The ZM Podcast Network. Fleshborn and Hayley's Little Bit of Pod. Treat yourself to McCafe coffee with my Macca's rewards. Welcome to A Little Bit of Pod. Do you guys ever do that thing where you suck a cup to your face? I haven't in ages. I can't because I can't get a good seal because of my beard. Oh my god, I love it. So satisfying.

When I was a kid I'd do it all the time and I'd leave marks. Big rings. My mum would be like, stop it. It would be like really red. You're probably using the good Tupperware too. R.I.P. R.I.P. R.I.P. to Tupperware.

You know why I was doing it? You know how Homer Simpson's beard is primarily focused on that part. You'd get a mark and it would look like you had a little Homer Simpson beard. Does it sound like I'm on an old school phone? A little bit further away from your mouth. Does it sound like I'm on an old school phone? Like that it does. Hi. Hi. I'm on the phone. How are you? I'm good. I'm well further away from your mouth? Does it sound like I'm on an old school phone? Like that it does. Hi, hi.

I'm on the phone. How are you? I'm good, I'm well. Is your mother home? No, she's not. Oh, wait a minute. She's just pulling in. Oh, fantastic. Fucking catch. How are you, boy? I'm going to get the chicken out of the freezer. Tiff, are you there? Anyway, that's just some character work. What was that character called?

Sandy on the phone. That's so good. Sandy on the phone. Oh, great. That's so good. Sandy on the phone. Looking for tiff. Looking for tiff. Looking for having a tiff, a chat tiff.

I would like to take this opportunity to seamlessly segue into a topic for discussion here on Little Bit of Pod. Yes. It's fragrance dupes. Oh, my God. I am constantly getting an ad for one that's a knockoff of Tom Ford. Okcha? Yeah, it'll be that. Is it a red bottle?

Well, the Tom Ford one might be. Yeah. Torrid Day? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm always getting the ads for that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I keep getting an ad for one that's a dupe to a perfume I buy, Santal 33.

I don't buy a lot of perfumes or fragrances, but if there's a knockoff. Well, you found it. You found your perfume. Maybe your truthal 33. I don't buy a lot of perfumes or fragrances, but like if there's enough of- Well, you found it. You found your perfume. Maybe your twin thing. Eros. Eros. Versace Flame.

So many people say, what are you wearing? And I'm like, Versace. It's Versace. It's Versace, darling. Versace. So I was getting this targeted advertising for smells exactly like Tom Ford. We love that. Which I've never- I've had a little spray around when I've been at Judy Freed in the airport.

And it's like so expensive. It's like 500 bucks a bottle. Get me that fist bottle. What was it? Remember this guy? John Paul Gaultier. This was diesel because they had diesel across some brass nuts. But John Paul Gaultier was the.

The latest figure. Yep. The. figure. Yep. The... Yeah. So these ones... So I got all the way through selecting it. I was like, buy one more and you get free postage. I'm like, sweet.

That's, you know, I'm taking price down. Big Timu vibes, eh? Keep going, keep spending. Keep spending, keep spending, keep spending. And then I got to check it, and that's when I noticed the bottles were only 30 mils. Oh, fuck that. What's a normal bottle?

What's a normal? Our price, Tom Ford tobacco vanilla was the one that everybody was like, that'll be you. Yeah, it's nice. $250 US dollars. Yep. Our price, $45 US dollars. Yep. But it's only 30 mils, and I'm a heavy squirter.

30 mils is like that. It's like little, like a vial. I always go, like, if I ever buy a shot of Aperfume, I always get like 100ml. It costs a bit more, but it's cheaper than two lots of 50, but just because otherwise you only just get it and you go get another one. So by the time you buy all

these tiny little bottles, just get the Tom Ford. You might as well just get the Tom Ford. No, it's still cheaper. It's still cheaper. Oh, still cheaper. Yeah. But this is a big industry. Juke fragrances. Yeah, having bought juke fragr It's still cheaper. Oh, still cheaper. Yeah. But this is a big industry. Jupe fragrances. Yeah. Having bought jupe fragrances from like the markets before, they don't last. You put them on, you're like, oh my God, it smells exactly like it.

You leave the house with gong. This one, all the reviews are like it lasts. And someone's like, after I bought this jupe, I went and bought the expensive one and I should have just stuck with the jupes. Wow. Yeah, but they are running those reviews, I reckon. You're getting duped. My girls buy those Soledadineros.

Yeah. And then they didn't have enough pocket money for a Soledadinero, so they tried a dupe. You can't tell the difference. No, you can't. You can't tell the difference. Are they going to keep buying the dupes now? Until they get older.

Or their mother's daughter. What the fuck do you think? They will spend stupid money on shit that smells exactly the same just because they- The brand, darling. Some sort of brand alliance to some brand that doesn't even know you exist. So you ended up not buying any of the dupes? I didn't buy any of the dupes, no.

Well, that's stupid. That's stupid. Yeah. Very stupid of you. I was duped. How are you going to know if they're any good or not? I sort of wanted you to do it so I could see if I could get a dupe. I know, same.

Well, it says here at the bottom, long-lasting formula, paraben and flatulence free, and vegan and cruelty free. I can still put my perfume on five hours ago, still rockin' strong. I haven't had a fragrance for a long time. Oh, really? You just go with

B-O. My stinking armpits. My stank. I got a stank But yeah I don't know How we were going to end this chat I just thought we should talk about that I thought when you said I'm going to stank

That would have been a perfect ending Do you know what I thought that's exactly what it was You thought that was where we ended Okay let's try it again Oh man well Good luck I hope you find your perfume soon

Oh no we did it out of order Oh no I'm just going to stank. No, I didn't say stank. You're so fucking weak at the end. Why are you trying to get it hit hard? This is a bad end to a podcast. Should we just let it fizzle? No, I was going to end it there.

I was going to end it there. This is a bad end to a podcast. Oh, fuck. And then you spoke. We'll just let it fizzle, I reckon. Oh, we should have let it fizzle then, but I couldn't help myself. Now we're just playing last word. Yeah, that's true. Do you know what we should do is we should talk and we'll have let it fizzle then, but I couldn't help myself. Now we're just playing last word. Yeah, that's true.

Do you know what we should do is we should talk and we'll just cut it off. You just hit the button, Fletch, and we'll just do a raw dog off.
