper jenna sharing their idioms and talk about whatever wacky things come to mind it's my dose of insanity to keep me sane. Thanks for always making me laugh. Even when I'm laughing so loud, I'm scared I'll wake the crazy toddler.
Starting point is 00:16:51 Oh, yeah, you don't want that. Don't want that. Couldn't recommend this podcast highly enough. Thank you very much, Lisa. Now, I'm dying to know what this verbal review was going to be. Have you forgotten? Where are we? You were about to say, oh, this is an interview,
Starting point is 00:17:04 but someone had good feedback about Kate Langbrook. What were you going to say? My sister. Oh. Adored it. Started listening to the show and loved the Kate Langbrook episode. That's it. But she's a cop, which, you know, she's a tough critic. Is that abusing your power family bias? Does she get the Red Rooster
Starting point is 00:17:19 prize, Jenna, if she DMs us? We'll see if she comes back for a second week. That's a good tip because she did hear the episode where we were talking about all the anal, you trying to get me to try anal play and she hasn't looked at me the same. I'm emceeing her wedding and I haven't received any run sheet or anything so I may have been withdrawn.
Starting point is 00:17:36 Yeah, I often talk shit on here and forget that my sister and mother both listen but ah well. What can you do? That's showbiz baby! Alright Becky, well if you're listening for a second week in a row, we'll send you your Red Rooster if you DM Pariah's Keeper Jenna. So when I was back home in Bogengate over Easter. Yeah, the mouse plague era.
Starting point is 00:17:55 Oh, can I tell you, the mouse plague wasn't the problem. It was more the mosquitoes. Really? Yes, they were horrific. They were the size of bloody golf balls, those things. It was weird. They're the ones when you spike them, you can see the blood. You know when you hit them?
Starting point is 00:18:05 Yeah. Oh, that's the worst. Exactly. Anyway, when I was at home, I went to the Bogengate pub. Lovely. And you know how small town communities, the pub's just kind of the hub? Yeah. It has everything.
Starting point is 00:18:17 Yeah, and it's been renovated too, I think I saw. Oh, it's very lavish, the Bogengate pub. But it's also the post office and the general store. It's all in this one little broom closet sized room. Out the back of the pub. Yeah. So I was there. I went into the general store.
Starting point is 00:18:32 Yeah. And I was so confused because there was something on the shelf that looked like what can only be described as a pile of used condoms. Oh. I was like, what the fuck is over there? Looked a little closer and turns out it's a bunch of tiny moisturizer samples. Oh, you brought them with you. I did.
Starting point is 00:18:53 I've got some for you. I've got presents from Bogan Gate. Oh, can I just say, I can corroborate. It does look like a used condom. It looks like a used condom. They've got those teeny tiny little snap block bags. Oh, my God. That you would usually, you know, put medication in. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:19:09 Can I say something? What? I got the same thing in Davo. You got the sample? Yes. You're kidding. The sample and then I actually bought it. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:19:18 This says Mim's Magic? Yes. So it's called Mim's Magic. It's a homemade lavender balm. It doesn't look like it. I know. It looks like spoof in a freaking snap lock bag. Contraceptive diaphragm, Sam, do you want your spoof sample?
Starting point is 00:19:34 Yes, of course. Hang on. Who is Mim and what is their magic? Well, that's what I was so intrigued about. I was like, is there some old lady named Mim living in Bodengate that makes her little lavender balm, pops them in bags for the people at the pub to give a crack? Now, it's in a dime bag.
Starting point is 00:19:51 Are they called dime bags? Dime bags, yeah, because you can fit a little dime in them. And so there's this tiny droplet of moisturiser that really, you can't really spread it very far. I've got it on my finger, that's as much as I can get. I used it on my mosquito bites. There you go, the mosquitoes are in Dubbo too. Can I read the flyer quickly?
Starting point is 00:20:08 Yeah. So it's stapled to a tiny bit of paper, this little bag, and it's got Mim's magic. And I did a quick Google because I was so curious about Mim. Turns out she's not a Bogengate resident. She makes them at her lavender farm in Queensland and they're stocked in all the post offices around the country. Did you get yours from the post office? No, I got mine from the Dubbo chemist.
Starting point is 00:20:27 Oh, okay. Well, she must have. She's branching out. Yeah, I know. Because I saw exclusively at post offices. Anyway, read out the little pamphlet, which can I just say, looks like something I made in primary school. Like this is some basic bitch font going on.
Starting point is 00:20:39 That's how I remember it. The font is very, let me add some memes music because this is... The font is very medieval. All right. Mimms magic. All natural ingredients. Lavender. Comfy? Is he just saying it's comfy?
