This is Is It Just Me?
Hosted by a couple of misfits.
Brace yourself for the ridiculous shenanigans of our spare wheels.
Fuck the Mitchens.
Now, here's Chugging Oscar, Prize Keeper Jenna and Contraceptive Diagram Sam.
Hello you!
Hello you!
Hello you! Hello you! Hello everyone!
Oh, look at us.
Episode 3 and the Misfits are still going.
You lot can't fucking get enough of this.
I really don't know how this is still going.
It's just we're so good.
Is it though?
Jenna, you're very rarely correct.
And in this case.
And you guys have been so wonderful to us idiots.
You've been so good to us on the Endurance Idiots
and Facebook group.
Make sure you join that one because that's fantastic.
But you have to answer the questions.
Yeah, and you have to answer them correctly as well.
Yeah, don't just push join and think you're going to get in
because you're not.
Because you create more work for poor Jenna.
I'm like, you know, she's already prize keeping.
Exactly.
Don't waste my time.
But no, you guys have been absolutely fantastic to us. Don't waste my time. But, no,
you guys have been absolutely fantastic to us, so
here we are again, and
I can't not bring up the fact that
you all voted we should be going to
Japan. And here's the thing.
I have reached out to the
powers that be that run the Kitty-O.
Yep. I have been
campaigning. You know how hard I campaign.
Don't I just
And I actually have a bit of news with that
And so we do have a
Yappin and Jappin update
We're going to Japan
Maybe
Maybe
I want to get to that a little bit later
Also idiots we have Ask Aunty Oscar
This is something that's happened in ADD Brief
And I don't know about you idiots But whenever I I listen to the Mitches, I give up on ADD Brief.
I can't believe you give up because sometimes ADD Brief has some of the most iconic things that happen in it.
To be honest, I think our best stuff has been in ADD Brief because we don't know what the fuck we're doing on this show.
The first ADD Brief I did, I voice messaged Nikki Webster.
That's true.
That's right.
I actually remember that.
Yeah, I think you were actually there that day.
Yeah, I was.
No, you were.
Yeah, you were.
Behind the glass.
Yeah.
Now you're not behind the glass.
Well, now you're not.
No, but it's so funny because we've been in this studio for about an hour.
I know.
And all I'm hearing in the background while I'm pressing buttons is,
I'm just a little girl.
I don't even know.
I don't even remember how this started.
And it's been said 87 times in the last hour.
Because the problem is I hyper fixate on certain things.
So like when I find something really funny and Jenna,
Jenna is such a bad influence on that because she thinks everything I say is funny.
You're that weirdo girl.
Like if it's just a solid hour, I've just been looking at Sam going,
I'm just a weirdo girl.
I'm pretty sure it happened because I burped.
I think I just burped.
Only weirdo girls burp.
Only weirdo girls are gassy.
And I'm, oh, Christ.
Just a weirdo girl need to be burped.
Look, I mean, we all know that you're a lot of work, Oscar.
We are not doing this again.
I am not sitting here and having my character persecuted.
And you see, this is how this all started.
And I'm going to have to see if I can find this clip.
Because in ADD Brief last week, we got into a little marriage tiff.
Yes.
You slept real good on that couch, didn't you?
I really did.
I need to get myself a better fold out.
But I thought in our little tiff that I was being diplomatic.
All the idiots are going, you were so mean.
The way all of you had my back.
Like, I just want to give a special shout out,
which is why I said to the idiots, submit your questions
because I want to give back and they can ask Auntie Oscar because Sam, my husband, has
been a fuckwit and once again is referring to me being a self-indulgent cow.
Also, Sam doesn't understand the whole talent producer line.
No, he's still learning.
He's on work experience.
You'll get there one day.
I'm a little bit offended about the idea that you're referring to yourselves as talent and just yourselves.
Yeah, but we're just widdle girls.
I think you're just widdle girls with so much talent.
So much talent.
Only widdle girls have talent.
No, no.
If it's your first time listening,
we start every episode with this bullshit
followed by an is it just me,
something we've noticed, something we hate or appreciate.
Auntie Oscar.
Widdle girl.
I'm just a widdle girl.
The widdle girl that you are.
Oh my God, I'll go.
Okay, all right, okay, all right.
Let's just take it away.
Yeah, yeah.
Is it just me or...
If you have more than one sugar in your coffee,
should you be considered a psychopath?
Oh, interesting.
Yeah.
I agree.
Thank you.
Hang on, hang on, hang on.
Is this because you got me a coffee earlier in the night for two sugars?
Oh, you get two sugars.
No, look, nothing to do against you sam
but i will maybe slightly i i it's just not coffee at this point i recently was in a conversation
with someone who said to me i'm such a coffee snob i have to have like this and this and as
someone who is a big coffee drinker i can drink four or five coffees and feel normal.
