Welcome to the Tony and Ryan podcast. My name is Ryan. I'm with Dr. Arthur Tony Lodge. We are calling Denmark. Denmark. In WA or in Europe? The country Denmark. Because I thought, you know how Princess Mary was like the queen from Denmark or whatever? I thought she was from the small town in WA. I've talked about this before because it's fucking funny. Denmark's got what, 5,000 people? Yeah.

If that. If that. Yeah, it's tiny. A road stop. And I was like, how have I not seen her down at the Candy Cow? You know what I mean? Hello, Bonnie speaking. Bonnie, it's Tony and Ryan. How are you doing?

Oh, my goodness. I'm doing fabulous. How are you? We're well. Oh, my God. You sound very proper on the phone. What are you up to? Have we interrupted something fun?

No, I was sleeping. Oh, you do not sound like you. I don't know if that's a compliment, but you do not sound like you just woke up. Yeah. You sleeping sounds more put together than me. What am I fucking trying to say? Case in point. Yep, there you go.

Bonnie, will you approve this episode? Nothing would make Case in point. Yep, there you go. Bonnie, will you approve this episode? Nothing would make me more happy. Oh, there you go. Perfect. Hi, it's Bonnie, Melburnian, living in Denmark, and I approve this podcast. All right, coming up on today's episode, the difference between a new parent's life and easy breezy cover girl, inner city living, fancy Tony life. Someone who's only 29, might I add.

Yeah, only 29. I didn't realise that there's six years difference between us. Between you and I? Oh, not cool. I'm 35 and you're 29. Yeah. And we're too old to be talking about halves. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So you're turning 36 shortly? Yeah. And then I'm 30. Oh, I didn't realize that was six years. Oh, interesting. What does that mean? I don't know. Well, I'll actually tell it was six years. Oh, interesting. What does that mean? Don't know. Well, I'll actually tell you what it means coming up today

because, again, the contrast in lives between the two of us could be extreme but also could not be much. Yeah. And the way that you've just said all that, you really don't know whether it's going to be good or not. Stay tuned. Yeah, stay tuned. First, normal or nah, people send their normal or nahs

through to the Tony and Ryan Facebook group. They do. So how does normal or nah work? So what happens is, go fuck yourself. But thanks to Mary for sending this one through. Oh, hi, Mary. Mary says, when my husband eats a meal, he eats all of one food before moving on to the next.

So if his plate is like grilled chicken and mashed potatoes and grilled veggies, he'll eat all of the veggies before he touches anything else. Then he'll eat all of the potatoes and then he'll eat all of the chicken. He doesn't like to eat bits and pieces. Is he normal or fucking nah? I think that's normal. You eat like that? Pretty much.

I used to get annoyed because I think it's normal with stir fries. Oh, because you can't enjoy different, like, no, I agree with you. Because sometimes, like, let's be honest, especially when you're younger, like the lettuce and the salad-y bits aren't great. So I'm like, I just want to knock those out. Yep. No, I totally agree. And then I can enjoy the good stuff.

Enjoy the fun part. Yeah. The rice and the chicken because if you've got the rice and the chicken if you've got like yeah so chicken rice and veggies yep

you kind of want to knock all the veggies over straight away fuck them off done see you later I'll tick that box yeah

the nutrients is in me yeah thank you mum don't yell at me for not eating my greens yeah they're eating yep because there's always room for chicken

and rice absolutely yeah you're never going to be like oh I'm so full from all those vegetables but the worst is you finish the chicken and the rice and then there's these veggies left and you're like, oh, God.