Starting point is 00:20:53 I believe that's an ingredient. Comfrey. Oh, comfrey. I don't know. God, I'll come for free. Tea tree, eucalyptus, rosemary, sage, vitamin E, olive oil, almond oil, and beeswax. All in that little bag. And it's kind of like pawpaw.
Starting point is 00:21:06 You know how they say that you can just use it to fix everything. There's a list of things. Arthritis, joint inflammation, everything. Apparently, mozzie bites. I'm never sold on those ointments. Hayden grew up putting pawpaw on his cuts. I'm like, get a Band-Aid. I did that too.
Starting point is 00:21:20 Have you opened your sample, Sam? Yeah, it smells a bit off. It's not lavender-y, is it? No, it's kind of like a weird sort of ointment or something. Yeah. To be fair to Mim, if this was created on a lavender farm in Queensland, it had to travel a fair distance. That's right.
Starting point is 00:21:36 This is actually really good. It's probably off. But anyway, I was doing a bit of background research on Mim because I was so intrigued by this tiny little spoof product. She does soap, talcum powder, all sorts of things. But the thing that really got my attention was when I googled Tarkin Lavender, which is the name of the farm. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:55 It has a one star rating on Google. You know how you can leave reviews? Yeah, that's not good at all. I was like, what the fuck? Why are people talking shit about Mim? I had this weird kind of defense. I was like, don't you come for my MIM, who I have absolutely no loyalty to whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:22:08 I love MIM. When I read the reviews, it's not about the product itself. It's just a bunch of people being abusive. They're saying, MIM, you were really rude, running away from your rental payments, left the landlord stressed and devastated. Oh, no. And there's so many one-star reviews.
Starting point is 00:22:27 What about this? You owe the landlord. Be honest, Mim. Nothing is free. Be honest, Mim. Poor lean. Should pay your rent and not rip people off. Wow.
Starting point is 00:22:38 What about this? Good service. Over price of standard scones and tea. Wow. Wow. The lavender industry is brutal, guys. Brutal. Oh, this one's good. Best service I've ever had and Mim's magic is great.
Starting point is 00:22:52 That was left by, oh, Mim. I saw this on A Current Affair on Channel 9. So I think that A Current Affair, or perhaps the landlord himself, has had a bit of a smear campaign against our dear Mim. Oh, my God. And the thing with these reviews, much like the reviews on our podcast, it's devastating because you can't delete them. No, once they're there, they're there.
Starting point is 00:23:17 Yeah, exactly. I can't believe this. And so I feel terrible for poor Mim. I feel like we need to pump her back up. We don't really know if she's actually an awful person or if she's – but by the signs of this, by the looks of the pamphlet. She's a for poor Mim. I feel like we need to pump her back up. We don't really know if she's actually an awful person or if she's... But by the signs of this, by the looks of the pamphlet... She's a beautiful person. And the fact that she's putting little...
Starting point is 00:23:29 This is at least one pump of Mim's magic. Not even. Not a tiny sample. And it looks feral. I wish you could see it. Can we just put a photo up on the Instagram of just this? Yeah, we will. I've used online already.
Starting point is 00:23:40 She has to be a sweet old lady. That's what I picture as well. That's what I'm thinking. I also want to point out very quickly that on the website it says, caution, avoid using for the first four months of pregnancy because there may be a history of miscarriage. What? Excuse me?
Starting point is 00:23:55 Should we call Mim? Because her number's on the pamphlet. She's very clearly inviting. I was hoping that you would think the same thing as me because I do want to hear her side of the story. She's been hammered with poor reviews. I feel sorry for poor Mim. You know what? I think we should call her because I think it might throw her off.
Starting point is 00:24:12 I think Dot should call. I can get Dot in. She's here. She had a podiatrist appointment so she's waiting in the off-air room. Oh God, I hate it when you do this. I can bring Dot in. I think Dot went to school with Mim as well. Dot, come in! She's going to have to Dot in. I think Dot went to school with Mim as well. Dot, come in!
Starting point is 00:24:28 She's going to have to come in. Well, she was at the podiatrist, so she's limping. She's got ingrowns on every toenail. Dot is Mitch's alter ego. A very old woman, if you're new here. Her whole foot is... Don't come in. This is that door, Dot. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:24:39 Come in, Dot. It's her club foot. Oh, no. Take a seat up there. Would you some mims magic dot yes i've got a sample for you this looks like when philip was in town in the 60s won't go into that god rest his soul don't dot don't get yourself in trouble all right i'm gonna dial the number this one yes number. This one? Yes. You have reached the message bank of 0-4-2-2-4.
Starting point is 00:25:21 Mimps! Try again. She might think we're a debt collector, not a customer. Here I am. I'm dying one more time for you, Dot. Dot? No. Come on.
