0:32 Speaker 02 This is a Global Player original podcast.
0:40 Speaker 03 Welcome to Myth Harpers Ghosted Me with myself, Joanne McNally. And as people, general people know, some people won't, Vogue Williams is in La Jungle, being a celebrity and chewing Paratic. So we had to have,
1:01 Speaker 03 as a last resort, we've had one of my best friends and companions and my other work wife, Garell Farley, or as my captions call him when they pick up my transcription, Garbage Barry.
1:15 Speaker 01 Garbage Barry. Yeah. And when I got the call this afternoon, I was like,
1:20 Speaker 03 20 minutes ago.
1:21 Speaker 01 This is clearly Joanne was supposed to ask somebody else.
1:24 Speaker 03 Yeah.
1:26 Speaker 03 I was like, the list of people who've rejected me is so long. I'm now, there's a file of facts of rejections and Garbage Barry, you are the last resort. Jokes, obviously. Garbage Barry knows how much I love him. And also we have Joe Ashewell, who's always here, really, just kind of creeping around in the background.
1:45 Speaker 04 Hello. I feel I should say at this point that as we're recording this, We've seen none of Vogue. This is, this is last Thursday when Vogue was about to be on the telly for the first time and we haven't seen her yet. So we don't know about the Parrot Dicks or anything else.
2:00 Speaker 03 No, I know. And Joe, you're right. You do time travel. Well, I can't keep track, but I know she is, we, we record ahead of time for various reasons. And I know she is, she is officially like in the jungle now, isn't she?
2:14 Speaker 04 Yeah. On the day that we're here now, we will see her on TV for the first time.
2:18 Speaker 03 Yes. Yeah. Sucking off a kangaroo because she said when she was going in, that even when she landed in Australia, she had to say she was there for a role in Home and Away. And I was like, this is.
2:32 Speaker 01 Come on.
2:32 Speaker 03 I know. Like, like I said before, this isn't Jason Bourne shit. It's a fucking TV show.
2:41 Speaker 01 Exactly.
2:43 Speaker 03 Well, like this isn't Flight of the Navigator. Like, anyway.
2:47 Speaker 01 Did they, did they ask her, like, did she have to have a role? Did they give her like a fake role? Did they tell her anything about Home and Away?
2:53 Speaker 03 A role.
2:54 Speaker 01 A role. Okay. So she was like a troublemaker from Yabby Creek.
2:58 Speaker 03 Yeah. She's a hot chick with abs. They were just like, oh yeah, any role. Do you know what I mean? A role. They're like, she's just in. And also, Gro, before we chat to you, because I do want to chat to you, because I just don't see enough of you. 24 hours a day, 70 minutes a week. Isn't enough for me. I'd like to get to know you more. I would like the listeners to know Joe Adewel is sucking on a can of beer. Like the only way a father of 202 can. You look deranged, Joe. What is going on?
3:26 Speaker 04 Also for context, because it is last Thursday, I always treat Thursday evenings like they're Fridays because, actually I don't have a reason for that, but I think it adds, I think it adds.
3:39 Speaker 01 This is very familiar.
3:40 Speaker 04 Excitement to the week. If you can treat Thursday like a Friday, because it means Wednesday is a Thursday then.
3:46 Speaker 03 Yes.
3:47 Speaker 04 And in fairness, it is after five o'clock.
3:49 Speaker 03 You've gifted yourself a three day weekend like the Scandies.
3:53 Speaker 04 I have, yeah.
3:55 Speaker 03 Very wise. Gro, tell us, because obviously the listeners won't be familiar with you on this podcast. Any news? What are your star signs?
4:03 Speaker 01 What? My star sign's Libra. I'm incredibly balanced. Yeah.
4:08 Speaker 03 No, oh God, I will say, sorry to cut across you, garbage Barry.
4:14 Speaker 03 I have never met a more balanced person in my life. He doesn't have a vice. Garode can just sit in his own feelings. Jo, you've never seen anything like it. Jo, you're not even looking at us.
4:26 Speaker 04 Because I've gone to find what Libra's got in store for today. I'm having a look at what we've got today.
4:33 Speaker 03 Oh, go on.