Do you know what really stresses me out? Everything in this world? Yeah. But not ending on like a good taste. Yeah. The last bite needs to be delicious. Because imagine when you're like, if I've got like three yum things on my plate, I'll do a quick sampler and go,

which one do I want in my last mouth last? Yeah. That's a thing. Yeah, yeah. I'm glad you agree. We don't agree a lot. I'm glad that we agree on this. There's nothing more unsatisfying than you get like a really good eggs

and toast at a cafe, right? Oh, yeah. And your last bite is just like the corner of a dry piece of toast. No, but that's – You save a dry piece of toast no but that's you have to save a little bit of egg and a really juicy bit so that last bite is like fucking yes yeah or if you've got like eggs and toast at a cafe right and a coffee yeah and you the coffee's great and the eggs and toast are great and you're like fuck do i want to end on the coffee or do i want to end on the eggs and toast well it's so hard sometimes? Well, it's so hard. Sometimes I end on- Do you want to go out for breakfast after this?

Yeah, I'm really hungry. I just realised I'm really hungry, actually. Yeah. Quick, let's speak through. Yeah, come on, let's go. Let's go, let's go. Next, Tash asks, normal or not, defizzing a fizzy drink before drinking? Nah.

For example, says Tash, and I'm just going to keep talking to let Tony calm down and take a breath before she fucking explodes like a not-Ken-you're-drinking-me. I'll open a bottle of Pepsi, give it a little shake so it fizzes up and all the gases fizz up and leave so then the rest of it's a bit more calm. Then I drink it and it's perfect. My husband hates that I do this, but I know that people will back me up. They won't. Well, not us.

I can't. Name one. Fuck, I'm looking around, Tash, and I can't find a fucking single person. Yeah. Do you know what I really like? I am a Diet Coke girl through and through. I feel like I have more than proved myself. Yep.

But I really like that Pepsi started making SodaStream cordial stuff. Yeah. Because then you can add, I fizzed that bad boy like nine times. Nine? You've got to do a mega fizz. You're a bad man. Yep, you've got to do a mega fizz. Four is enough.

Five on a Saturday. Yeah, okay. But nine is out of control. All right, maybe nine was a hyperbole. All right, but let's say four or five fizzes. You've got to go maximum fizz. I want to burp before I've drunk it. That's how fizzy that bad boy needs to be.

I agree. Hard agree. And I hate the taste of flat soda, like fizzy drink or soda or whatever. It tastes like unset jelly, and that makes me want to shit. Well, I hope you're wearing a nappy because i'm about to tell you something you're not gonna like your new dad so that you could nappy me i got plenty yeah do you want me to moving on so rightly or wrongly depending on who you ask in the house um i will use the soda stream

bottles just as like water bottles oh yep like i'll actually drink it out of them yeah and bridge is like no no like you know there for like fizzing and pouring anyway so i filled this was one of my water bottles was half full yeah and so i filled it up to the top then i went back to the computer do some work but i realized that the half that was already in it was a pre-fizzed and then i topped it up with still water no and so this is why tash is a fuckhead is because still water hey of course delicious delicious fizzed water delicious i actually don't like soda water so i don't agree with that but yes delicious if give it a squeeze of lime yeah a little yeah you need something i can't eat it

on its own it tastes like tv yeah. Static. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Different problem for a different day. Yeah. I can't define that right. But when I've got half-half, it's like you want to spit it out. But it's like fucking do it or don't. Yeah, exactly.

Like if you want a defizzed fizzy drink, have a cordial. Have a glass of juice. If you don't like fizz, just drink water from the fucking tap. Fizz off. Yeah. Yeah. Suck my fizzing. What's?

I think we've all made our points. Yeah, fuck. Also, what's disappointing is when I've sipped that water and gone, well, now what do I do? Yeah. Because you don't want to dump it out because you're like, I've already sat down. I tell you what can make a very simple thing very fancy,

just a side note. Kewpie mayonnaise. Fucking yes. But also just soda water from the, like, you just got a soda stream and just like a little bit of lime. Oh, I wouldn't put mayonnaise in that. Sorry, I'm thinking of a different thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Let's push on. Let's push on. Cam O'Neill asks, is it normal that when I have to retie one of my shoelaces, I feel like I have to retie the other one as well so the tightness matches on both sides? Otherwise they're out of balance. Yeah.

Normal. With one shoe's tighter than the other, how could you even walk? Well, because then you've got to bend over twice as many times. You're just out of whack. What's happening there? You're out of whack. A bit of theatre happening.