So maybe I should be medicated.
But they were saying to me like,
oh, I love coffee. And you know, I won't drink
Starbucks and I won't drink Gloria
Jeans. I need like actual like hole
in the wall cover. They were from Melbourne.
Yeah, that makes sense.
Ew. No, I'm just kidding. We love you, Melbourne.
We love you, Melbourne.
Okay, Parramatta, Bankstown, anywhere. Like anywhere that's not the amount of people that message me like, No I'm just kidding We love you Melbourne We love you Melbourne Okay Paramount Anywhere
Like anywhere
That's not
The amount of people
That messaged me like
How dare you slay
The Paramount
And I was like
But can you guarantee
My safety
Nah
Anyway
But they were like
I can't do this
Whatever
Well he and I
Went for a coffee
And I got my
Oh I'll have an oat cappuccino
I get oat
Because I'm
You're just a little girl
I'm a little girl
With eye boy.
Yes.
TMI, but whatever.
So I got my oatmeal, whatever.
And he was like, you get oatmeal?
That's not real coffee.
Oh.
He walks up and goes, hi, I'll have a large flat white.
And can I have three sugars in that?
What a joke.
And do you know what he did?
You know, like the sweetener bullshit?
Oh, yeah. He grabbed one of those and put it in too. Oh, I know. Which then got me thinking. What a joke And do you know what he did? You know like the sweetener bullshit? Oh Yeah
He grabbed one of those and put it in too
Oh
I know
Which then got me thinking
How can you tell me you're a coffee snob
When you've just put three and a half sugars
And half a sweetener
That's just sugar water
That is a cruiser
That's lolly water
But how can you say you like coffee
If it's too bitter?
Fuck off.
Take a caffeine tablet or some bullshit.
He's got a point.
Okay, as someone who has two sugars in a coffee,
and actually, weirdly, I come from a family of two sugars in a coffee.
Oh, so it's genetics.
Yes, it very much is, yes.
I thought incorrectness was hereditary.
No, I'm just kidding.
Don't ever repeat that to your parents.
I love your parents so deeply.
We have beautiful family dividends.
They're very proud to have you as an in-law.
Well, because I'm just your weird little girl.
God, okay.
This is never ending.
But as someone who's in a two sugar coffee committee,
two is the limit.
I feel like the two is the limit, but maybe that's just because that's my limit.
Iced coffee.
Oh.
I went on a date with a guy that had two sugars in an iced coffee.
Oh, no.
I was like, it's already iced.
No, you don't put.
No, no, no, no.
That's already sweet enough.
It has to be bitter.
If you put an ounce of sugar in it, I don't know what it is about me.
If you put a singular speck of sugar, I can taste it and I'm going to want to throw myself off the harbour bridge.
I'm glad that you're not overreacting or anything.
No, not at all.
Well, my old boss, right?
Yeah.
I used to have to get his coffees and he asked for eight sugars.
Are you fucked?
What?
No.
Eight sugars.
Yes.
Name and shame.
No, don't actually.
Actually, no, no, no. What's his name on Facebook? We? No. Eight sugars. Yes. Name and shame. I'm going to... No, don't actually. Actually, no, no, no.
What's his name on Facebook?
We're going to call him.
No, get his LinkedIn.
Yeah.
Just send a message.
Oi, what the fuck is wrong with you?
Eight sugars.
Yes, eight sugars.
That is definition of like...
You may as well just not put the coffee in.
Just have sugar and milk.
And then afterwards, he'd go to the bathroom and brush his teeth.
What teeth? With the amount of sugar in that, they would have rotted off. And then afterwards he'd go to the bathroom and brush his teeth.
What teeth?
Like with the amount of sugar in that, they would have rotted off.
Are you kidding?
Nah, see, that's taking the piss.
And then he got fired.
Oh, well, fair enough.
Because the sugar rush that man would be on, he'd be getting nothing done.
He'd just be watching like the hypnotising frog from Futurama.
That's all he's watching.
Wait, hang on.
I want to know how much sugar actually is in eight sugars.
Yeah.
Because that's just foul.
Hang on.
Oscar, I am calling you on your phone right now.
If you want to chuck me on speaker.
We're doing a podcast, just letting you know.
Why am I joining it?
What?
Okay, hang on. Just roll with me here.
Okay.
Because I want to just go to the staff kitchen here.
Because I want to know how much eight sugars actually is.
That's a very good point.
Jenna, do you know where the sugars are?
Because I can find a stirrer, but I can't find a sugar.
No, because I don't drink coffee or sugar.
Oh, shit.
What kind of...
It's not going to work.
Where's the kettle?
Is it near the kettle?
We've got a lot of champagne glasses.
This is a lot.
Oh, that's because they knew I was coming in studio again.
Yeah.