Starting point is 00:25:44 Come on, Mim. You have reached the message bank of 0-4-2-2. The message bank always sounds like someone answering. Cut it off. Goodness me. All right, well, Mim's MIA. Did you find the Occurrent Affair thing, Sam? I did, actually.
Starting point is 00:25:59 Oh, God. Can we have a look? Yeah, hang on. I don't want this to persuade my opinion of Mim. I wanted to hear her side of the story, you know. Agreed. Go on, let's just watch it. All right, can you play it through the desk, Mitch? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, go.
Starting point is 00:26:12 You know, we're looking at a property over a million dollars and I have a person squatting on it. You haven't been paying the rental payments to the owner... Oh, is that him? I'm stuck here until he fixes the things. She's the proud business owner who's managed to avoid paying rent for almost an entire year. Wow.
Starting point is 00:26:31 So you're refusing to pay him any money at all? That's right. But Amelia Tester claims there's a valid reason why. The building's not up to standard. The contract that we signed off on, he was supposed to fix the water and the building. Fair. Frank Vendetti bought this property in Queensland.
Starting point is 00:26:52 Sunshine cost him to land. She's wearing purple, by the way. She's everything I thought that she would look like. Yeah, me too. I pictured her to be a bit more hippie. Like, I thought she'd have, like, a bandana on, really long hair and, like, lots of jingly jaws, you know. Wind chimes. Oh, the wind chimes. I was she'd have a bandana on, really long hair and lots of jingly jewels. Oh, the wind chimes!
Starting point is 00:27:08 There's a room full of wind chimes. Okay, this is getting caught up now in the semantics. I've got to say so far, I'm team Mim because I have had landlords try and sting me for things, repairs that they didn't do and we were hassling them saying,
Starting point is 00:27:23 you need to fix this, you need to fix that. And then when we moved out, they tried to charge us for it. Jen has just come from court. I was in court. Oh my God. So I'm on Mim's side. Hold on. We can be pending a phone call with Mim and Dot.
Starting point is 00:27:34 We can be team Mim and we can be the ones that can rally around to get up her Facebook ratings back. Yeah, it's her Google reviews. So if you Google Tarquin Lavender, I implore our good-hearted listeners to go and leave a positive review. Let's do one now, actually. Yeah, yeah. Sam's bringing it up on Google.
Starting point is 00:27:53 Contraceptive. Diaphragm, Sam. This website. Hold on. Go to the other one that has more reviews. See how one has 24. There we go. Wait, is that the gift shop? Sam, can you type? Sure. Five stars, obviously.
Starting point is 00:28:08 Okay, five stars. Five stars. Okay, five. There we go. Five stars. Share detail of your own experience at this place. Are we going to lie? No, because you've got her mini samples at Bogan Gate.
Starting point is 00:28:17 Well, Jenna, you've actually got a tub. So what did you think of it? I used it on my mosquito bites and I found it particularly comforting and soothing. Just write that. Why don't we start with, couldn't be more complimentary of Mim and her products. Yes. Couldn't be more thrilled. Thrilled.
Starting point is 00:28:37 With this balm. Thrilled with this balm. Yes, because it is a balm. Yes, with this balm. Comma. Because it is a balm. Yes. With his balm.
Starting point is 00:28:43 Comma. It has soothed and healed my many aching sores. Arthritis. And maybe like ferocious mosquito bites. Ferocious mosquito bites. Ferocious in capitals. Nice touch. Yes, I like that. I don't think that's how you spell ferocious, but whatever.
Starting point is 00:29:00 Nice touch. CDC. Let's go for it. CDS. Why don't you then just say, Mim, you also have never not missed a rent payment. No, no, no. Don't address that. I'm just taking a photo of the little come back.
Starting point is 00:29:17 And I think you should attach that because there's a bit where you can. I don't think we addressed the rent, Sam. Why don't you just say, I have recently seen a production of Rent. Just so the word Rent is in a five-star review. I was able to sit through a three-hour production of Rent without getting itchy for the first time in decades. Decades. Decades in capitals as well. We still haven't spoken to Mim.
Starting point is 00:29:43 What if she's a right old cow? She's not, though. Didn't we have something else to do on the show? I'll text Mim and say, call me back. Yeah. And hopefully before the end of the show, she calls back. Yes, I actually have. Have you got the photo?
Starting point is 00:29:55 Yes. All right, here we go. Do it, do it. All right, ready? In three, two, one. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I was going to get a drum roll. Oh, well, fucking no time like the present.
