But, um, I've been logged out of our show account, so I can't do it. Why do you keep getting logged out of it? I don't know. Yeah, because mine doesn't log me out. I don't know. Weird. Is it because you're only allowed a certain amount of people logged in at one time? It could be.

Does anyone know what our password is? No idea. No idea, but I could ask. Not a clue. You know who knows? Ella. Ella. She's got the passwords.

So someone else share them or go and lock them up yourself. Oh, I can do it. Hold on. We didn't talk much about Ella's. We only talked a little bit about her wedding on the show today.

We had this at a radio station I used to work at. There was this room that, like, had two doors. So it had one door that was from, like, the office

and then the other door on the other side of the room led out to the lobby of the building. And everyone knew that if you got pulled into that room from the office, that was the firing room. Oh, the firing room. Because then they could just lead you straight out into the lobby. Oh, true. Like an immediate firing.

Yeah, so every time there was like meetings in there, everyone would be on edge. Yeah. The two previous radio stations that I worked with The room where all the serious meetings Happened Discipline Firing whatever redundancies One of them was just The spare studio which

Looked into the office The other one was the boss's office Which was just against a wall and then it had three glass walls around it. So it was just a glass box. And it was in the middle of the office.

It was like in the middle of the room. Why would they do it there? Like, just have a little bit of We saw people crying in there. Yeah, that's what I mean. Have a bit of like... Just people crying on mute. Empathy for people and maybe just think about that.

Oh, maybe we'll go to a room. Take them to a cafe. Yeah. Where you can cry in public with strangers rather than your work colleagues. Go and sit in the car. Hey, can you come down to my car with me? And I'll drop you home. I'll drop you home.

Oh nothing I was just asking you the question What do you guys feel about the name suppression rule Because I feel like it's just been At the forefront Of a lot of cases recently It's hard in the era of Social media because so many people Can get around the name suppression

Whereas news outlets can't report it It doesn't stop someone just going on X and writing Bree did it, Bree Thomasel. What did I do? Well, whatever it is. Something bad. Oh, is your name suppression not lapsed yet? Not yet.

Have we done that thing, if I called you to pick me up from the police station, what would you assume I did? Have we done that? No. Don't think so. If I called you to say I need you to come bail me out, what do you assume I've done?