They were obsessed with us when we did our Nasty Girls.
You guys got to celebrate.
Oh, wait.
Hang on.
I found...
Oh, Jesus Christ.
I found them.
Oh.
Well, hang on.
How many sugars do we need?
Okay. One, two, five. Well, hang on. How many sugars do we need? Okay.
One, two, five, six, seven, eight.
That's foul.
Okay.
Hang on.
I'm so excited.
He's very good.
Hurry up.
Oh, he's back.
He's here.
Oh.
Yay.
Okay.
Right.
These are eight sugars.
That is gross.
Oh, my God.
All right. Okay. Let's see this. We're going to do this. This is gross. Oh my god.
Okay, let's see this.
We're going to do this.
This is so much controversy.
I've got sugar everywhere.
Hang on, I've got to get a mic.
Alright.
That's one.
One.
Nice ASMR here.
Oh, actually, yeah.
Wait, wait, wait.
Hang on.
This is sugar number two.
I hate every second of that.
The weirdo girl's putting it in the weirdo cup. Oh, no.
Get fucked.
No good.
That's how I feel about ASMR, to be honest.
It just does nothing.
For weirdo girls.
Oh, well, it's because weirdo girls don't like ASMR.
ASMR.
Sugar number three.
Okay, three.
Oh, my God.
Eight.
Yes, eight.
Definitely eight.
I can't even say in the cup, but I can already tell it's at a quarter.
Five.
Oh, my God.
Six.
This is exhausting.
Jeez.
An espresso has like, I don't know, it's basically a shot.
It's the same as an alcoholic shot.
It's a fantastic song by Sabrina Carpenter.
Now, anyone who's getting this much sugar in a coffee, please, please, please.
Again, another great song by Sabrina Carpenter.
Eight.
Okay.
Now, this is like reading tea leaves.
I literally feel like I'm about to get, fuck the psychics, give me a cup full of sugar.
Look at how foul that shit is.
That's literally a quarter of the cup.
No.
So how much is in each sachet?
4.13 grams.
Okay, so if we times eight, that's 33 grams of sugar.
That's insane.
That's actually-
That's really bad.
Especially for a cup that small as well.
Yeah.
Sorry, I'm just going to fill this with water.
Oh, no.
I don't even want to look at it to be honest.
No, look.
That.
Oh, my God.
Stir that up.
That's disgusting.
There you go, Oscar.
Ah, ah, ah, ah.
I don't need any more than that.
Oh, yeah.
Knock.
Go on.
I don't like that it's staring at me.
It really is.
I'm not drinking it.
No, drink it.
Drink it. I want the drinking it. No, drink it. Drink it.
I want the both of you to know that I will never stop my widdle girl.
And this cup of sugar water.
Okay, fine, I'll drink it.
Okay.
Widdle girl's twinkie.
I can't tell if I'm going to cough or vomit.
That's disgusting.
Yuck.
Oh, God.
We've gone silent.
Like, this is literally like, this is actually life or death now.
I feel like I'm on I'm a Celeb, get me the fuck out of here.
Like, I won't drink the lolly water.
All right.
No, I'm not doing that. One more. All right. No, I'm not doing... One more.
One more.
Yeah, go on.
Oh, no, you just spat it out.
I spat it out.
I can't do it.
I don't know if I was going to try that.
You were not.
I was not.
Anyway, my point still stands.
Oh.
Okay, I'm now just having regular water. My point still stands. Okay, I'm now just having regular water.
I can't stress enough.
Look at this pile of sugars.
Imagine you're going to a cafe and you've got to do this by yourself.
Yes.
Like, are you just sitting there having a conversation for 15 minutes,
just putting in sugars and the person sitting across from you is just wondering if they're there with a psychopath?
Yes.
No, I'm not.
No, but also having this every day.
Yeah, no, my point still stands.
If you have more than two sugars in a coffee, you're a fucking psychopath.
Anyway, moving on because I feel very sick now.
Jenna, have you got an Is It Just Me for us?
I have.
All right, take it away, Brattle.
Is it just me or...
Are the AI cat videos on TikTok the saddest things you've ever seen in your life?
I'm sorry, the what?
Can you please elaborate?
Because, like, AI cat videos...
Oh, no, these have gone viral.
They're from different accounts such as
Cats Life, Sweet
Things.
Oh!
Okay.
Oh my god.
Oh my, what is this?
Really sad. What you're showing
us are videos, the
photos of cats are being like made in like AI generated images. Yes. And you're showing us are videos. The photos of cats are being made in AI-generated images.
Yes.
And they're telling a story through slides while this plays.
Yeah.
Oh, look at their little faces.
Look at the Billie Eilish.
This is literally the most Jenna thing I've ever seen in my life.
No, but these are so devastating.
The stories are heartbreaking.
Yeah.