Starting point is 00:30:04 Sorry, sorry. Mim's desperate for redemption now. Yes. Oh, poor, wait. I was going to get a drum roll. Oh, well, fucking no time like the present. Sorry, sorry. Mim's desperate for redemption now. Yes. Oh, poor Mim. There's 21 bad reviews. If we get at least 21 positive, then she'll be around the three star mark. Yeah. I reckon we've got enough listeners to back Mim here.
Starting point is 00:30:16 I think we do. All right. We've put a photo in. We've left a review. Ready to submit. Three, two, one. Post. It's over. Let's two, one. Post.
Starting point is 00:30:25 It's over. Good news. Thank you for your reviews. We will rebuild, Mim. Yes. We will. What have you got in the meantime? I have found another mispronunciation. Blinds.
Starting point is 00:30:40 Oh, there were so many unknowns. Micro YV. No. I am on the lookout. I think we the lookout. I think we all are. Whenever we hear someone say something even remotely wrong, we jump on it. Yeah, sometimes I accuse people of saying things even though they were correct. I'm like, that was wrong.
Starting point is 00:30:54 I'm just desperate for them. I'm starving for them. Now, this one will sound like I'm doing just that, but this was sent me from a friend. This comes in from Nova, which is a national radio station. It's also our competition. Yes, it's our rival. Yeah, very similar radio brands. I mean, we beat them in almost every market.
Starting point is 00:31:09 However, this is my direct competition. This is Smallsy Surgery. Oh, my God. This is a Smallsy mispronunciation. No way. You bitch. No. I've seen you slagging off your rival.
Starting point is 00:31:20 But we're friends. We know each other. Like, it's all very friendly. Right, okay. He was sick about two nights ago. Uh-huh. And he had a fill-in. Now, apparently they couldn't get any Nova fill-ins,
Starting point is 00:31:31 so they had to dip into the Smooth FM. Oh, very different vibe. Are you joking? The answer! Yes. Now, which, as you know. Can I do my Smooth FM impression for those who haven't heard it? Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 00:31:42 Do you want to get you a Smooth song? Yeah, maybe like a. Yeah, what Do you want to get you a smooth song? Yeah, maybe like a... Yeah, what do you think? What's a smooth song? Maybe like a My Heart Will Go On or something by Celine Dion. The presenter they've got in the morning on Smooth, she... Boga. Yeah, she overuses and overpronounces the letter S.
Starting point is 00:31:58 Yeah. Well, good morning, Sydney. I hope you're having a splendid Tuesday morning. I hope you're having a sunny start to the day. We're going to kick things off and keep you relaxed here at Smooth. Oh, why'd they cut off the intro? Anyway, you get what we're dealing with. Yes, it's very that.
Starting point is 00:32:14 Different vibe to fucking FM, like commercial hit radio. Oh, yeah. For me to be like, coming up. Dua Lipa. That's what we do. Me and Smalls is what we do. Coming up, Dua Lipa. Hope you're having a fabulous evening here at Smooth.
Starting point is 00:32:25 I hope you're cosied up by the fire with a hot chocolate, maybe a wine. This is Smooth. So they had a Smooth announcer on for Nova, and he was doing quite well, but he sounds way up there in age. This is one of the biggest songs in the world at the moment. Right? Kid Leroy.
Starting point is 00:32:43 Yeah, Kid Leroy. We all know who this is, yeah? Without you. Without you. I love the new Miley version. Yes. That's just so I can criticise it so we can legally get away with playing it. Anyway, this announcer was clearly talking about the Kid Leroy coming up on the show
Starting point is 00:33:00 and he had clearly never heard of him before. Let's roll the audio. It's not the number one tune of the night. That's reserved for the Kid Lowry and Miley Cyrus. Without You is on the way now. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Kid Lowry.
Starting point is 00:33:15 I thought maybe he did that live and he read the run sheet and he went, oh, I don't have time, let's go with Lowry. An hour and a half later. In there as well. How much do remixes with different artists getting involved is a big thing at the moment. The one for Miley and the Kid Lowry. Again.
Starting point is 00:33:32 Nobody corrected him at all. Nobody. That was an hour later. The Kid Lowry. I don't know what to do with that mispronunciation. But it's not even spelt Lowry. Also, the problem is, is it's two. It's La and he's going Low and then Roy and he's going Rie.
Starting point is 00:33:50 Yeah. Do you know what I loved? Yeah. The sequel to Finding Nemo, Finding Dowry. That was brilliant. We got there. We got there. Well done.
Starting point is 00:33:58 It's hard. It's hard. Yeah, why'd you do this? This one's hard. Yeah. I'm on the edge. Yeah. Of Glowry. Yeah. And I'm hanging. You get it. Yeah. I'm on the edge. Yeah. Of glowery.
Starting point is 00:34:07 Yeah. And I'm hanging. You get it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't like this one. It's too hard. It is hard. What do you, what now?
