Remember the last time we started a similar rumor and we had the company Come down on us Like a sack of hammers It was pretty funny though It was scary It was funny And anyone who didn't think It was funny

As a parent Where your kids come to you With the big questions That you don't know How to answer Kind of Kind of We were talking I was driving my girls So if you don't know how to answer kind of kind of we were

talking i was driving my girls so if you don't know i've got two little girls they're three and five and i was driving them to kindy in school the other day and my three-year-old said to me out of the blue she goes dad why don't um dads have the baby sometimes and i said i said oh it's a good question um daddies don't have the the body parts that are needed to make babies. It's a special thing that only mummies can do. And that's where I should have stopped. But I didn't because I wanted some credit. And I went, but daddies help make the baby.

Oh, no. How do they help make the baby? Exactly. There's a second. Special hug. And you can see them processing it in their brain and they go, how do daddy's help how did it were you like oh no no no um yeah i didn't think you'd be having that combo so

early on well you're not really not properly you're not you just it's just a yeah it's just a question every they are honestly i reckon if you there'll be a step for it hang on a second um i don't remember learning about it for the first time. Like I remember in high school doing the like, you know, the actual talks, but I feel like I already knew before then. Really? Yeah. But I don't remember learning the first time and being like, you know,

the special hug. Fuck, it's amazing. On average – no, not your story was amazing. Sorry. What the fuck? On average, a three-year-old will ask 100 questions per day. Per day? Why?

Because they're learning. They're learning about everything. Children between the ages of two and five, in that gap between two and five, will ask up to 40,000 questions. Holy shit. And I believe it. I believe it.

And you have to make up answers for 39 000 questions well the thing is you're building their you're building their intelligence every question that you answer it's quite a lot of pressure and sometimes you're like fuck i don't know google it i'm tired you google it you know so she said how did daddy's help yes what'd you say i've kind of froze i was like uh well when mums and dads love each other and i was like where am i going with this and i said um they they work together and they decide to have the baby and then they have it and that was enough okay she was okay oh that was enough oh i think i quickly went what taylor swift song do you want to hear?

And then the other day we were sitting at the breakfast table and, what were we even talking about? Oh, oh, fuck. It was Gene Hackman. So Gene Hackman died. And I said to Lucy, oh, did you see Gene Hackman died? And she was, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then my three-year-old said to me again um dad what does it feel like to die yeah i don't know i've never done it and i was like that was my answer i said oh that's a

really good question maggie i don't know because i haven't died and she was okay with that and then my five-year-old who we're pretty sure is she's got some kind of connection to something she goes um i actually don't think it feels like anything to die oh my god freaky wow yeah whoa yeah and did you just stare at lucy like oh my god i sort of went i need you to come downstairs because i knew what was coming next and i didn't i hadn't discussed with her what our family position was Because the next question was Where do you go when you die

And I said oh We need to get mummy into this conversation So she came in and she went with Though she's not religious but she is spiritual And she said When you die Your body Stays here but your spirit Lives on when you die your body stays here

but your spirit lives on and your spirit I think she even said your spirit will go to heaven because it's an easy concept to give kids but it's what she believes that your spirit lives on

I don't think she believes in heaven but she believes in reincarnation and I was like yep sweet that's what we're going with and I told my brother-in-law

about this and I said I told him what our answer was and he goes I told him nothing happens. I just said that's the end. That's a bit more petrifying, I think. It is.

But you're also a kid. It is to us, but to a kid, is it? Yeah, maybe not. They're just like, all right, time to play Roblox. Kids can handle it, eh? Yeah, they can handle big concepts. Yeah. It's pretty impressive.

Oh, that's very cute. Yeah. Well done. Anyway, what do you guys think happens when we die? Here we go. I think that we reincarnate but on a different planet. Whoa! A different planet? Mars.

So you think we're universal beings? Yeah. Genuinely, or are you taking the piss? No, this has just come to me now, but I don't not believe it. Okay. Ella, what do you think happens when we die? I mean, I grew up with the concept of heaven as well. I like to think that there's a heaven, but it freaks me out to think eternity.

Yeah. Because if there's a heaven, there has to be a hell. Yeah, and I don't like that concept because then it gets real yucky. You know? I'm like, you're going to hell. I want to stay in purgatory In purgatory Yeah yeah

I want to be a ghost Like I want to be One of those sentient ghosts That just like haunts people Do you? A little bit I want to be a poltergeist I can be a ghost

Be lonely A little bit Unless you have ghost friends And you're actually like Can you have any vices as a ghost? Like you can't vape Go straight through Is that what you're worried about?

You can't drink? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I do. My vice is haunting people. I'm going to possess someone. Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's how you get your thrills. Yeah, I'm going to be one of those people that just like, you know, the little ghost is on your shoulder.

And you can watch people while they do naughty things to themselves. Absolutely, that's my vice. Oh, yikes. If I was a ghost, I would appear to people while they were jacking off. While they were in their most vulnerable moment. And you just go through the wall. It's your name. Stop that.

Stop vanking. I'm a vampire now. Stop vanking. That's petrifying. It sounds fun. If you want me to talk to your children about life and death and sex, slide in the DMs. See you guys tomorrow. I'm having a party.
