My name is Sam Russell, one of Jayme Wright and this is "Create Your Story". Just a quick disclaimer before we start, Jayme and I are not professionally trained counsellors or psychologists or health trained. This podcast is based off the opinions and lived experiences from ourselves. Do you are struggling, reach out to lifelong on 1-3-1-1-4 or book an appointment with your GP and talk about a mental health care plan today? Let's try it out. We're on. We're on early Thursday morning. It's already in the lollies. I'm having a fucking mentor say. Anyone that fucking took it like that? Famous blues, blues, blues. Alright, that's what I'm having. Blues go up. Everyone that's dead is included myself. You just can all get fucked. Ah, good. Yeah, I didn't even. I was saying to the boys yesterday, I don't think I talked to a few people but I was like, "It doesn't even feel like origin." I think it's because we're always the underdog, so we're always getting harked up saying we should win this, we should do that. Yeah, no, I wasn't expected. No, not up there. No. But I guess what? We fucking did. And we took that shield home. And if anyone out there wants to turn around now and say they think Cleary, he doesn't do any big games, that was a pretty big game. He's done it. Game 3, his uncle, become the equal top, most points by an individual in a designer. Why didn't they take that too? He took the too, he would have been top. I don't know why they didn't. Okay, I don't need it. Yeah, we don't need it. I don't even think we were talking about it at the end there. I don't even think he would have realized that that was a thing because he was just producing a score two try. I had to say. I used that for a top point score all the time. That's wild. But I suppose we've had some pretty big wins where he's a gold key. Yeah, true. Yeah. But anyway, we've got that shield over coming back. I think the boys are ripping it up there. But that's like when we did it a couple of years ago when we went on the designer up there. And that was the first time since like, I thought it was something. But I think we've won four of the last six games in that Suncourt now. Yeah, I don't think coins don't really get origin in Suncourt. That's all we get. Oh, it's a lot of fucking easy. It's not hard. Now, but to be honest, I was a bit suss on Low Day Lee's selections. Oh, 100%. But I think everyone was. I think I feel like his strategy, his in-game strategy was a lot better this year. And I think he's a bit of a bit more of a good player. But he's a bit more of a good player. He's a bit more of a good player. I think he's a bit more of a good player. And he's a bit more of a good player. That tried a e-scored, was just luck. Yeah, I know. That always happens to the ball ends and the hands. But now, shared out to the boys in Lowry Daily, I know I bagged you out, but it was good to see him get a win. Yeah, I wonder if I can find this press conference. I can't imagine how much, how hard it'd be, fucking just copping slack all the time. Like, we seen him in a pregame interview with Joey. I think it wasn't a shared game. It just looked drained, bro. Yeah. You know what the coach does? The coach drives it. So just frustrates me. Just frustrates me a lot. But the coach sits at the time. The coach talks to us, coach is about how they want to implement plans. Some of the stuff that's been written and said, gee, come on. And anyway, hopefully after those boys, we'll have a decent look at themselves. I wasn't about the last laugh I was just about these boys flying the best they possibly could. Any particular people have a crack, whether that even come to a training session, they won't fall up to press conferences. Show some balls. Well, we're all in need to come over. You got to be up there. You got to find them. Make a post to anybody in CQ Live. They're here for the fair and two boys. They're just going to wash it off. Actually, we've been in need to say. Well, you know what? You know what? I'll see. I'll see. I get the sense loads of you know what I'm going to put you in. I'll see. I'll see. I'll get the sense loads of you know what I'm going to put you in. I'll see. I'll see. I'll put loads of you in. I've never seen a coach come over. Easy. I just think it was unnecessary. I think it was hidden agendas. Sometimes things are planted in the media too. So I'd love to know where that comes from. Cause I'm out of it. You don't know how it