Starting point is 00:34:12 Yeah. Oh, you know what my favourite green alcohol is? Medari. That's good. That is very good. What's that festival everyone went to growing up as kids? It was in the grass. Oh, Splendour in the Grass.
Starting point is 00:34:28 It's hard. It's very difficult. Nothing rhymes with Leroy. No. Oh. What? I love Chips Ahoy. Chips Ahoy?
Starting point is 00:34:42 Chips Ahoy! That's terrible A Howie Yeah No I don't like this one There's none? Yeah I often
Starting point is 00:34:53 If I ever bring a mispronunciation I often think in my head If there's any that I can think of And if I can't I don't bring it up Oh I've just brought it up I like Chips of Howie
Starting point is 00:35:03 Chips of Howie. Chips Howie. That really was the worst thing I've ever done. And no call from Mim. This show's been fucked. God, I really did just want to shit can my competition. I didn't even pre-think about how it would work on the show. You know what we should do? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:18 We should put this entire episode in Jenna's junk. Oh. It is very, very Jenna's junk. We could. I mean, she's opening as we speak. No, don't put it in. Don't put it in.'s Junk. Oh! It is very, very Jenna's Junk. We could. I mean, she's opening as we speak. No, don't put it in! Don't put it in! It's in.
Starting point is 00:35:29 It's in. Should we do a quick round? Of Jenna's Junk? Yeah. Oh my God, really? Yeah. Do you have junk? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:37 There's heaps of junk in there. It's over. It's bursting at the seams, Jenna's Junk. I've got some. Let's do it. Let's take a peek at Jenna's Junk, shall we? Jenna's Junk is where all our rubbish ideas go after we decide they're not good enough to bring them up on the show.
Starting point is 00:35:51 But somehow they get brought up. Here we go. This is very on the fly and impromptu. I know. My junk is full. Well, we've got heaps of crap ideas, so there's plenty of junk to get through. Jenna, you ready to dive in? I'm ready.
Starting point is 00:36:02 Let's go. You're in the junk. Oh, these are terrible. Yeah, I know. Is it just me or does Pad See You get no credit? Me. What? Why don't they get credit? Isn't that just your basic go-to? No, it's all Pad Thai, Pad Thai,
Starting point is 00:36:18 Pad Thai, get Pad Thai chicken, Pad Thai beef, Pad Thai prawn. Yeah, but it's always on the menu. It is, but everyone always talks about Pad Thai. No one ever talks about Pad See You. Yeah, but it's always on the menu. It is, but everyone always talks about Pad Thai. No one ever talks about Pad Siyu. It's the best. It's the better one. Pad Siyu is better than Pad Siyu.
Starting point is 00:36:29 To paraphrase the taco ad, why can't we have both? Yes, I agree. I always get both. At one sitting? Yeah, but we do that thing where you get a bunch of different dishes and we all just get a little bit on the plate. I don't like to share. I can't share.
Starting point is 00:36:43 Why not? I have to have my own. You share your fucking pubic hair with your mother, but you won't share her pad tie. Put that on a t-shirt. Okay, I'm diving back in. What? Okay. The judgment.
Starting point is 00:36:57 This is a segment idea. Oh. Bit or Bob. Oh, yeah. This wasn't an idiom of mine. This was a segment idea that I thought would be good. Bit or Bob? Yeah, you know how people say,
Starting point is 00:37:08 oh, yeah, I've just got some bits and bobs on the shelf, that sort of stuff. Yeah. It's like we take an item and we decide and debate amongst ourselves, is it a bit or is it a Bob? Oh, let's do it right now. I would say this drink bottle is a Bob. Okay.
Starting point is 00:37:21 Whereas. I need to see a bit. Well, I would say a paperclip is a bit. Yes, see, I completely agree with that. What about headphones? Bob. No, they're a bit. I would say they're a bit.
Starting point is 00:37:32 Really? Yes, they're a bit. A bob is more like a side object. No, a bit can be thrown to the side at any point. Destroyed. I would say a bob would. Interesting. See, maybe it's not so bad. It's sparked a
Starting point is 00:37:46 debate. Sam, have you got any items out there? What can you bit or bob with it? Cup! Cup, that's a bit. Cup's a bit, not a bob. Yeah, I think that's a bit, actually. Pen, this pen I'm holding. Bit. Okay. iPhone 12 Pro Max. Ooh. A bit. That's a bit.
Starting point is 00:38:01 No, it's a bob. Fuck. I don't know. Sorry, the iPhone is the bob, the iPhone case is the bit. Oh my a bit. No, it's a Bob. Fuck. I don't know. Sorry, the iPhone is the Bob. The iPhone case is the bit. Oh, my God. I would say the opposite. Oh, Sam's got another one. Tissue box. Holy shit.