I just hate the thought that, like, then the tightnesses are out, but then, like, what i i find bending over to tie up my shoelaces incredibly embarrassing yeah of all the things in the world i find that so humiliating so you walk around with a lace just flying around willy-nilly always avoid yes yeah i will now that i've got a bit of a more of a bootay than i did when i was younger and i'm always scared of plumber's crack, I will back up against the wall to tie a shoe. Because if I tied a shoe ass-facing the world,

who knows what they're going to say. Who knows. Yeah, no, and I agree with that. But yeah, I just find it the most humiliating thing to do. If I'm with someone, I'll be like, can you tie up my shoelace? That's a power play. Yeah, because I just cannot do it. But is it embarrassing for them?

I don't know. Ask producer Cam. He does it for me a lot. That's not why Cam's employed here. Why? You can dress yourself. Oh, no, but I'm already dressed. He's a podcast producer.

Yeah, and shoelace tier. No, that's degrading. You should lift. No, he needs to lift. If he was a good producer, my shoelaces would never be untied. He would see it before it was... He needs to be more proactive. This is a performance

review. I know and hope you're joking. But I just feel like this is going to be one of those videos in 10 years that's played in court. Oh my god. No, obviously not. And there was a complaint Cam's done a towel with Channel 7, 60 Minutes or whatever. Tracy Grimshaw comes out of retirement to do it.

And then, you know how they always like, Cam will be like, oh, they made me do the worst of things and it cuts back to right now and you're going, if my shoelaces aren't done up right, he hasn't done a show properly. A real hit piece from Grimshaw. Yeah, it would be. M Carter asks,

Hi, M. Is it normal to blow out the candles on a birthday cake before singing? I'm a firm believer in singing happy birthday than blowing the candles out as a climax to the event. M, please never use the word firm and climax in the same sentence again, please. Especially when you're talking about birthdays. Yeah, I mean, it's birthday night. Anything could happen.

But my best friend, on the other hand, said that she thinks you blight the candles first, which is a signal to start singing. And it also saves candle wax from dripping onto the cake. No. Because the signal to begin singing is your mum walking out of the kitchen and going, Happy birthday.

And then everyone joins in. That's the signal. You start the happy birthday before your mum's even come out of the kitchen with the tea towel underneath it. Have you, because you've said you're on the record as being a hip-hipper. I am a hip-hipper. Another power play of mine. Do you also like starting the happy birthday song?

If no one else is getting into it, I do. I have been self-professed like party mum as well. Like I'm happy to organise the cake or I'm happy to go, oh, let's do the cake before everyone gets too fucked. I'll go in and put the candles on and stuff. And in that case, I'm happy to do the ha, you know, because as you're walking, you've got to protect the candles. Ha. And you do that. I've got an idea. I'm happy to do the ha, you know, because as you're walking, you've got to protect the candles. Ha, and you do that.

I've got an idea. I'm happy to do that. The cafe downstairs. Yep. We should just walk in and Tony just goes and like kind of gets, like he's like, ha. I won't do that. And then everyone will sing along, but before the song's finished,

we will all leave. And then they will finish the song. And then they'll be like, who are we singing to? No. No way. I would never, ever were like, who are we singing to? No. No way. I would never, ever do that. Who are we singing to? We're just a bunch of strangers singing to you.

No. No way. Hey, it's Bonnie Melbertian living in Denmark and you're listening to Tony and Ryan. A massive shout out to a few of our champion tapions from the Patreon. Ali Holland-Wright, which is not bloody Holland wrong. Jessica Phillips, Mary Ashton, Stacey Walsh, and Hans BD.

Hans BD. Thank you so much for being part of our Patreon. Hang on, is it Hans BD? I think it's like Hans, like Hannah. Oh, it's Hans BD maybe or something. So it's literally like H-A-N-S B-E-E-D-E-E. That's one word. Okay, so it's not like Big Dick Hans. Hans BD. Oh! Like it's not like big dick hands. Hands B-D.