all works. Yeah. But when you put a lot into a game and put a lot into. Yeah, trying to be the person you are. And people attack you from an angle that you go well. Yeah. That's what I'll be read. But I hope it never happens to you one day. Fuck you. Come to the river. Yeah. No. If you look. I've always said he's the greatest coach of all time. Oh. I said. He loves ball. Loads ball. Hopefully he signs another. Nah. Nah, he's done. He's done. But how is he going to say that? That was good to say I'm getting the win. But yeah. That's two questions. Yeah. I think, um, Braddie best. He's a game-throwy specialist. Yeah. There's certain. Yeah. But there's certain players. You just got to pick him. In origin. Like he's one of them. Staving Crockton. Just defensively. And there was a couple of raids there that. Yeah. There was too much space. He just got burnt. He did. He did a raid rule early where he caught it on Cape Hill. Yeah. And um, Cotto. It was a couple. Yeah. He had a break. But he slipped over and went in the touch. Yeah. I thought they would have went down that side a bit more. Yeah. Um. But he's just like that. Martin's probably another one. Yeah. He just got a pick. Yeah. He bring that. That'd be a dog fuck. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You need that straight ahead. Greater Brankston. Hey. All the mate. The boys stepping up paying. Howdy. Mm. All of them. But I was mad to say, but I think. Just the quick playables at paying gets. Yeah. Off the back of that. I think Rob's one was really good. It was really good. Um, getting it. Actually getting out of dummy half. I think there's so much. That's where you get those six against. Or you get that sort of off the cuff play when you're. You know, dummy half. It's not just like bang pass. Yeah. But no, look, stout. It was mad. Yeah. Just good to get the win. Up in Queensland. No, it's good. We. Like I said, I wasn't expecting it. Moses kicking game was pretty good. Right. He's banging him long. I'm massive. Only mate. No, is that one decision that we got this. We clearly put a grab. We're going to six to get like six. Six. Six to six. We got a six to get like six. Six to go. And Moses tried to go down the line. To give it a way. We could have pumped him. Yeah. Well, I think we're just going easy on the. Same answer. Yeah, they just don't get away. Fucking not really. Rocket. What is it? It's got more points than the other team. Um, and I feel like when you got players like Reese Walsh on the bench. And you start losing. There's kind of too many options. Like Paul Pongeroff. They put him in there. Yeah, I don't know what's happening there. Like that. Paul Walker off her head check like. Hmm. That was a bit going on. Oh, look, I was a bit scared when you see Walker. I mean, when you see Ponger and Walsh on the same field. You're like, but I don't. Yeah. We lose. Most of the N Teddy to H.I.A. It's like, that's pretty resilient from outboys. When you've got every single, pretty much every single, um, position on the bench bar. Or once collar come on, you know. Yeah, yeah, that's right. So, now all in all good win by the boys, eh? Hmm. Good win, eh? What else you've been doing? No, I've just been a busy week. No, doc. No, doc. No, doc. Monday, Tuesday. Um, Crews along did some stuff there yesterday. But now it's been a busy week. Sort of shooting this podium. Pretty tired, do you know? I think I stayed up that late there after a week. Yeah, good luck. After an origin win, particularly a decider. And after the game finishes, you're just going laying back and you're on your phone, you're just reading all the comments and. Yeah. And all your stories, you're just having fun sharing an origin set. Yeah. Yeah, it's good. I love that. There's nothing worse when it's the other way around. Yeah, I was about to say it's even worse. What you're watching all the awards and shit, you're like, how good it is. Yeah, it feels clean, so much. I'll turn it straight off. It cleans that one. Good dogs. What do you mean? You've been doing, has your week been? Yeah, flat out. And we just had a few night walks. We had a story after that thing, though. So, share that to that mom up there. That was a good day. Busy day, but yeah, we just. We're up there. I had a bit of a stall and I drove the van up, which was good. - Holy. - I actually drove in there. - I don't, that's me. But yeah, it's such a big wakey kind of get to the end of it. You're like, "Oh, 