4:34 Speaker 01 Today. Go on, hit us up.
4:36 Speaker 03 Go on.
4:37 Speaker 04 Okay, okay, okay.
4:39 Speaker 03 Because I actually had a therapy session today and it was one of those therapy sessions that I booked when I was having a spiral and an existential crisis. But by the time the session came around, I was actually grand. So when I went in, I was kind of panicked about what I was going to talk to her about. And we ended up talking about astrology and she has been kind of half convinced to start buying into us.
4:58 Speaker 01 Oh, no. When a therapist starts this stuff now, I'm like, ah, no, no, no, no, no. I'd like, I'd like science, please. I'd like.
5:06 Speaker 03 Yeah.
5:07 Speaker 01 Yeah, the moderation of feelings, not like, you know, there's three stars in your anus.
5:11 Speaker 03 Or.
5:12 Speaker 01 No.
5:13 Speaker 03 Or no feelings, as we like to discuss.
5:16 Speaker 01 Exactly. Go into the doctor and say, I've had a feeling and I don't want to have any more until the middle of next year.
5:21 Speaker 03 Yeah, yeah, I'm all field ahead of us.
5:23 Speaker 01 Facilitate that, please.
5:24 Speaker 03 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Are you?
5:26 Speaker 04 I think this horoscope sort of, it might suit actually. It sort of makes sense, I think. A new unity and purpose could create a more positive atmosphere regarding your career.
5:39 Speaker 03 Sorry, read that to me again.
5:40 Speaker 04 A new unity and purpose could create a more positive atmosphere regarding your career.
5:47 Speaker 03 Oh my God, Garode, am I your purpose?
5:49 Speaker 04 You're picking up a different shift tonight.
5:51 Speaker 01 Maybe it's like your, your dark force has now just moved to Africa.
5:57 Speaker 01 Or Australia.
5:58 Speaker 03 Australia.
6:01 Speaker 04 Recognition, recognition and increased income are just over the horizon. That's good.
6:07 Speaker 03 No.
6:09 Speaker 04 Don't be surprised if changes lie in store. You could end up in entirely different profession. Oh, right. So it isn't necessarily comedy.
6:17 Speaker 03 Garret, I did tell you to sell those Converse on Vintage. I said they didn't suit you.
6:21 Speaker 01 Yeah, you did. I wore red Converse on the abuse that I've received over those red Converse. And even when I mentioned them on that post that you put up of you very aggressively attacking me over them. And people came into the DMs and were just like, I'm sorry now, but she is right to get red Converse. I was like, excuse me, this is not up for discussion.
6:43 Speaker 03 They do look like, I'll be totally honest, and I was surprised at how honest I was with you about the red Converse. But I think we have the type, we are quite honest with each other, I would say.
6:55 Speaker 01 You are quite honest with me. Yeah, go on.
6:56 Speaker 03 Yeah, with each other.
7:01 Speaker 03 With each other.
7:02 Speaker 01 Honest, very loud.
7:04 Speaker 03 When I was on the Prosecco tour, Garret was on the Prosecco tour with me and he went from driving a Mini Cooper at the time.
7:13 Speaker 01 Mini Cooper, yeah.
7:15 Speaker 03 To driving a HiAce van to bring the set around. The set was a very deranged looking Baraka Tube with the sage thing hanging at the top foot, which looked great on week one, but by week 60 billion, it was hanging together like a piece of string. But I was, I had a lot on at the time and I was maybe overdoing it on the hard seltzers and.
7:39 Speaker 01 That's fair.
7:40 Speaker 03 That is fair. That's a fair assessment, isn't it? I was a bit green. I was new to the game. I was stressed. I was probably a little overworked and I was hitting the hard seltzers. But Garret had a very stern conversation with me at the time and he was like, I just don't think, I said, I think I'm gonna, I think I'm gonna drink less seltzers. And he went, yeah, I just don't think there's enough in the world to.
8:09 Speaker 03 Supply.
8:10 Speaker 01 Keep it going.
8:10 Speaker 03 Yeah, yeah, facilitate you keep them going was your answer. And then one day we were on the way to Cork, I think. And I took a post seltzer nap against a neck pillow, but on the, but on the car window. Would that be fair?