Starting point is 00:38:14 I would say Bob. I can't decide. Is a tissue box a bit or a Bob? I'd say it's a Bob and I would like to move on. No way. I feel that that, I think. No, no, no. The feel that that, I think. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:38:29 The tissues are bits, but the box is a bob. Congratulations. This is absolutely ridiculous. Let's move on. I think it's got legs. I am going to my junk. That's shocking. Is it just me or is there no excuse for bubbled window tinting in 2021?
Starting point is 00:38:45 What? It's me. Oh, it depends. If it's a DIY, like you can't expect the world of them. No! I was behind a car in traffic the other day and their back window was just bubbled. It looked like bubble tea. Like there were just, it was black and bubble.
Starting point is 00:39:00 It was horrendous. There's no excuse for that. If I was paying, if I was getting my windows tinted because they weren't tinted already, I would definitely, that's not something I'd skimp on. I'd get someone to do it. You wouldn't want the bubbles. It's like when you used to have to cover your school books. It would kill me when I had a bubble on that. Speaking of Mother's Day, my mum was very good at that.
Starting point is 00:39:19 I think all mums have that innately built into them. No, my mum was not fazed by the bubbles. So she'd be like, oh, there's an air bubble, but oh well, you get what you're given. So I just took over. I was like, no. Oh, really? I'll do a better job. I had to pop the bubbles. Yes, of course. But then there's a dot on your book. I know.
Starting point is 00:39:36 I know. What? Oh, we actually never said goodbye to Dot. She's been in here the whole time. Oh, she's concussed on the ground. Fuck. I've been eating this mayonnaise. Dot. No. That's the Mim's magic. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:39:48 Oh, my goodness. All right. What else is in the junk? Oh, God. Can it get worse? Don't beg me. Okay, I'm going in. I'm going in.
Starting point is 00:39:57 Go sit down, Dot. This is so confusing. Is feel better aggressive? What? Yeah, I wrote that down on one of my sick days. Yeah, I can tell. Oh, that's okay. We've got it covered.
Starting point is 00:40:09 Feel better. Like it's not a wish. It's like a demand. Yeah, they're barking it at you. Feel better. I see what you mean now. Feel better. Rather than, oh, I hope you feel better soon.
Starting point is 00:40:17 It's just like, oh, my God, feel better. Feel better. Actually, I agree. I hope you feel better is so much nicer. Feel better. Have you not heard that? No, I agree. I hope you feel better is so much nicer. Feel better? Have you not heard that? No, I have. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:40:30 Feel better. And I was like, what if I don't? Have you got a problem with that? You can't control it. Yeah, but see, this conversation is, yeah, I agree. I don't like it. And then that's why it's junk. Of course it's junk.
Starting point is 00:40:41 Also, feel better is something you could say to a Tinder date. You go, feel better. Oh, God. Well, that's a different story. That's more of a, feel better is something you could say to a Tinder date. You go, feel better. Oh, God. Well, that's a different story. That's more of a, you're feeling me already, but I want you to feel me better. Or if you're in a regional production and you're playing a regional production of Modern Family, the play, and you're playing feel, and the director goes, feel better. Save some junk for another day.
Starting point is 00:40:59 We need to go. Yes, please. That segment went in the junk, though. The last mispronunciation. And Mim's Magic. I'm furious we didn't get a hold of her. No, Mim's Magic is not in my junk. Should we try one more time for Mim the junk, though. The last mispronunciation. And Mim's magic. I'm furious we didn't get a hold of her. No, Mim's magic is not in my junk. Should we try one more time for Mim?
Starting point is 00:41:09 Okay, quickly. Dot, back in here! She's on the floor. Coming up. You have reached the message bank, Olf. Oh, my ears. All right, well, I give up. I give up.
Starting point is 00:41:30 I feel dizzy. Sit, Dot. Well, updates on Mim. In the next episode, we hope. Yeah, we'll keep you posted. But thanks for listening to episode 65. Yeah, send this show to a friend. If you enjoyed it right now, we all have one of those friends.
Starting point is 00:41:45 Whenever I listen to a podcast, I've sent, Contrasept me, die friend. Sam, I send you episodes all the time of other podcasts. Absolutely. I go, oh, Sam would like this. I go, oh, my friend Gordie would like this.
Starting point is 00:41:53 Or Hayden would like this. Or Jenna or Mitch would like this. You've never sent one to me. No, just examples. No, I was going to say, I've never been sent anything. I've sent you a lot of self-help ones. You haven't even sent that to me.