Are they though
no they honestly are like the kitten losing its dad because the police came and stole the dad and
then the kittens now at a like the rspca and look here are some comments all i do on this app is cry
actually tiktok comments like some of the funniest I've ever seen
to be honest like out of all the things happening in this world
this is what I get sad at
this happened to me once
bye did I just cry
you'll never see me skipping one of these
I actually cry on this one.
First time I cry over a video.
I can't let gang know I cried about this.
I was sobbing at this for over ten minutes.
These vids make me cry for no reason.
It is better to bring the dove hawk in peace.
Yeah, I don't know, but I actually cried.
Bro, me and my cat are crying.
Why?
Everybody.
The cat can walk at water.
Why am I actually crying?
I start crying. Bro, this is actually sad.
Story of my life.
This made me so sad.
There's just so much going on.
Meow, meow, meow.
Guys, I'm actually crying.
Is it just me?
You can follow the show online.
Just search Couple of Mitches.
If you don't, you're a little bitch.
Oh, I don't care how unhinged we are.
I still think that we're doing the Lord's work.
I agree.
I mean, the Lord wanted us to do this and that's why I'm here.
Because, Sam, I believe it's time for Ask Aunty Oscar.
Yeah, because last week, and we kind of touched on this before, we got on a little lover's tip.
We did.
We did.
And you've been sleeping on the couch ever since.
If you didn't hear what happened,
we had a bit of a couples therapy session
and I actually think that you came up with a very good idea.
I think next week that we should do Ask Aunty Oscar.
Kind of like a Dolly Doctor.
Yeah.
But worse.
Agony us.
But worse. According to like a Dolly Doctor. Yeah. But worse. Agony art. But worse.
According to Sam, but fucking worse.
So, yeah, I said last week,
send us in voice messages
or anything that you want to ask Aunty Oscar
because that's me.
And I haven't read any of the responses,
so I'm going to be hit with it cold,
even though I'm not cold
the heat is on anyway yeah um so i guess sam who is my first patient well before we get stuck into
it i have a little bit of a surprise oh my surprise yes a little bit of a surprise oh
fuck i do well with surprises okay all right hang on yay Yay!
So, fuck it now.
Okay, wait, so we have a surprise.
I'm really excited.
Okay.
So I was telling my dad about the fact that we're doing Ask Aunty Oscar.
Yeah.
And anyone that has been listening to it for a very, very long time and still knows me from when I was contraceptive diaphragm Sam on the other side of the glass.
In the middle of COVID, I started up a new project, which was to find my dad's old records
when he was in bands in the 70s.
Iconic.
And remastered them and I gave it to him for Father's Day.
Oh, I thought you did that.
And something that was so lovely is that every once in a while, Mitchell will send me something
from the Endur and Idiots group
saying,
I've been trying to find
those records
so you idiots have been
listening to my dad's albums
which brings me so much joy.
I love that.
And I've told him about that
and he thinks it's gorgeous
and so he wants to do something
for the show.
And he went away
and he wrote this
such a lovely jingle
for you,
Aunty Oscar.
Me?
Yes. What? Yes.
What?
Oh.
If you've got problems, he's got them too.
So ask Aunty Oscar.
Ask Aunty Oscar.
Ask Aunty Oscar.
He'll tell you what to do.
Oh, my God.
That is the cutest.
That is the best.
Okay.
Oh, my God.
Wow.
Like, I felt like I was in The Nanny for a second there.
That's amazing.
I love you, John.
An icon.
Thank you.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
I love that so much.
Now I'm in a fantastic mood. Now I'm like, my God. Oh, my God. I love that so much. See, now I'm in a fantastic mood.
Now I'm like, yeah, bring on the first bitch.
We're going to call this girl Lovely Tanisha.
Tanisha?
Tanisha.
I'm pulling that name completely out of my ass because she's asked to not use a real name.
Oh, yes.
I should actually preface.
We did give the idiots the option to remain anonymous.
Did you at least tell them what name you're going to give them?
No, I thought of that then.
Okay, good.
Okay, well, I mean, they'll recognise their question, surely.
So Tanisha has written in saying...
Hi, Auntie Oscar.
So I have started seeing this guy in the last couple of weeks.
We slept together on the first date, but now I have
thrush. It's pretty gross, and every time
he tries to go down there, I
stop him. And I think he's getting a bit
hurt by that. What should I do?
Oh, God. Oh, that's
a lot for a first one. Okay.
Well, Tanisha,
first of all, Aunty Oscar would like
to say, very sorry about
your thrush.
I know that's not very comfortable.
I've never had it personally, but I can just imagine that's uncomfortable.
Second of all, I would probably just tell him, like, here's the thing, Tanisha.
I know it's been three weeks.
There's no attachment.
I'm sorry.