8:24 Speaker 01 Yeah, that is fair to say. Yeah. So if you were driving by, you would have seen like a little hole in the cushion with your nose and mouth pressed against the glass.
8:33 Speaker 03 On the side of the window.
8:35 Speaker 01 Yeah.
8:35 Speaker 03 But then I will say also, in my defence, Garret, you did also nearly take the lid off the van driving through a bridge. That was for a borrower. Yeah, it was like for a, it was for, it was a Polly Pocket bridge.
8:48 Speaker 01 The van was three foot too high to go onto this bridge, but I, but I, I went for it. I was like, if we just go quickly.
8:54 Speaker 03 Yeah, he's an adventurous spirit.
8:56 Speaker 01 I will tell you about that van, something I don't think I've ever told you, and I was thinking about this today. Uh, is I used to park a little loading dock right beside where I live.
9:04 Speaker 03 I think parking is a stretch. I think you, you would just throw it off and I'd roll out one door and then we'd hope for the best. And then they'd have to rearrange the flowers after.
9:13 Speaker 01 Yeah, I'd stop. I'd just stop it. Yeah, I wouldn't hurt.
9:16 Speaker 03 Yeah, you just stop. We'd stop and roll. Stop and roll. Yeah.
9:19 Speaker 01 Yeah. And I used to park it in this loading dock outside this electric shop near where I live. And they got very annoyed at me one day when I was getting into the van. They were really annoyed.
9:26 Speaker 03 No.
9:27 Speaker 01 They were saying like, you've been taking up the loading bay like for four days. And I was like.
9:31 Speaker 03 Yeah, cause I've been load, loading.
9:33 Speaker 01 I'm loading. Yeah.
9:34 Speaker 03 I'm loading and I'm buying and, and that's taken me four days.
9:38 Speaker 01 And he said, and this has been going on for quite a while. He said, this van has been parked here at night for months. And I was like, yeah, but nobody uses the loading bay at night. And he said, and it's not just the fact that you're taking up the loading bay. It's the broken wine glasses. Is that you as well? And I was like, it's nothing to do with me, but it was, it was. Cause it was always a wine, there was always a wine glass. That I would be getting out of the van and just knock on to it. And I was like, oh gosh, yeah.
10:02 Speaker 03 I was on the seltzers, Garret, not the wine.
10:05 Speaker 01 It, they were, well, they were, they were venue wine glasses.
10:08 Speaker 03 Venue. Oh yeah, fine. Yeah. No, for them.
10:10 Speaker 01 No, none.
10:16 Speaker 03 I've put on a Three Arena.
10:18 Speaker 01 Very exciting.
10:20 Speaker 03 Yeah.
10:20 Speaker 01 How are we only getting to this now?
10:22 Speaker 03 Garode is pretending, because no more than I to pretend that Vogue was going to the jungle. Garode knew that information, but Joe, you didn't.
10:28 Speaker 04 No, I didn't know that. That's big. When, when, when?
10:31 Speaker 03 It's going on, so Penophile, Three Arena in Dublin. It's not till next December, December 12th, but it'll be on sale when this goes out. And we're gonna go, we're going large. We're going Kevin and Perry large. Yeah, Garode will be there. Garode's gonna be on stage with me on the night. I'm thinking full, I could, this could be my opportunity to fly.
10:52 Speaker 01 I was just gonna say that. You were very keen to fly last time when you were doing Ghosted at the Three Arena.
10:59 Speaker 03 Very keen.
10:59 Speaker 01 Very keen to fly.
11:01 Speaker 03 But you have to learn how to do it. I was like, just throw me up and toss me round.
11:05 Speaker 01 The thing about flying at the Three Arena is that back in the day, the Three Arena was always too low to fly.
11:11 Speaker 04 Low to fly.
11:13 Speaker 01 It was a low roof. And like, as the legend goes, that when Beyonce came to Dublin back, I think it's around like 2010 or 2018. Like, it's a good while ago. She wanted to fly and they were like, too low, it's too low. Because she used to fly over the audience. And she insisted, she insisted on flying. And so, and somebody wrapped her shoes.
11:37 Speaker 04 No.