'cause like, you know, you got. " I was only saying the other day, like there's some people that yeah, like a little time and respectful, but that's the way you're only seeing one night, okay. - Yeah. - 'Cause you're just so busy through the year. - And it's like, I've found it hard, especially during the march and stuff, like when I was marching, I'd see so many people I wanted. I'd do it. - Yeah. - But it's hard to talk to 'em in that setting as well. And you sort of want to get around to everyone and have a young talk. - Yeah. - But no, it's been good. It's been busy like you said. - We got a. - Who's your cop up, you know? - Mendes, family, fun day tomorrow. - Yeah, no, I can't go there 'cause I'm gone away for work. - Two. - But hopefully the rain stays away. - You got a ballerina. - Gone up the ballerina. - Just for this weekend and then I'll have a good up next weekend off. - Yeah. - I like to play sharks. - Well, we got, I was telling your old boy there about we got indigenous around it. Because it's saddy, so. - You got over A. - Yeah, hopefully. - Nah, that's good. - It was a good day. - Fall's gonna go away. It would be mad if they played the hoax or I can. - Yeah. - If they played the hoax on indigenous around. - Yeah, by like. - Why did you get the fucking out of these leaves? But you know what? - Fucker. - So yeah, dude, I don't know the way again, but. I don't know, bro, that's been the way. - Yeah, it's just, it's good to have today as a bit of all race talk all of that stuff. And whatnot, just do a few hard jobs, but. - Crews down there? - But fuck. - Oh, no, yeah, it does. You just want to just go to roll the punches for night. I can just keep going, but it does fill your cup up but it also drains just a little bit as well. - Yeah. - Yeah. - And then we head to Sydney next week. - Yeah, Nations. - Nations of origin means, emin cultures down there. - I got your gear in my car. - Yeah. - If anyone wants a nation's polo or hoodie, send through an offer and I might be able to sell jibs. - Yeah, so I'm by me, whoever wants it. - Now, I'm looking forward to that. A record, we might try and take the marks down and do a bit of content. - Yeah, I hear them up and they said, yeah. - Yeah. - They said there's stuff, so I'm gonna take some marks down. We can get some boys on there. - We'll do the create, we'll do the create your story. We'll do a bit of a marked up, we'll do a training session or something. - Wacked up. - Hey. - Marked up at the zoo. - Wacked up at the zoo. - Jib at the zoo. - Hey, back home. - Yeah. - Where's the long? - Jib in the enclosure. - The zoo, I don't know if I've been or a zoo before. - Yeah, well this is not to wrong or it's easy. - Oh, it's easy. - Isn't it? - Yeah, I'm not going there. (laughing) - Now you're on about how I'm actually excited 'cause I think all, like, so what is it? It's PCYC, it's our nation's. - Yeah. - But all the PCYC clubs that are involved in it, they all come to the zoo and you go. - Oh really? - Yeah, so you get like two hours to just free walk around essentially. - Yeah. - And then, yeah, yeah. And then it's like everyone has dinner together at five, but then you do cultural exchanges. - Yeah, right. - So every club has to provide something cultural. So dances, things like that web provided in artwork, yeah. - Well, I'm the exchange with another PCYC. - Like, yeah, I think so. Or like, we just give it to someone, but obviously the dances are different, but. - Yeah, yeah. - That's pretty good. - It's a bit hard to orchestrate a dance with 48 kids, so we still would aren't working, but I'm keen to see what people come up with. - No, that'd be good. I didn't know it was like that. - Yeah. - Yeah, so it crews down there Monday to play Tuesday, Tuesday or day in the Wednesday morning. I believe. - Yeah, I think so, yeah. - I think that's how it works, but now it'll be good. - It depends how we go. - Depends how we go, yeah. No, no, we're not. - Easy. - But no, I mean, Sam, you just thought, I don't know, there's a lot of young people in the art community here in Maitlin. That Maitlin, we'll make, I wonder if we haven't had a side in a while. - Yeah, so. - A lot of people that we know too. - Yeah, a lot of families and a lot of young people in the team that we know and. I guess we want to sort of build something from here and from the ground up for what it would be. A bit stronger in that sort of sense with the PC WRC nations. - It's