Like, all you need to do is just turn to him and say
babe i'm so sorry i've actually got xyz going on down there can we just wait until that clears up
and if he doesn't want to see you anymore fuck him well actually no she can't oh you know what
i mean like in the bin i'm not accepting that look Look, my darling, it's not a horrible thing.
It's not the end of the world, okay?
It's just thrush.
Jenna, does that shit clear up?
I think so, yeah.
Oh, good, okay.
I've never had it, but I've heard that it does.
Oh, good, yeah, yeah, okay.
The one question I could throw to her for that.
Not once in your 400 years.
No, no.
What a sanitary girl you are.
Very. Did she even beat the plague?
She started the plague
actually. I started it and I beat it.
But look, Tanisha,
at the end of the day, if you
tell him and his reaction is not
positive, then he can fuck the fuck
off. Well said. He's not the one
for you, my love. It's only been three weeks too.
Get over it. Yes.
Like, oh, my God.
He doesn't want me because I have thrush.
If he doesn't want you because you have thrush, well, then find another man.
Like, honestly.
Well said.
Adios.
I like that answer.
Thank you.
I agree.
Love you, Tanisha.
Thank you, darling.
Ask Arnie Asker what to do.
Okay. Number two. Oh, number two.
Oh, number two.
Um, let's, uh, I have not picked a name for this girl.
Uh, Jenna, her name is going to be?
Um, Claire.
Claire. Claire.
Claire, love you, Claire.
I've always loved the name Claire.
Yeah, Claire's lovely.
I love McLeod's daughter.
Yeah.
So.
So this is from Claire McLeod, alright. Yeah. So this is from Claire McLeod, all right.
She's alive.
She's alive and well.
She did not die in the cliff fall.
No.
No, good for her.
Yeah, do you know what?
Good for her.
Yeah.
Do you know what?
I always say don't die.
Don't die in a cliff.
Yeah.
All right.
So what's Claire McLeod got for me?
Well, Claire is saying a couple of months ago,
her long distance boyfriend admitted to cheating on her.
Oh, shit.
Saying that he did it because he thought she was cheating on him.
And she wasn't.
Okay.
Well, first of all, Claire, what the fuck?
Why are you doing long distance?
Okay.
Okay.
Number one, long distance doesn't exist.
I'm so sorry.
Oh, that's a hot take.
Like, you can't sit there and tell me that, oh, we're long distance.
What?
So, you're in a relationship with a monitor?
So, your relationship is just talking on the phone?
It hasn't hurt our marriage.
Well, that's true.
That's different though because that's long distance marriage.
It's true love.
No, but you know what I mean?
I don't, in all seriousness, long distance relationships, I just, I don't, uh-uh.
Like, that's a big no for me.
And if someone, I mean, I am more than willing to open the floor up for someone to convince me otherwise.
But it's ask Aunty Oscar, not ask Aunty everyone else.
That's true.
You've got a point there.
So, first of all, Claire, I would like to say I'm very sorry to hear that you have been cheated on.
What I will say is that it's kind of a blessing in disguise because if this man thinks that him going to cheat is okay because he thought she was cheating,
then that's grounds for divorce.
Nice.
No.
Because we live in a day and age now where relationships between two people are their
business entirely.
Now, I do know some couples who have to be long distance for work.
That happens.
Yeah.
They're open.
They sort it out their own way.
Other people decide to remain close.
If the communication, Claire, between you and long distance man has been,
we are monogamous, we are faithful, blah, blah, blah, blah,
and he's completely disregarded that because he thought you were doing something,
that's a red flag and that's fucked up.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I wouldn't, personally, if that happened to me, I would not, I would not even give
this man the airtime.
Now, in saying that, Claire, you are absolutely allowed to give him the airtime, but I recommend
you don't.
Because fuck that.
Sorry.
A leopard never changes his spots.
Ask Arnie, ask her what to do. Hot takes. Hot takes. Nice. Very contrary. I know. Never changes his spots.
Hot takes.
Hot takes.
Nice. Very conscious.
I know.
I'm going to get in a lot of trouble for saying that, I reckon.
But I firmly believe that.
I have not seen a long distance couple work out.
I've never heard of one.
So I apologize if you are long distance and you're going strong.
I'm not talking about you specifically.
I'm talking about the concept.
Yeah.
But you're all more than welcome to slip into my DMs
and tell me otherwise. I won't read them.
So really,
the asking of Aunty Oscar
doesn't extend that far.
But to be fair, the idiots seem to have
a lot of relationship problems and
that leads us to Candice.
And she didn't send in a voice
message because she really wanted to make sure that it was private.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, yeah.
So I'm just going to read this out to you.
A good friend of mine recently went through a divorce, a messy divorce.
Oh.
And they have a son together.
Oh.
She has since found a new boyfriend who she says is a good egg.