Oh. Like B-D-E, like big dick energy. Hands let us know. But I think it's like hands. Like hand. Like hand. I don't know. There's no punctuation.

It's literally just like hands B-D. I'm sorry I asked. Yeah. I'm sorry you are as well. Also, I think it's like last chance if you want to pre-order our merch. Yep. Absolutely. So all of the links are in our Instagram buyers on our Facebook group and everything.

And Patreons get a juicy little discount as well. Someone join Patreon just to get the discount and save money. Which I love the energy for. Yep. I love the energy for. Sorry about that. But people are loving the merch. I'm really excited for people to start getting it.

They ship it out soon. All right. It's time to get real about our lives. Reasons people are scared to become parents. Is it they fear losing their independence, their time, their life. You know, suddenly my life is about taking care of this other life and not just taking care of my own life. And so I was thinking, would I, Ryan, new dad,

who's moved out to the suburbs, which is like the most classic change in life moment, with a newborn, be able to have as much fun as the inner city living dependent free Tony Lodge? Would I resent Tony Lodge? I mean, I do have a daughter, be able to have as much fun as the inner city living, dependent-free Tony Lodge? Would I resent Tony Lodge? I mean, I do have a daughter, Pippa, who I love. Would I resent Tony Lodge for having her fun city lifestyle while I'm slaving away out in the suburbs with a newborn?

Yep. I'll answer that for you now. So it's 2 a.mam the other night, right? Yep. And it was like Sunday morning, Saturday night kind of thing. And I'm up with Mabel, you know, she's having a feed and a little stretch of the legs. Hanging out. We're just hanging out.

Do you put the telly on for that or is that like too stimulating? We did the other night and with the cricket starting in england this week which starts at about midnight let's just say dad isn't hating getting up for the night time but do you do you pop the tv on or is it like you try and keep everything like as quiet as possible or is everyone just different or yeah it just depends yeah if she's like really just needs a quick little feed and back to bed maybe keep it dark and yeah quiet but yeah we watched a bit of youtube the other night that's fun so i came back into the room and i was like, hey, Bridget, I am. Because after you got the treadmills, I went on a bit of a YouTube deep dive

about like exercise equipment in the home. Yeah. So Bridget's like, how is she in it for you? And I was like, yes, I've just watched three reviews about Peloton bikes. And she's like. A Peloton bike? Yeah. Oh, must be nice.

Well, I've just watched. Sorry, you're the one who bought two treadmills. I just watched a video about Peloton. I can't even afford to watch a video about Peloton. Let's not be throwing around must be nice. It's willy-nilly. So I open up my phone at 2. And the thing is about Saturday night is you kind of,

that's the night that really you know people are out and about. Oh, yeah. Yeah, people are out and about. And here I am, you know, cleaning vomit off my T-shirt. But not your own? Like it's your baby's? Actually, if I was out at 2am, I probably still would be cleaning up vomit. That's the point.

For different reasons. But I see Tony had posted some stories. And this is where I went, inner city, dependent free Tony. She's just living her truth on the weekend i'm out having fun and i'm like do i even want to look at the stories on instagram or do i just want to like you know let it be so i click on the story i was like no you know when you're like a sucker for like yeah or like you taste the forbidden fruit you hate what thanks for following me, by the way.

Appreciate that. I have to follow you back. Yeah. It's like, do you want to follow this person back? Fuck. And I go, fuck, is Tony at a bar or a club or she at a restaurant? And then I see Tony sitting on the couch and she's saying, I'm thinking of getting a new fridge.

Let's have a discussion about whether it's best to get a freezer on top or a fridge part on the top because I've heard the pros and cons of each. Let's just go through it bit by bit. And I thought, oh, I'm not missing out on anything. Surely that's got a lot of dad energy. Oh, it's a Saturday. Better head down to the white goods store. See if I can get a discount.

The thing about the food. And the follow-up stories. Oh, lots of people have replied. Well, I was shocked. Turns out in some countries, your landlord does the fridge. I actually did find that interesting. Thank you. Not in Australia.