Starting point is 00:42:03 I'm joking. I would send this to a friend that you think would enjoy it. Get them to listen. And leave yourself a five-star review at Apple Podcasts. Don't forget, we're doing Facebook as well. And win yourself some Red Rooster, maybe some merch. Speaking of, thanks for selling out all our merch, guys. It hasn't been sold out yet.
Starting point is 00:42:17 There's a few more scabby ones left. The misprinted merch. Oh, there is, yeah. Yes. Which is just, I mean, selling like hot dogs. There's only a few left, though. A couple sizes. None that have fit me. Yeah, but go on the store, see if there's one available.
Starting point is 00:42:29 It'll tell you if it's out of stock. Lovely. All right, happy Mother's Day to all the mums out there, all the mums that listen. We have a lot of mums listening. We do have a lot of mums. I know, not to single them all out. And also, shout out to anyone who's missing their mum today.
Starting point is 00:42:42 I didn't know how to bring it up because I'm like, oh, it's kind of rubbing it in, talking about Mother's Day. And I was like, what do we do to reflect people who are having a bad Mother's Day? Yeah, agreed. I was like, do we get someone on to talk about it? And I was like, I know from some of my friends whose mums have passed away, they don't like to be tokenised.
Starting point is 00:42:58 Yeah, it can be tough. It's like the kid with the dead mum. But, you know, we're thinking of you. Yeah, agreed. Hope we could have cheered you up in some way if you're feeling shit. And we'll be back next week, episode 56. Can your buddy believe it? We're thinking of you. Yeah. Yeah. Hope we could have cheered you up in some way if you're feeling shit. And we'll be back next week. Episode 56.
Starting point is 00:43:08 Can your body believe it? We'll see you then. 66. The devil's number almost. Oh my God. Look at Lil Nas X on. All right. See you then guys.
Starting point is 00:43:15 Bye bye. Is it just me? Don't forget to subscribe and leave a review on your podcast app or follow on Spotify. Welcome to A to D Brief. This is our secret segment on the end. We keep talking shit, pretend the show's over. Hopefully no one hears it because we are, yeah, we just kind of go rogue. It's not our best work. Guys, Mim just called back.
Starting point is 00:43:47 What? What a pig! I'm fucking spewing we didn't get Mim on the phone. I really wanted to hear from her. We will get Mim back. I want to talk to Mim. I just want to thank her. Guys, do yourself a favour and Google that current affair video because she is...
Starting point is 00:44:03 A beautiful woman. Beautiful. She had like a knitted cardigan that I reckon she bought at the local market. How bizarre that I stumbled across all these samples at the Bougainvillea pub of all places. I didn't realise her reach. She's in the Dubbo gift shop or whatever. And she's in where you bought the famed Dubbo dirt from. Yes.
Starting point is 00:44:21 What do we reckon Mim's ringtone would be? She's probably at home now watching Big Brother. I'm sure she'd love Big Brother. I have a feeling Maybe Lego Masters. No, I reckon Lego Masters would be on and then this would be Mim's ringtone. She'd just be sitting there watching. That Hamish Blake. Turn it off! Hey!
Starting point is 00:44:39 Feel it? Phone is ringing! Thank you. I think she seems unmarried to me. Really? Yeah, there's something about it. Yeah, I know what you mean. I feel like she'd have the Nokia generic ringtone. She somehow manages to have the Nokia ringtone on her iPhone.
Starting point is 00:44:57 Yeah, yeah. It's miraculous. So you think she'd be happily watching television? Hold on, let me... I think you're right. What are you doing? Stand by. That's why I think Miamma would be in the living room.
Starting point is 00:45:12 Watching the cricket, because she'd love it. Where is that coming from? The TV. Oh, okay. Oh, this is football. Football. I'll umpire you white maggot. Dog! Dog! You dog! Is that mine? Turn the telly down.
Starting point is 00:45:29 Where's the phone? Am I sitting right? I don't know where that is. I missed it! Oh. I think that's what her ringtone would be. I might use that current, don't you dare move the mouse, Sam, that current freeze frame of Mim on the screen.
Starting point is 00:45:49 I might make that the profile picture of my fake boomer account, Bernice. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I really like her tinted glasses. Yeah, she's got the ones that they turn to sunnies in the sun. Yes. I reckon I had that. I reckon Mim definitely steals from the collection played at church. She's got that energy.
Starting point is 00:46:09 Oh, yeah. Her hair looks like the feathers on a Sesame Street puppet. Yeah, you guys need to Google this current affairs story for the visual. I might put a photo on our Facebook group too. Is it possible to screenshot that on a PC? She looks like there's no doubt in her mind that she believes she's right. Oh, 100%. She's like, I've been squatting here for a year and not paying rent,
Starting point is 00:46:33 and I stand by my actions. And I stand by her actions. She's also clearly using it as a business, because you look at the lavender in the background, there's a little A4 piece of paper that she's installed at the front door. I wonder how she makes her magic. Like a big bath or something? That being said, though, this has been on my hand since the start of the episode.