Oh.
Now, there are some red flags up on the new boyfriend, though.
Like he commented on her snacking, wanted to help her count calories.
Oh, no.
And recently, she met his mum and she didn't know about a son.
Hang on, wait, wait, wait.
So, as in, she didn't know that the new man has a son?
Yeah.
Oh.
Yeah.
Oh, that's three for three.
Uh-huh.
Surely the new boyfriend would have mentioned this crucial detail.
I am concerned that he's also a rebound for my friend,
but I don't know if or what I should say.
Help, Auntie Oscar.
Oh, God, that's a lot.
Yeah.
Right.
Jesus Christ.
Yeah, there's a lot to unpack there.
So, yeah, let's review the facts.
So, counting calories, snacking, a secret son.
Love a secret son.
Love a secret son.
And we're worried about rebounding.
Okay, well, first of all, Candice, what I'm going to say is,
thank you for coming to Auntie Oscar,
because I don't want to say I've been in this situation,
but I've definitely been around this situation before.
Candice, I think the biggest thing you're going to have to do I don't want to say I've been in this situation, but I've definitely been around this situation before.
Candice, I think the biggest thing you're going to have to do when it comes to your friend is that you're just going to have to kind of be there as a support person.
So a messy divorce, messy divorces can have long lasting effects.
Like it can literally just traumatize a person.
Like we've seen it in all kinds of scenarios now i think if the concern you have is like to the point where you're actually
worried about this person's mental health i would step in personally but i would do it in a home
environment which provides at least a safety net so that you know you're not in a public where
because you know how they say like sit in a public setting where they can't cause a scene yes i hate
that personally i don't ever think that should be a thing really no because sometimes the the scene
is the emotional outburst and sometimes you've got to go through that emotional outburst before you
can see reason like and i i'm getting a sense that this person...
And I'm not worried about the rebound aspect.
That's fine.
Some people need a rebound.
That's cool.
What I'm not impressed with is that...
Did she say how long Good Egg and her have been together?
No.
No.
But, I mean, looking at this, surely it's not got to be too long if she's
feeling like it's a rebound i'd say it's within the first six weeks it's got to be it got to be
okay so another red flag for me is the fact that a son has not been mentioned so a child has not
been mentioned secret son no good secret son if this is where i sort of say okay if he was not
comfortable telling her about the fact that he has a child from another relationship, that says to me it's not serious.
So, I would sit my friend down and say, hey, I've noticed this.
I just want to check in with you.
Because giving the option of saying I want to check in with you, I think that is going to be a safer way of having that conversation without accusations or without emotional responses.
The only reason I say emotional responses in that is because if the divorce is truly messy, then I think there could be a trauma response of, well, what do you mean? What do
you mean? I can't see him. Like, it's not like that. People get defensive naturally when they
feel questioned. So I think Candice, you need to sit your friend down and come at it from a neutral
perspective and just say, I just want to check in. Yeah. How's it going? And if she, and if your
friend brings up any of the befores, then elaborate on it.
But I really highly do not recommend sitting down and saying, I think this, I think that, I think this.
Because at the end of the day, they're her decisions, not yours.
So that would be my advice on that.
I would love an update on that as well, actually.
If you're listening, Candice, and you know this is about you, I would love an update if you ever do anything.
Because that is worrying as well, more than anything, for two people involved.
But at the same time, it's also very cheesy.
Great advice.
You know what?
Thank you so much.
I know I had my reservations, but Aunty Oscar, I think you did wonderfully.
Thank you so much
Ask Aunty Oscar
What to do
You're listening to
Is It Just Me?
The rude shocks of young adulthood
After all that advice giving
I'm fucking exhausted
Does someone else
Want to take over?
Well actually
You know what
I do
I promised you guys
That there would be
An update
Oh yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
For our Japan
Japan
Because
The thing that I did not expect
Is that
You idiots again
Have been so supportive
And there has not been
A single no vote
On the Enduring
Aliens poll as to whether we should go to Japan.
You want us to go to Japan?
You want us to go to Japan?
And honestly, I mean, I think it should happen, but there's some surprises.
Well, the surprises are, and drum roll, we don't have any money.
Oh.
No, but the kiddio.
But there's nothing in the kiddio?
That's what the bank says to me.
I think they might be lying.
Oh.
Are you kidding me?
What kind of surprise is that?
Well, that's not the surprise.
Oh.
Oh.
Hang on.
That's not the surprise?
No, no.
Because when I was talking to the powers at be that run the kiddio and also run the admin
side of this podcast.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Is it just them?
Yeah.
Is it just they, them?
Yeah, carry on.
Yeah, exactly.
It turns out that we may have an ability to be able to do this.
Oh, my God.
As long as we generate our own revenue stream.
Oh.