We provide our own fridges here in Australia. It turns out with the crisper, if you've got the fridge at the top, then the crisper's closer to where the freezer is. Okay, let me just shut up. Maybe I will watch another Peloton review. My fridge shit up. Okay. Maybe I will watch another Peloton review. My fridge shit itself. Yep. And it is the bane of my life.

It actually is so fucking annoying. I didn't even realize. It was kind of getting like, see, I'm boring myself, but it was kind of getting. No, please go on. It was getting like warmer and warmer over like a week. Yeah. And I was like, oh. And then because it's getting colder in Melbourne, I was like, oh, maybe it's something to do with the actual

like temperature control in the thing. And it just, it's not working. Are you implying that at one stage you thought the temperature is getting colder so maybe the fridge has just decided to let Melbourne's weather do the heavy lifting? Well, yeah, kind of. I don't need to work as hard because just open the door, sweetheart. It's three degrees outside.

How cold do you want this milk? Well, I actually just didn't really know. And I was trying to – you tell me, right? Yeah. If you looked at the temperature control on a fridge – Can I stop you? Yeah. So, Cam, this is the inner city life that I was envious of.

And this is the kind of shit that I miss. Please continue. If you looked at the dial on a fridge and it said 1 to 7 and you just like rotate the dial, do you reckon that 1 is the coldest or 7 is the coldest? I would have assumed that 7 is the coldest because it's like turning up the power. Because it's like, oh, turn it up to 7. It's the coldest it can go.

It's the other way it can go. Yeah. It's the other way around, I'm guessing. Well, neither of them worked because the fridge is packed. So I actually – You'll never guess the answer. Well, actually, you won't because I don't know it either. Yeah, I don't have a conclusion because the fridge is packed. Because that's what I was like, it's on three.

It's not working. Let's turn it to one because I was like, surely one. I'm like, maybe it's the – Is it seven degrees to one? i was like surely one i'm like maybe it's the is it seven degrees to one is it literally seven degrees one degree i don't know yeah why am i asking you these yeah i don't know anyway so we changed it to one that didn't do anything we changed it all the way to seven that also didn't work but the freezer was still working it's just like a whole fucking thing anyway so then we ended up like i i really wanted a bottom mount freezer yeah because it kind of has to be.

It makes no sense. Yeah. You lived in the past if your freezer's on the top. That's what I reckon. And Tobbs, my partner, he goes, that seems a bit too new. What? Isn't that what you had? No, our freezer was on the top.

He thought that a freezer on the bottom. He's not ready to move to 1997? He thought that a freezer on the bottom was a bit too whiz-bang. Yeah, that's what I mean. He's not ready for that bottom. He's not ready to move to 1997. He thought that a freezer on the bottom was a bit too whiz-bang. Yeah, that's what I mean. He's not ready for that yet. He's not ready. He works in IT. Yeah, I know.

Technology. Yes. Computers. And so he wasn't ready. So kind of the story was a bit, my Instagram story was a bit like, what are other people doing? And, I mean, people are very into the bottom-out freezer. I just honestly.

Yeah. So then on Sunday afternoon, I was watching the football, feeding Mabel on the couch. Yeah. And some more Tony stories popped up and I went, oh, maybe she didn't have a big Saturday night because of freezer gate. But Sunday afternoon in Melbourne is where like restaurants, Sunday sessions, yeah, we'll have another wine, you know,

a really nice kind of, you know, especially in winter, like the fire's on, some wine, some delicious food. And I thought, oh. That sounds really nice. This is where Toni will really come to her own, living her inner city, fun lifestyle, dependent free, just living her best life. Yeah.

So one really hard thing in my life, and I was like, oh, what? Choosing between which red to get, which restaurant, you know, what's going to be. One really hard thing in my life is trying to find the right pillow. This is making me depressed. Because, you know how you're supposed to change your pillow Every like six months or something That's what big pillow tell you to say to increase sales

Is that a conspiracy Trying to soften the blow Good Thanks We got baby formula That you don't need that much of And it's like Once you've opened the can,

it only lasts two weeks. I'm like, well, that's not true. You're just trying to sell me a new can in two weeks. Well, probably not. No. No. And there's this other thing where it's like, you need to make 150 mils of it.