a good opportunity for the young people to go down and represent their community and get some kit and play footy. - Hey, so. - In the school world, I used to. - I'm looking forward to it. - That'll be good. - I'm looking forward to it, stay down there and pattern it if I believe, so. - Yeah. - It'll be good, bro. - Yeah. - And then we get to that one. - And we'll just start. - Watch out this out. So I guess for anyone that is interested, there is like some Wesley Life Force suicide prevention training. So obviously, like you do a bit with you matter. I think I'm probably gonna jump on the board as well. - Yep. - And they're providing that Wesley Life Force there are providing free. It's free for everyone that wants to be involved. So they've got two sessions. Thursday the 13th of August is East Made in Bowler and Club 9 to 130. So we might be able to put the link somewhere or post it or something, but I think that, and then there's another one. I think it's on the Friday of the 14th of August, same time, but it's at Rado. - Yeah. - Is it Made in the city? - No, I believe it's the community center. - Oh yeah. - Without doing that program. - Yeah, man. So it's free training and I think for, if you've got some time available on that Thursday or that Friday, I reckon you should go check it out because we always talk about what people, a lot of people don't realize unless they've been kind of, like struggled with mental health or seeing people that are struggling with mental health is it's not like psychologists and the counsellors and the actual people like that, that deal with it on the ground. It's everyone else. Like, you know, it's the friend, it's the mom, it's the dad, it's the cousin or, you know, like the partner or something. So it's just good to go and ask for yourself in that. It's also a prevention and I remember, I've done like a heap of different kinds of that training but it's always good just to learn about what the current appropriate, like languages to use and what you should say to someone that is struggling and I think that when someone is in that crisis situation the way you speak to him or what you say to him could be, you know, a reason why they don't go through with that plan. So. - And I think with probably the co-auth that listen to this party is like sort of, that sort of age as well that make me much struggle to have that conversation. Like if you see it make struggling and you sort of know you can see that, I guess these trainings designed to be able to have those conversations or how to at least start those conversations. And for me, I thought I didn't, I don't know if it was last year, might have been the year before I did the training and it was good because you had people from more different experiences there and tell their story and what they've done or what they've used to help them or someone else. So if you got their means then we'll be attending the other Thursday one, Guamadish Smetland. So even if you want to come along with us to sing us a message, we're more than happy for you to come along but I think it's very valuable for anyone to sort of jump on and check it out, I reckon. - Yeah, for sure. - It's the go. - Well, so we're gonna do some facts. - Yeah, I actually struggled with this because I swear I had a hape of facts and I thought, you know how you hear cool facts, you're like, oh yeah, I don't remember that. - Yeah. - I don't remember, fuck all. - The one, I don't know if I've told this on the party before but I've told the iron about like the camera number plates. - No. - So I was told this when I was in camera. - Is it fact or cap? - Oh, that's good one. - I was told this when I was in camera for ECX. - I'm just gonna go down there. - That was actually acting. - My, it's bad. - Yeah, 'cause we went down and you know, you got a parliament house? - Yeah. - Yeah, well, like a week before we went, we're at school, they were cautioned in this room and they're like, I have some exciting news to share but we all need to do some like safety briefings like when we go to parliament house on that day, it's the same day that Barack Obama's flying into the country so he was gonna be at parliament house. - That's what. - So bro, like, spin it up. - Didn't say it, Bob. - Yeah, it shook his hand. - No, he did. - Sweat mom's cause. - Hi, it's you. - Mom's. - Do you got any photos? - I got photos of it. I don't know if photos of me shaking his hand. I'm 60 years