11:38 Speaker 01 Yeah. Which is the most Dublin, it is the most Dublin thing I've ever heard of. I mean, you can imagine that person just jumping and holding on.
11:48 Speaker 03 She wasn't flying really then. She was kind of just.
11:51 Speaker 01 She was levitating over the crowd.
11:53 Speaker 03 Yeah, she was levitating. Yeah. She was slightly elevated.
11:56 Speaker 01 Yeah, exactly.
11:58 Speaker 04 What I do think is whilst, you know, it sort of makes sense for Beyonce to fly, lots of amazing songs, et cetera. You get to the climax of the show, she flies.
12:07 Speaker 03 Joe's like, you have to deserve to fly.
12:09 Speaker 04 I'm not saying you don't deserve it. I'm just sort of a.
12:11 Speaker 03 No, you are. You're saying, yeah, you're saying you have to be a certain success.
12:15 Speaker 04 How do you get into it? Because when you're on, when you're Beyonce and you're singing a song and it's your most recognisable song, then it makes sense to fly. What, how are you gonna get into the flying? What will you do that gets you into the flying?
12:30 Speaker 01 What's the bit of material?
12:31 Speaker 03 Oh, well, okay, so it's a little.
12:36 Speaker 03 It'd wanna be some gag.
12:38 Speaker 04 You're gonna tell one of your old favourite gags.
12:40 Speaker 03 It'd wanna be some finisher, or a gag that you know isn't as strong. So when they're kinda deciding whether or not it's funny, you just start spinning through the air to kinda distract from the fact that the gag didn't work. I think that's maybe the strategy.
12:55 Speaker 04 Look, look at me.
12:56 Speaker 03 I have some material about drunk shopping that wasn't well reviewed. So maybe when I, when I do that, I'll just start, while they're like, I didn't think that was that. Oh my God, she's in the air.
13:10 Speaker 00 You're listening to a quick ad. You know what else is quick? Selling your car on Carvana. Just put in your vehicle information and we'll give you an offer. Done. No hassle, no negotiation, no guy from an online listing lowballing you. Which means by the time I'm done explaining this, you could have basically done it.
13:33 Speaker 00 Still haven't started? Hey, better late than ever. Sell your car today on Carvana. Pickup fees may apply.
13:46 Speaker 03 I know you don't listen to the podcast because you don't support me in the same ways I don't support you. But on the bonus apps, we read up an email. Now, I, this is a big day for me because I don't.
13:57 Speaker 01 You get to read the email.
13:58 Speaker 03 Because I, I, I, I, I'm already doing it. I panic under pressure of having to say too many things in a row.
14:05 Speaker 01 And I will just say that with regard to not listening to the pod, I did have to start listening to the pod because I had a very strange experience. I was in a Tesco's in Marion a while, like, like this would have been when we were on the last tour. And a woman that I had no idea who she was, came up to me and just went, "Do you really travel with a travel, your own travel kettle?" And I, I was just like, I don't know where this was coming from. I had no idea you'd spoken about it on the pod. I'd like, there was just so many.
14:30 Speaker 03 Oh my God, yeah.
14:33 Speaker 01 And I was just like, what, what, what, what? And she was like, and it took a while for her to explain where she'd heard it. She was just being.
14:41 Speaker 03 She probably wouldn't even remember.
14:43 Speaker 01 Very sinister. So I've had to start listening.
14:46 Speaker 03 Rowell's one of those travellers who, um, do you ever see these TikTok videos of women? Sorry, gross. Um, who are like, oh God, who are in hotel rooms on their own. And they're like, here's how I stay safe in a hotel room. And they're basically like nailing the door shut with like, uh, like it's so, it's the, it's so ridiculous to the point where the comments are like, why just stay home? Like if you, if you feel that unsafe, they're building like a panic room in the hotel. So they feel safe in this like random hotel and like it's, it's too much. That's, that's correct.
15:26 Speaker 01 I like to be prepared for every eventuality.
15:29 Speaker 03 Oh my God. He has a tablet box and we will get the email, I promise. Which he's now given me one, a tablet box, which is like a teeny tiny tablet box. But he has all the little, see the listeners won't be able to see, but I'll show. Now this is one he made for me. That's why all the stickers say illegal. But he has a tablet box that you open and, and each little vessel.