Starting point is 00:46:52 Oh, yeah. And it's now seeping into my brain. Shh. Don't you shit can the magic of me. I have it on my hands and I feel great. Is the sample, does that do justice to the shit you get in the jar? No. So you bought the jar. So you bought the jar.
Starting point is 00:47:06 So you bought the hot... Why, Jenna? Why? Because I had mosquito bites and I was desperate. To soothe. Yes. And it worked. It did.
Starting point is 00:47:14 Mitch, you bought me lavender balm and Jenna for Christmas. Yeah, I did. Not from Mim. No. No, not from Mim. That was Wendy's Witchcraft. No, it's Rustic Lavender Farm in Book Book. Book Book?
Starting point is 00:47:28 Yeah. And by the way, they're also cancelled. Oh, why? Why? Because I lost my lavender eye pillow when I messaged them on Facebook asking for a new one and they just left me on read and I kept following up being like, Oi, hello. I don't feel like a small lavender farm in Book Book has run off its fucking feet that they're going to ignore its only desperate customer.
Starting point is 00:47:51 Yeah. Maybe let's call them instead. Can you Google rustique lavender farm in Book Book? What happened to it? I don't know. Oh, no. Maybe it got took took. It could have.

Starting point is 00:51:51 group people? I know. Unbelievable. Fucking mim.

Yeah. They're still available, but head to our Facebook group, Enduring Idiots. You'll find the link, the discount code, everything you need.
Starting point is 00:53:52 If you want to get a last minute jumper. I think we are also running over Enduring Idiots too quick, because someone was like, I've been searching Enduring Idiots all week. Endurant. Endurant. Endurant. There's a T, Endurant, because you're enduring the whole show. Yes. And you have been Endurant. Endurant. Endurant. There's a T.

And then I will check in next week and do not swing on your chairs. Okay. I used to swing on my chair and it bent back one day. Yep.
Starting point is 00:54:31 They told you. Yep. They told you. They did tell me. You were warned. Did you guys have under desks? I hated those. Yeah, because I was too fucking tall and fat that I'd get under desk scrapes on my top thigh.
Starting point is 00:54:43 Yeah, and the little bits of wood would fall off. Yes! And kids would get the pen and just shove it in, like they'd just flake off the plywood. And they'd be like, Jamie loves Margaret. Can you imagine if workplaces had under desk little tote tray things like that? So dumb.
Starting point is 00:55:01 Well, I think we've phased out the pigeonhole, haven't we? No, I still go to the Kiss pigeon hole all the time. It's where I get all my mail delivered. What about the desks that go up? Actually, I should have gotten my fucking lavender pillow sent here. Fuck, true. What about the desks that go up? Standing desks.
Starting point is 00:55:14 You're right, Jenna. Standing desks. No, I mean the ones, you know, at school. Rather than reaching through the front of a tray, you have to open the top of the desk to get in to the shit underneath. I didn't have that. I went to public schools. Yeah, they weren't public.
Starting point is 00:55:25 Did you go to public school? Yes. What about chair? I don't remember what they were called. Chair covers? And they were little sacks that you put on the back of your chair. And you put the books and stuff. Yeah, like a book sack or a book cover or a chair cover.
Starting point is 00:55:37 Oh, that's annoying. I didn't have that. That sounds shit. It was like a little lip that you put over the back. It was like a library thing that you put on the back of your chair. Yeah. I don't like that. Book cap. Book satchel. It was called something. I that you put over the back. It was like a library thing that you put on the back of your chair. Yeah. I don't like that. Book cap.
Starting point is 00:55:46 Book satchel. It was called something. I don't know. I remember this is so. I loved Book Satchel in Pack to the Rafters. She was a great actress. Wonderful. Yes.
Starting point is 00:55:53 I remember my uncle, when I got school captain, gave me best speeches from around the world. Historic speeches. And I had to give a speech for school captain. And this was like my inspiration. And I was in need. I couldn't care less about JFK or Muhammad Gandhi or Malcolm X giving these speeches, which were transcribed in this book with black and white photos.
Starting point is 00:56:11 But I brought it in for silent reading just to show off. I didn't have any interest in it. And it was speeches that changed the world. That was it. And Mrs. Moon said, all right, Mitchell, why don't you tell everyone you're reading? I went, who's a bi? I jfk one of many malcolm x muhammad gandhi it's speeches have changed the world and she was like why are you reading that and i went to me to inspire it was the biggest wank and i remembered in that moment i'm like oh this is going down like a