But we only need 50 mils. It's like, yeah, but you have to make 150 because of the ratio. I'm like, well, if I just put a third of the water and a third of the powder, I'm sure it'll be fine. No, I mean, that makes sense. Yeah, but so this is where they're like, yes, you've got to use all. But the ratio. I'm like, well, if I just put a third of the water and a third of the powder, I'm sure it'll be fine. No, I mean, that makes sense. Yeah, but so this is where they're like, yes, you've got to use all. But the expiry date, though, that's because you wouldn't, it's not big milk telling you that milk doesn't expire.

I don't know if you've ever had chunky milk, but that's not a lie. That isn't a lie. You know, I think that I would be taking heed of the expiry dates, especially for your beautiful tiny baby. Sometimes people, companies, ham some shit up to get a repeat customer. I reckon, and I don't disagree. It's hard.

Bridget is, the whole time I've known Bridget, she's been after the pillow that is right for her and she's never found it. Once she does find it, if you think she's getting another one six months later, no fucking way. Find a good one and then stick with it. But so are you supposed to buy six of the same pillow

and then just swap that out every six months? Because half the time when you buy a good pillow, you forget about it. So then like two years later you go, fuck, I should probably get a new pillow. You can't find the fucking thing again. No, it's a mirage. Like you actually, it's so hard. But the thing about, I think i'm on the hunt for the perfect pillow because so i was using this pillow for about a year and like it was fine it was only

fine though and now yeah you spend eight hours a day a third of your life with your face on something yeah fine is not enough i know better than You deserve better than that. And that's why I was like, fuck. Especially that face. Thank you. I was like, this is just not really working. And then so I went to an old pillow that I had in there because I was like, I just need to fucking change it. I was getting all this pain in my neck.

And anyway, so I just changed it to an old one that we had. And it was so soft that I was like, oh, that's good because it kind of molds to your body. But then I was like chasing after the pillow all night. Yeah, you're pushing it up. You're pushing the feathers around. Like I felt like I was just like, it was like a kilometre away. Every time I tried to like snuggle back in, it would like slip away from me.

Yeah. Like a little bloody, like, you know those toys that you have when you're a kid and they're like the plastic. The squishy thing. Yeah, the squishy thing that you, like, yeah, yeah. And it like, you know, and you kind of like. Franco, can you please make a video of the extremely risque hand gestures that Tony was just making?

Risk game, I'm like, risque. But you know those things? Yeah. That they like slip through your hands like this? Anyway, it was like that. I was like trying to find it. And then I had another old pillow and I was like, fuck, like this is going to be better than that.

And that's the one that I've got at the moment. And I think it's a better pillow, but it's a bit too high profile. So I think I need a mid-profile firmer pillow. This is the kind of exciting life that I was telling you guys about. But like with COVID, are you even allowed to go and, like, lay on a pillow in a shop? Like, how do you test it? You're literally going in blind. And they're like, oh, just have a lay down.

You go, I don't fucking lay on that. How many people have laid on that? Have people banged on that? Oh, they've got cummies on there? Sorry. Oh, you saying have they banged on there is okay, but me saying cummies? Yeah.

Oh, yeah, fair. Yeah. banged on there is okay but me saying cummies yeah oh yeah fair um so is torbs open to the new technology of pillows yeah he's open to a new pillow okay but the new freezer is a bit that was too much yeah that was too much and you know what that's on me apparently i i'm not gonna ask but i can just tell tell that that's the conclusion we've come to, that that conversation would have been quite an interesting one to have in the household. The fridge one? Yeah.

Oh, well, I was like, oh. When he goes, oh, I'm not ready. And you go, what? And I just couldn't believe it. But then I was like, well, I am not ready for all these things. But, Ryan, you also can't talk because you don't do Apple Pay. Exactly. There's a difference.