15:54 Speaker 01 Joe looks very concerned.
15:57 Speaker 03 Vessel, he has like ibuprofen, saltpen, um, uh.
16:01 Speaker 01 But we're on the road.
16:03 Speaker 03 For diarrhea, Imodium. Um, anyway, and he has them all labelled and put in, it is the most impressive thing ever. So anyway, obviously he got me one and he has just labelled mine as beta blockers, Prozac. And the rest just go illegal, illegal, illegal, illegal, illegal.
16:20 Speaker 04 Did, did they all do the same thing, the illegal ones? Or do we have to sort of?
16:24 Speaker 03 Miscellaneous.
16:25 Speaker 01 All, all I would say, Joanne, is that some people.
16:27 Speaker 03 I swallow first, ask questions later.
16:31 Speaker 03 There's a pink tablet in the bottom of a pencil case. And I'm like, I don't know, I, I sometimes if I'm anxious before a show, I'm like, I could take it. It could be a beta blocker, but it could be.
16:42 Speaker 01 Laxative.
16:43 Speaker 03 You wouldn't know.
16:45 Speaker 01 All I'm gonna say is, Joanne, that some people are prepared for these eventualities.
16:49 Speaker 03 Yeah.
16:49 Speaker 01 Like some people buy their medications from a chemist. Not everyone treats things with stuff they buy on the dark web.
16:56 Speaker 03 Yeah.
16:56 Speaker 01 That's all I'm saying.
16:57 Speaker 03 Exactly. Yeah. No, that's a fair point. Garbage.
17:03 Speaker 03 It's a fair point.
17:04 Speaker 01 Fair point, absolutely.
17:05 Speaker 03 Now, okay, so we, we, this, okay, so we have an email.
17:09 Speaker 01 Excited, I'm excited.
17:11 Speaker 03 It's gonna come out of my mouth and then garbage, it's your job then to have an opinion on it.
17:16 Speaker 01 Okay.
17:16 Speaker 03 Hey, girls and Joe, I've been thinking about writing in for a while and this week's bonus app has really given me the push. Please keep me anon as all my friends, listen to this part, as all women should, smiley face, that's very sweet, thank you. My husband and I have only been married two years. However, I too, like the previous emailer, have found, oh.
17:42 Speaker 04 I don't know how far back this emailer is talking about because I recall us talking about this subject, but I don't know how recent it was.
17:50 Speaker 03 Have found, I too, like the previous emailer, have found messages on my husband's phone to a Thai masseuse.
18:00 Speaker 01 Uh oh.
18:03 Speaker 03 I found a message which said, do you have half an hour now? Googled the, Googled the number, found it was a Thai massage parlor and also found it on a men's forum, so I am under no illusion.
18:24 Speaker 04 It's probably worth saying not all Thai massage parlors, isn't it?
18:28 Speaker 03 Oh, big time, I've gone, these poor women, I've gone in for a Thai massage and on the door, it's like, please keep your underpants on, please, please, please, like four pleases, yeah.
18:39 Speaker 01 Oh, that's so gross.
18:41 Speaker 03 My question is, I kind of agreed with your comments, if it's not an affair and he loves me and our family, if it's just a handoff, do I just leave him to it?
18:53 Speaker 01 Oh God.
18:54 Speaker 03 It does still make me upset and I feel really weird about the whole thing as we do have a decent sex life. So I don't understand why you would need to go. My biggest fear though is could this move on to something else as the years go by? Do they just offer hand jobs or is it the full shebang? I find myself hating the days off he has in his own as I think he's there at the parlor. But we are about to try for another baby and I don't know whether to address it or just let him carry on. I feel like if I address it, even if we can make our way through it, it will put a hold on the whole next baby thing. And body clockwise, I don't have too much time to waste. What would you do?
19:35 Speaker 01 Oh God.
19:37 Speaker 03 I know.
19:40 Speaker 01 They've got a baby already.
19:42 Speaker 03 She said, yeah, she said they're trying for another baby. It's like, do you take the occasional wank seriously? Is it, is it just a functional ejaculation? Is it just a bit of letting off steam, the way I suck my thumb or?