old with a fucking disposable codec. - I'm running loud in there. But, bro, we're walking to parliament house. - Can you take your seconds and shoot? - Bro, we're walking to parliament house. I'm a 12 year old kid from Dungo. I'm looking around going, that's a sniper rifle on the roof. Like, just a guy sitting up there, there's like people everywhere. - I never got the kids from Dungo coming in and they have on keeping an eye on him. - Right, so you go through security and they full check you down. Our president, our prime minister of our school, school captain, she was off African American descent. He basically, we're all just got our arms reached out like that. He walks past, he shakes everyone's hands. - That's her off. - She ducks under everyone, gets to the front. She looks at him, she's like, "Can I hug?" And he gives her a hug, bang, blah, like that. He's news everywhere. - True. - Yeah. 'Cause like, that's pretty walled out. I'll show you right. - Dango high school mate, Barack Obama. Who is that promise to then Kevin? - Julie Gillard. - Dango girls, thanks. - Hard for president. - Oh, so he's not lying. - True. - That was hectic. Chelsea Gallagher. - Yeah, yeah. - Chelsea, I'll be talking to that old fucking dog. - Right, Matt. And like, there you go, I 2012. They got all the news out there. - Fuck, that's wild mate. You want me over to see like, - Big semi, somewhere. - Yeah. - Right, I trained to like yesterday for the first time in, there he is. - True. - But, they were all taking like all these interviews and everything. And then, so we went in there. That was like a spin out, it was mad. The next morning we go to breakfast at a little hotel and it chicks like, and the teachers like, we've had some rise call up in the Stasjo and they don't want to do an interview, a federation, a square or whatever, the park or whatever, any parliament. So we're gonna draw out 20 names I think, from the heart for the year. And they're gonna go with Chelsea to there to do like a little thing. And I was one of the 20. - Oh, yeah, it was mad. It was good experience. - Straight on. - But, what I was gonna say was the bus driver told us this fact. I did some googling last night and I found that, they don't really, there's nothing to confirm it, being true. But, you know, this part, this part's true. That all camera number plates start with why? - True. - And he told us it was because the two roads and then the main road on Parliament House. - Oh, 'cause they go like a Y. - Yeah, yeah, right. - But if you have a look at the camera number plate, they all start with Y. And then they all start with the other one. - Yeah, so that's, that's the little factor. - I put one in test actually last night. - I think it was the good one of me and Ali will make him peaches and she reckons. If you wet a paper towel, put it right near the onion that you cut and get eyes don't water. - Yeah. - I didn't, well, it did water. So, it actually worked. So if you're out there cutting onions, red onions, I feel like it just depends on the onion, really. Sometimes they're fucking potent sometimes they're not. But look, I chopped half an onion with not the sharpest knife and it didn't fucking hurt my eyes. So if you're out there, just the paper towel out and let me know. But I had way more, I got, brum, and then I was trying to find them and then no one, I can't find any. - Well, I was looking at, I was seeing this video on this podcast the other day and he's quite told the maddest young about a fact. And then the other guy's like, "Oh, that makes my fact look silly." And he's like, "What's your fact?" And he's like, "Shakil and Il is only ever shot one." - Oh, I've seen that video. - Yeah, yeah. - Whatever he told. - I do remember that because I was mad. - I feel like this Shaqia ideal one, even is pretty good, but then they did. - Yeah, it fucked that up. - Whatever he told was so good. - Can you talk about it on TikTok or not? - I don't know what it's all about. - Just say Shaqia ideal fact. - Yeah, right. - Now I do remember seeing that video. - Mm. - But let's try a fucking, nah, they're all fucked. Well, I have facts about Shaqia now. - Yeah. - But if I have one more lolley, I'm gonna, I'm gonna skits. I'm gonna be on the skits mission. - Yeah, I couldn't find the video again. I thought I was able to save that, but I didn't. - I also thought it was my Asian find facts. - Maybe that's a fact. How did you find facts? - Fact