No, there's not. There's a difference. There's not. There's a difference. Anyway, yeah, the difference is that you like it when I pay for coffee and because I always have my phone with me, you never have your wallet. You go, oh, Tony, you have to pay. Apple Pay looks convenient.

Yeah. So did you – you went and bought a new fridge though? So we bought the – Yeah. We bought the fucking fridge. Did you haggle? No. Oh, no, I bought it online.

Oh. So I bought it online because I found this place that were like, oh, we'll drop off the new fridge and take all the rubbish and they recycle it and they take the old fridge for parts or whatever. So when we got a new fridge, there was like some companies that were like, oh, for an extra $200, we'll take the other. And I was like, I'm not paying you to take. And then another one.

No, they do it for free. Yes. And for for me that was almost a deciding factor like these guys it was for us rock up with a fridge they're going to take the old one I don't actually give a fuck

what you do with it just get it the fuck out of my house I mean the hard thing obviously is that it has to be delivered for them to take the old one so tell me

so here's what I assume the process is yep they rock up with a new fridge yep they like shuffle the old one out of the spot they shuffle the new one in, they hook it up

they plumb it in, they do what they need to do then on the little trolley they have your existing one and they wheel that one back out and put it in the truck so what happened when you bought a fridge? so I bought the fridge online they said that's going to come Monday morning I was like we actually need it ASAP because our other fridge does not work like we don't have any fridge now

they're like oh okay great yep it'll come Monday morning Monday Like we don't have any fridge now. They're like, oh, okay, great. Yep, it'll come Monday morning. Monday afternoon, we hadn't heard anything. We called them. They're like, oh, yeah, your delivery got left behind. What do they mean they got left behind? Well, they didn't have it. They didn't have it on the truck.

I don't know what happened. They were like, oh, I'm looking at it now in the warehouse. And I was like, well, I would like to be looking at it right now in my fucking living room because I've got no fucking cold water. Listen to this. That's ice in there because I've got no cold fucking water. Anyway, it's a whole thing. So the fridge didn't come.

Do you have taps in your house? It's supposed to be coming today. Okay. Is the old one still there? Yes, the old one's still there because no one's taken it. Just sitting there like a loser. Yes, just like not doing anything. Just like really not contributing to the household at the moment.

Anyway, but yeah, so I think that when the new fridge comes, which Torbs is having to tackle that alone because I'm at work. Is he going to be able to handle that? Yeah, he will. Was he not tracking the fridge coming on the app? Well, they didn't send us any tracking information. Anyway, it was a whole thing. Hopefully the fridge comes today and we'll be living la vida loca, nice and cold.

Yep. Anyway, stay tuned for more pillow conversation because I think there's more pillow chat in there. Pillow talk, we could call it. Ooh, that sounds significantly sexier than it is. Yep. But I like it. I've got a love to see it to finish off today. My love to see it is Tony Lodge in Rolling Stone

Magazine. How good. I'll allow the clapping on the podcast for that. Thank you very much. Teske Brothers on the front cover. Controversial. Yeah, not Tony on the front cover. That's okay. That's alright. But not just like a mention. A double page spread.

Yeah, I'm spreading. Are you a centerfold girl? I'm not a centerfold. mention, a double page spread. Yeah, I'm spreading. Yeah, you are spreading. Are you a centerfold girl? I'm not a centerfold. No, a centerfold is like. A double page spread. In the middle of the magazine. I don't know if it's in the middle. It's middle enough.

Yeah, close enough to the middle. It's in the middle 90 pages. Tony Lodge is a centerfold. I like it. Yeah. Thank you, guys. That's my love to see it. You can pick it up.

I can't for fucking the life of me find the article online. Oh, I don't know if... Oh, I don't know when they release it. And I don't have the Apple News app. Oh, I send you the PDF. Yeah. But I don't know if it's on the website or not yeah it will eventually they must sort of sprinkle them out over the the issue yeah because they only release like a quarterly yeah uh magazine like actual physical magazine now in australia you

can order it online or you can go to your local coles supermarket yeah news agent whatever i got it from coles are they news agents hmm? Hmm? Yeah, magazines sell news agents. Your thing at Post Office? Yep. That's why I love to see it. Oh, thank you. And the photos look great as well. Thank you.