So I've asked a couple of questions like, okay, well, you know,
how can we do that?
You know, is it a matter of do we, you know, do extra ads?
Do we have to like go do some dubious things?
Do I have to send Aunty Oscar over to some guy's house?
Like these are the things I've had to ask.
Not you trying to pimp me out.
No, never.
Not again.
Not again.
I mean, I know times are tough, but, like, I'm not ready yet.
And so I would like to introduce something very, very brand new
to our podcast.
And that is the Misfits merch line.
What?
We have merch? the Misfits merch line. What?
We have merch?
We have merch.
Oh, my God.
So not right now, but midweek, we think. You'll be able to go to acoupleofmitches.com.au.
Okay, I just want to let the idiots know,
Jenna and I genuinely did not know this was happening.
Oh, my God.
Yep.
If you go a few days from now to acoupleofmitches.com.au,
you can go to a brand new section of the website that says The Misfits.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
What the fuck?
Oscar, we've made it.
Jenna, we finally have made it.
We don't need the bitches anymore.
We're stars.
We are stars. We are stars.
We're going to win an Acra.
We're going to win apricots.
Oh, my God.
So, we have a couple of options.
And at this time, it is all wearables.
So, you yourself can get yourself this very, very stylish Misfit T-shirt.
I'm going to get that.
Oh, I want that already.
It comes in black with the phrase Misfit on the T-shirt.
Very, very nice.
Oh, God, I love that.
That is the first one.
The second one that we have for Auntie Oscar.
It is a hoodie in pink with the phrase chicken.
Oh, I'm getting that too.
Oh my God, Sam.
Chicken.
Oh my God.
I love that.
We also have.
I'm getting that, yep.
Jesus Christ.
Oh my God.
We also have a hoodie as well.
Oh God.
And.
Oh God, I'm so scared.
This is all so good. Compared to some of the shit that I've said on this show. Oh, God. And... Oh, God, I'm so scared. This is all so cool.
Compared to some of the shit
that I've said on this show,
oh, my God.
And so I am absolutely delighted
to tell you that
we also have a design
that says right here,
self-indulgent cow.
Oh, my God, no!
I want that too.
That's the one I want.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, my God. So that is all of the Kirk merch, is what I call that too. That's the one I want. Oh, my God.
So that is all of the Kirk merch is what I call that.
The Kirk merch.
Oh, nice.
Holy shit.
Okay, again, idiots.
The reactions out of Jenna and I are so genuine.
Because we had no idea.
No.
No idea.
I remember Sam saying in our group chat, like,
I can't wait for, like, you know, to do something.
And we were like, fuck, all right.
Yeah.
And people were asking about Misfits merch.
That's true.
Weirdly, yeah.
Weirdly, yeah.
Which was not prompted by any of us.
They're none of our finsters.
No.
No burner accounts.
We honestly did not think that this would actually be something possible.
No.
But what the powers that be, is it just they, them, do say that whatever we raise in terms
of revenue with those shirts and hoodies and all available merch will go entirely to a
charity.
And that charity is us getting to Japan.
Yay!
No one's not saying thank you.
We are the charity. Sam, you scared me for a second. I know. I was going to say. I was like, aren is us getting to Japan yay thank you we are the charity Sam you scared me
for a second
I know I was going to say
I was like
aren't we going to Japan
I'm not fucking paying
but yeah
if you want to go
check it out
we've got a couple
of Misfits merch
in line with
a couple of Mitch's
merch links
and everything
I'm sure you all
know what it is already
yeah so that's going to be
we think midweek
there on our Insta stories.
It's also going to be there, available if you want to see it in the Endurance Idiots
page.
And also, if you just go to coupleofmitches.com.au, Misfits.
Oh my God, I'm going to cry.
This is amazing.
We're not going to put any pressure on you guys.
To be honest with you, I would be surprised if we sold a single thing.
But, um.
Nah, fuck that.
The shirt's going to sell out.
Fuck that.
I'm putting so much pressure on all of you.
The way you all fucking carried on.
If I don't hear that you bought something, I'm throwing hands.
So...
You know, we've always wanted to go to Japan.
And we've always wanted to go to Japan ever since show one.
So if you want to hear us...
Since episode one.
All those years ago.
So if you want to hear us yapping and japping,
please donate to a starving child named Oscar.
Thank you.
Because he is just a widdle girl.
I'm getting a widdle girl.
Oh, well, thank you so much for listening, idiots.
Oh, God, I'm sorry.
I'm still in disbelief.
I guess all I can say is we'll catch you next week.
Yeah, and coupleofmitches.com.au in just a couple of days.
The power is in your hands to get us to Jappin'.
If you want me to yap and jap, then you've got to fucking hurry up.
Yeah.
Anyway, bye.
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye.
Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye.
Welcome to ADD.