20:01 Speaker 03 Do we put a romantic element on it? Is there an emotional connection?
20:04 Speaker 01 Element on it, definitely not. This is just, this is just a little, he is just, this is a bit of mischief in his eyes. That's the way he sees it. He doesn't see it as a big deal. He doesn't see it as anything serious. Yeah, he's, he's not going to tell his wife about it. But this is something very separate. Like I don't think this is going to turn into an affair or anything like that.
20:28 Speaker 03 No, yeah, if anything, he is choosing the functional route rather than the emotional route. I, I do believe the more I engage with men like both of you and my other male friends. I, I re, I, I think I really understand men.
20:47 Speaker 01 Yeah, well, I, I, I think he, I think this is just someone that just wants a bit of excitement. It's responsibility, left, right and centre. And then he just goes and does this cheeky little thing every so often. That said, it is a betrayal.
21:00 Speaker 03 Well, yeah, it is, but like, isn't, like, I, I think men have the ability, Joe, you're not saying much here. I think men have the ability.
21:10 Speaker 04 Yeah, that, that's not an admission of anything or.
21:13 Speaker 03 Well, it is kind of actually.
21:14 Speaker 04 It absolutely is not.
21:15 Speaker 03 Silence is a response. Silence is a response. My therapist told me that. Silence is a response, Joe.
21:20 Speaker 04 There is absolutely no way, and I think this is probably a reflection of me as a male. I, I just, I couldn't go, I couldn't go in and do that because I, it's not, I don't see the point. I get why people are getting, they're functionally doing that.
21:38 Speaker 03 She hasn't chipped. She's got one AirPod in his bum bag. She just follows him around all the time.
21:44 Speaker 04 I'd imagine these sorts of places are cash only, and that's just a wild guess.
21:48 Speaker 03 Would you imagine that, Joe?
21:50 Speaker 04 Yeah, I would imagine that.
21:51 Speaker 01 No other information.
21:52 Speaker 03 Nothing at all. Just a gut instinct, is it?
21:55 Speaker 04 No, just, you know, you don't want the tax, you don't want the tax man poking around in those affairs. I just, oh dear.
22:02 Speaker 03 I'll rev you. A little rev wank.
22:06 Speaker 03 Yeah, you're not putting on the Barclays, let's face it. You're not creating a chain.
22:10 Speaker 01 I do think in my past, I have accidentally been one of those creepy men at massages. Because I got a massage when I was on holidays in Tenerife years ago. And there was this little, little lady who came in to give me the massage. And she just pointed me at the towel and this little blindfold thing. I thought it was a blindfold, but it was actually the underpants. You know, those little, those little strap with like, it's like a little strap of cotton with like two elastic bands on it. I thought it was a blindfold. And she was like, she indicated for me to take off my clothes. And then she went out the room. I stripped myself naked and then put this thing over my eyes.
22:46 Speaker 03 No.
22:47 Speaker 01 And then laid down on the thing, bollock mate. I'd never had a massage before. And then she came in and started screaming.
22:55 Speaker 03 Oh my god.
22:56 Speaker 04 Grody, you're the problem.
22:57 Speaker 01 Very embarrassing.
22:59 Speaker 03 You're the one, reason those signs are on the back of the door.
23:01 Speaker 01 I know, yeah, it was just please, please, please. I'm the fourth please.
23:05 Speaker 03 Oh no. I know that men can fuck functionally and feelinglessly, if that makes sense.
23:15 Speaker 01 Yeah.
23:16 Speaker 03 Yeah. And I'm sure there's women who can do it as well. I'm not one of those women. I kind of ride people I like. Or if I ride them, I like them after.
23:26 Speaker 01 Yeah.
23:27 Speaker 03 The riding's a bit of a gateway drug for me.
23:29 Speaker 01 It's like, this worked out well.
23:31 Speaker 03 Yeah, it's like, you're in me now, you break, you buy. And
23:38 Speaker 03 what's the plan for the, what's, what's our plan now? We're obviously, you're obviously mad about me, I'm mad about you. So it is confusing. And when I come up against those situations where you're like, oh, he just, it was just a functional ride for him. It's not like, you know, he doesn't like me, he doesn't like my character or personality or anything like that. Um.