My love to see it is from Jeffrey on our Patreon. And he said, I wanted to share with you my start the blog. Oh, hang on. The what? Start the fucking blog. Jeffrey's written start the blog. Well, Jeffrey, that's okayff that's okay that's okay branding issue that's all right um i'm from buffalo ny in the us and back in december at christmas time we had a devastating snowstorm that left everyone stranded for about a week um so like couldn't see any family couldn't see like you know was

literally stuck inside for ages by himself. So I just woke up every day, made a holiday cocktail, sat on the couch with a bag of potato chips, ate like shit until it was time to go to bed again. A holiday cocktail? Well, I'm guessing like... I thought he was trying to paint this as a sad story, but it's sounding quite...

Yeah, it sounds quite good. Quite tropical. I'm like, that's actually my ideal holiday. I was like, wait, is this a complaint? Because that sounds fucking awesome. Jeffrey said, I knew that this was unhealthy and I really needed something to get me motivated. So I impulsively signed up to run a marathon. You're an idiot, Jeffrey.

At the end of May. I went to training as soon as I could with the weather, was feeling really good physically and then four months into a five month training plan, injury in the left shin, sidelined. Oh, plantar fasciitis. Yes, plantar fasciitis. Yes, plantar fasciitis. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, had a stress injury, so couldn't keep going.

But then cut to the end of May, he finished the marathon. Woo! Got back into the training and said it wasn't easy. And I often thought about just, like, stepping off the course. Because, you know, like, I reckon, like, running, and I've heard this from people that run, I obviously don't know. Oh, please tell me more. But it's, like, a mental thing. Cause you know, like I reckon like running and I've heard this from people that run, I obviously don't know. Um,

but it's like a mental thing. Oh, absolutely. It's like, you have to keep yourself like busy in the brain to actually keep going. Otherwise you're like, fuck, I could just sit down and not do this.

Um, but yeah, like I had a, I had a nice little cry when you've crushed the finish line. Uh, but he said at the end, I'm sure you get a lot of messages, but I just couldn't imagine not sharing this with the two people,

plus Cam, who always pull me out of my depression when thinking I couldn't do it. Well, Geoffrey, as someone who's tried to do a marathon a few times and hasn't completed it, respect because that's a huge effort. That's a huge effort. Especially with like a late in the piece injury. I would probably go, I've thrown an injury. I've thrown a leg. I've thrown a shin.

If there's one thing I'm better at than not doing things, it's coming up with the excuse to not do the thing. And I go, oh, well, I wanted to do that, but then this happened. My shoelaces are not evenly tied. Yeah. So I'm going to sit this one out. Oh, my AirPods are flat, I think, so I won't be able to do that one. I'll pull out, I think.

Oh, yeah, but then will you do the marathon? But, Geoffrey, thank you so much for sharing that with us. We fucking love to see it. Yeah, thanks, man. That's fucking lovely to see that. Really cool. Tomorrow on the show, it's a video show. It's a video show.

But it's also one of the more graphic shows you're going to hear and see. Oh. Because a tarpa who lives in Brighton in the UK. Yep, not Brighton here. No, no. I've done all of Brighton. Yeah, Brighton's like a really rich suburb in Melbourne. Probably the second richest like everyone knows. What would be first, Toorak? Toorak, yeah.

The tarpa can't show his face in this Brighton pizza shop ever again because of something he did himself. He's only got himself to blame. Now I want eggs and toast and pizza. It's called an Aussie pizza. Ooh. Does anyone do an egg Benedict pizza? I would come.

If I had an eggs Benedict on a pizza, like hollandaise sauce on a pizza, fucking touch me on the vagina. Let's Google that. All right. Okay, let's go. Let's wrap it up. All right, we'll chat to you tomorrow.

Love you, bye.