Briefing the secret segment on the end where we just talk bullshit.
Oh, I can't breathe.
Sam.
Oh my God.
When you said you had a surprise, that was not what I was expecting.
No, me too.
I want to be like real for a second. Oh. First of all, I never. I want to be, like, real for a second.
First of all, I never thought I would ever be a part of the Is It Just Me universe to begin with.
Second of all, never thought I'd be guest hosting any of it,
like bonus episodes.
And third of all, never thought I'd be part of a merch line.
I'm in disbelief.
Like, that is amazing.
How long have you been cooking that up?
Yeah.
I want to know.
Since the start.
Oh, you cheeky bastard.
This man has not said a thing to us about anything to do with merch.
When we first started this podcast and Mitch approached all three of us to say,
hey, do you want to be able to do this?
I obviously said i'd rather die
and then he convinced me um but we said as well yeah exactly you know it's i was like fuck yeah
put me on i'll do it yeah um so look i mean we did a massive video call where we just talked about
ideas the things that we wanted to do and uh i can't remember what it was that triggered it but
it was the idea i think it was because we had the Mona Jenner out.
Yeah.
And the idea of having our own merch was so dumb
that it had to happen for a bonus show that lasts four episodes.
Yeah.
No, but, like, I agree, though.
But I think that The Misfits, we...
I mean, we've been the spare wheels now for quite a while.
That's true.
I think it was a matter of time.
That's true.
And it's been you guys that have called us the misfits
and actually just given us a self-contained title and everything.
And it's been, like, we're genuinely so touched by all that support.
And we don't actually expect you to go out and buy this stuff.
No, like, all jokes aside, like, obviously the real ones are listening to...
Well, the real ones are listening to ADD Brief.
But, yes, I do stand with Jenna when I say that, yes, I expect you to buy something.
But at the end of the day as well, the fact that there's merch with the Misfits on it,
I just am still in such disbelief about that.
I know.
I never thought I'd ever be a part of it.
Sorry, I'm getting a bit emotional now.
Jesus, it's actually quite touching.
Oh my God, guys.
This is cute.
Love you.
I love you.
I actually was not expecting this.
I would get up and be tired.
No, it's okay.
I just, yeah, just to be a part of that.
Just to bring this up again, self-indulgent cow.
I'm obsessed with that so much.
Yeah, I just never, ever thought that something like that would happen.
So, oh, sorry.
Hang on.
Talk amongst yourself.
Give me two seconds.
Oh, wow.
I'm so excited.
This is not a bit, by the way.
Oscar's actually genuinely quite touched by that.
Yeah, he really is.
I'm sorry.
He really is.
It's really sweet.
I actually really like that.
I'm not good with, I don't like to show too much emotion.
Oh, no, but you should.
You're just a weirdo girl.
Fuck, I'm out of tissues.
Wait, I got some.
I've only got sugar water.
Oh, look, look, look.
Wait, here you go.
Jesus.
Oh, my God.
And they're weirdo for a weirdo girl.
Weirdo ones.
Oh, dear.
Oh, Oscar. Oh, Oscar.
Oscar's upset.
It's been one of those days, really, hasn't it?
I'm just laughing now just because of Jenna.
Like, Jenna, when we did the horn segment last week,
when we listened to gorgeous Alana B. Dutton,
who I still am watching, by the way,
Jenna, when I still am watching, by the way.
Jenna, when I got the spirit, sorry, just a quick recap, because last week, obviously,
we did the Horned Up movie theme.
You got the spirit?
Oh, the movie, the spirit. The movie, yeah.
So we were guessing the movie, and it was a horse movie, Spirit, Staling the Cimarron.
And the whole reason you put that in was to give Jenna a chance, because she is quintessential
horse girl.
And then she got it.
Well, I got it so quickly. You gotessential horse girl. And then she got it.
Well, I got it so quickly.
You got it really quickly.
I got it so quickly. I will admit to this.
I've listened back to just that specific moment because it's so funny to me.
Because while I'm laughing and Jenna's just in the back going.
It was very upsetting for me.
No, and to be fair, there's a lot of that noise, Jenna.
I'm not going to lie to you.
I was very upset.
Oh, my God.
So Sam is now showing us the actual footage from the studio of the Horned Up movie.
I'm going to see if we can find this.
Here we go.
Oh, it's that one. A spirit. Sally to the Simmerall. can find this here we go look at you you're so devastated okay just just we're just gonna look
at that face now i've got tears of joy joy Alright, we have rambled on so much today
And honestly, at this point, we're just
We're losing it
We're just little girls
Okay, I'm going to turn all of you microphones off
Well, look, we hope this podcast
Has made you feel at least 2% better today
That's all.
Just two.
And so we do.
Thank you so much, guys.
Love you.
We'll catch you next week for our finale of Couple of Misfits.