23:57 Speaker 01 But you're very evolved.
24:00 Speaker 03 Evolved or beaten down? Like, evolved or traumatised? Yeah, it could be, it could be that I'm evolved, or it's that I've dealt with so many of these situations that I just accept it now for what it is. So if my husband was getting the odd tug off a masseuse in a parlour somewhere, I'll be honest, I'd probably want, I'd probably do a drive by and see what she looked like. That's hands up, that's me being totally honest.
24:30 Speaker 03 That's terrible, isn't it? But I would, I wanna see what I'm, I wanna see what I'm dealing with. And if she was like, super duper hot, like fashion model, super duper hot, I would feel a little put out. If she was a normal enough woman and he was just getting it, like a little tug just to relax himself, I think, I think I'd let it go. Until I had a drink and then obviously. Oh dear.
24:58 Speaker 01 The world would fall.
24:59 Speaker 03 Yeah, I'd store it all up and be like, no, no, doesn't matter. And then I'd wait for our anniversary or Valentine's Day or some day like that. And I'd drink two bottles of Pinot Noir and then I'd go fucking mental. Yeah. No, that's, so that's my advice.
25:14 Speaker 01 I don't think she should be putting herself into a situation where she's having another baby with this lad.
25:19 Speaker 03 What? Why? Because he's got a tug off a masseuse?
25:23 Speaker 01 Yeah, I just feel because there's a disconnect here. Like, I think that for her, like, if, if this is happening, right? She, and she feels, feels this way about it, I don't think she should be having another baby with him. I think she's had a baby with him, I think grand, but I, I don't think, I think that she will frustrate herself. Because all through this pregnancy, every time he, you know, he heads off, she's like, is he going, is this what he's doing? And I think being pregnant is difficult enough when your.
25:49 Speaker 03 Yeah.
25:50 Speaker 01 Partner is on board.
25:52 Speaker 03 I'm gonna, I'm gonna tell you this now, as a woman speaking to two lads.
25:57 Speaker 01 Okay.
25:58 Speaker 03 And, and as a woman who has had many pregnant friends, that is, as, as a pregnant woman, your fella getting a tug off a masseuse is the least of your fucking worries. I know, I, I'm telling you, I know women who've found that their husbands are having full blown affairs. I know pregnant friends of mine whose husbands have left them when the baby was two weeks old. I know women who have chosen to have babies on their own because they're like, I can't rely on this prick. Like, there is so much, like, women being pregnant brings so much into the relationship that, I mean, I'd love to get Joe's take on it, but obviously we, we won't because we'll get the official line. But it shifts so much in the dynamic.
26:40 Speaker 03 I think, I think sometimes men then kind of see them as a mother rather than like a partner they wanna ride. And there's, like, there's so much going on, there's so much chaos. So like, genuinely, if I wanted to have a baby.
26:54 Speaker 03 My partner nipping off for the odd wank down a massage parlor wouldn't stop me, to be honest.
27:02 Speaker 01 Okay, alright, okay.
27:03 Speaker 03 It really wouldn't, it really, really wouldn't. I'd be more concerned about like, is he gonna help me raise the baby? I'd be like, okay, if we split up, at least I have someone else I can give the baby to with the weekends. Actually, this is great. Have a kid with them, then bring up the time a huge wanking situation. Co-parent, get your life back.
27:22 Speaker 01 Are you saying basically like, instead of like shagging the nanny, you're shagging someone first and then they become the nanny?
27:28 Speaker 03 That's exactly what I'm saying.
27:31 Speaker 04 It's probably time to say that we don't offer professional advice, isn't it?
27:35 Speaker 03 Sorry, Jo, no, I've actually, no, I've had an epiphany. If I got knocked up by a lad, I'd set him up, I'd put one of those sugar butter people in, what are they called? The butter people, you know when you set them up?
27:46 Speaker 04 Honey pot.
27:47 Speaker 03 Honey pot!
27:49 Speaker 04 Sugar butter.
27:50 Speaker 03 I'd put one of the sugar butter ladies in. Catch them in the honey pot and grant and gift myself a co-parenting situation so he has to have the kid half the time.
