It acts like a form of play.

It's Fletch Vaughan and Hayley's Little Bit of Pod
Welcome to A Little Bit of Pod
I think I've cost my parents quite a bit of money
Because, um, this is a bit of a break
I've got a Dyson, right
I've got a Dyson I've got a dyson right i've got dyson
she's doing all right she's doing all right for herself dyson stick back and i'll tell you what
some of us have just got a kmart juke fuck off you've got the exact same one as me
i said some of us my vacuums my is also a dyson my but it's an old dyson it's been held together
with tape and i've had to replace the trigger with a Temu pack.
We got those Temu replacement triggers, didn't we?
I'm not paying for Dyson-level stuff.
I just got some cheap Temu parts.
Yeah, totally, totally.
So my parents were staying for five nights,
and what is it with them?
I came home yesterday, and I had made one comment like,
oh, the house is a bit bloody dusty.
I'm going to have to sort that out. Kind of like, excuse the dust. Yeah, excuse the dust. I got home yesterday and I had made one comment like oh the house is a bit bloody dusty I'm gonna have to
sort it out excuse the dust yeah excuse the dust I got home yesterday the house was dusted cleaned
windows cleaned uh mopped vacuumed and then my dad he's like I gotta get me one of these vacuums
oh every day five days they stayed every single day he was like,
can I have a little vacuum?
And he'd pull it off the stick thing,
which is currently just in my bedroom,
hoon around, he's like,
I bloody love this.
Oh, really?
He loves a little vacuum.
He bloody loves it,
because they're corded.
They're old school.
They're old school.
Once you ditch a cord,
it's life changing.
Yeah.
I know, but they'll be spending their Flybuys points on.
Flybuys, a now expired
points collection system.
You would literally have had to spend a million dollars
through the providers to get anything decent.
To get anything.
Do you think they're going to get one?
Yeah, I think so, because my dad, every day,
and my house doesn't need to be vacuumed every day.
And didn't he wash your car as well?
Washed my car in and out.
Washed all the towels, not only the ones they use, but every towel in the house.
It was washed, dried, folded.
Sheets washed.
My bed changed.
Their bed changed.
Shower scrubbed.
Yeah, that's good stuff.
They can't sit still.
Mirrors cleaned.
Yeah, I don't, because I remember we'd go away for family holidays.
We'd go down and stay with Gran or, you know, the relatives.
My dad was the same.
If he was away from home, could not sit still. He'd go and fix something or, you know, relatives my dad was the same if he was away from home could not sit still
he'd go and
fix something
or you know
be in the gardens
or clean
like they just
why can't they just
have a holiday
got home the lawns were mowed
I hadn't showed my dad
where the bloody mower was
where the garage was
he just
he's a daddy
he just knows these things
by his primal urge
he can just echo
sense a mower
I bet you the gas
on the barbecue
that's been replaced
been topped up I bet you like it on the barbecue, that's been replaced.
Been topped up.
I bet you.
Like, it's just, I was like, you're here to relax.
Yeah.
They were literally here to see our concert,
and the rest of the times they were just hitting the beach.
Yeah.
Do you, just thinking about that stick vacuum thing,
do you have something that your parents always wanted that you purchased before them?
Mine would be the ride-on lawnmower.
Dad always talked about a ride-on lawnmower.
He's still talking about a ride-on lawnmower.
But I got one
before he did
and I felt
there was a little bit
of guilt
a big fuck you
yeah I didn't want
it to be a fuck you
but I needed one
my lawns are bigger
than his
is that a bit of a fuck you
yeah it's a fuck you
I would never have
intended it to be a fuck you
mine was a spa pool
because I got a spa pool
recently
and this was the first trip
God listen to you two
must be nice
Dyson and a spa pool some of us don't the first trip up where it's been a... God, listen to you two. Must be nice. Dicing in a spa pool.
Some of us don't even have a lawn.
Yeah.
You've got a fucking central city apartment.
You've bitched and moaned about the amount of time I spend doing my lawns.
I can't imagine you'd ever want to.
I love saying some of us don't even have a lawn with your apartment.
Some of us don't even have a tree.
Oh.
Some of us have got massive mortgages.
Some of us are still paying off our trees real slowly.
Some of us are just having to deal with those trees,
dropping all their fucking leaves everywhere.
Oh, my God, the majnolias.
Oh, the heavy, crunchy leaves.
Oh, for God's sake.
After they flower, they drop their big, fat buds.
No idea how hard it is with all this beautiful land.
Anyway, if you're a parent
Sit the f*** down
No, they can't
I am grateful that the house is clean
My Nana kind of summed it up once
She said to me, no matter how old your kids are
Your kids are always your kids
And that's why she always dropped my dad off baking
Every Friday when she'd go to town
She'd do a baking day the day before
Stop at my dad's and my uncle's
Because they were both on the way to town
And do them a drop off both
Because your kids both because your kids
are always your kids
no matter how old
so that's why
they can't just
see Fletch this is another
thing we don't have
to carry on
into our lives
oh my god I know
I don't need to
waste time baking
for my you know kids
I know
it's like my mum
who every time
I'm in the car
texts me when you're there
or if I'm doing
a gig late at night
or can you text me
when you get home
I'm fucking 35
you're still worried
about me
it's caring
I mean to be honest
I would be worried
if I was still your mum
you guys do worry as well
to be fair
I live a pretty rogue life