is, it's hard to find actually half these facts. - Where's your shit? - Mm. You wanna play a game? - Yep. - To truth and law. - Yeah. - Yeah, go. - Come on with him. - God, this fucking thing. - But it's right on me. (laughing) - You know what I'm saying? - No, I've been. - That's red art. To truth and law, right? - Fuck. You go first. - No, no. I never, I never been overseas. My name is Chinese, and my grandfather is, wait up, no, I gotta go again, 'cause I just told three truths. Fucking only thing would have done some research of this. As I say, I knew the first one was right, and then I know the second one was right. - Might've been. - You think it yours too, right? - Yeah, I am, boy. I've got a, - Are you going there? - To truth and law. My meal name's Harrison. I refged 40 for, I refged 40 before, and worked at Maccars. That was my two jobs when I was younger, and I was school captain in primary school. - Harrison. - What about it? - It's not true. - Yeah. - All right, Jaden Harrison, right. What are you doing? I was thinking of a fucking random name there. Thought I did all right. - All right, we'll go. I can think of a game and doesn't even know. We'll go with, I got two middle names, my name's Chinese, and I have once traveled over our upper intercans before. - Yeah, you don't have two middle names, bud. (laughs) - Yeah, I do. - I do. - Yeah, so you lead Nathan Russell. - True. - I've never been to Cans, boy. - Fuck, I don't know. - My name is actually an Aboriginal Chinese, brah. Hectic. - Actually a few of them. And you know what I know why? - Well, we then know well, a while, this is only from, you know where out past more rein stuff, a lot of the Chinese come over here and was pushed out to them, like remote Aboriginal Chinese. So there's a lot of Aboriginal Chinese getting around. - Yeah, it's been out. - Very good. - What's the whole game? We need to do some more research. - Yeah. - This is a bit of a random pod because we already recorded on Monday. - Yeah, and now it's Thursday. - This is app 9, too. - App 9, yeah. - We're trying to get someone on for app 10. - Hey, when I fucking post you on Instagram, can you just fucking engage or I'm gonna start to get in there? - Yeah. - Don't fucking point at listening to me or if you're not gonna engage with the Instagram. - Proper. - Share it out. - Pull your heads in. - Pull your fucking head out your ass. (laughs) - No, but I think it's been, look, that someone's saying the fact or not. - Yeah, I did. - 9 apps in but, or actually I've got a fact. - Kick, talking for a bit. - Yeah, it will. (laughs) (crickets chirping) (laughs) - Here we go, it's good. - No, I've got a map on. It's not yours, but. - No. - Well, we've done 9, I ain't stop chewing, too. We've done 9 episodes on our potty. Around 90% of podcasts don't make it past 3 episodes. Roughly 75% never reached 10 episodes. So we are currently in the top 3%. - Hmm. - In the whole world, the podcast. Getting on here and talking shit. - That's active. - It's being good. But yeah, we're thinking every 10th episode we're gonna get a, um, Gaston. So does someone local I reckon that's got a bit of a story? - Or just can come on and spin a good arm. - Well, because I'm replying to it, it's a fact on the better looking cousin. That's no fact. But. Got one here. The oldest customer complaint in the world is nearly 4,000 years old. Google AI-NASA. - True. - I wanna just Google it. - Wait, what was it again? - It was the oldest customer complaint in the world is nearly 4,000 years old. - True. - They tell me what to Google. AI-NASA. - That was kind of, we got skamed. - All right. - There's five colors that appear in every flag in the world. - What? - Wait, what? - Yeah. - All those only five colors used. - Like. - Yeah. - Yeah, they appear in every flag in the world. - These five colors. - Oh yeah. Red. - Yeah. - What? - No. - Black. - Yeah. - Green. - Yellow. - Yeah. - Blue. - Yeah. - I'm using as a color to represent the Olympic rings. - Oh. - Oh, is that it? - Yeah. - Was that your actual fact that you were talking about? - Yeah. - Nah, I'm just saying. - Yeah. - So I always got it. I remember when I was on stuff in school, I was like, "Oh, you know what, I am you in the kangaroo, "the, um, What is it? What are you talking about? Is it the kangaroo and the Amy that are the kind of arms? Yeah, because they can't walk backwards. True. Yeah, because we just can't move forward. Yeah, create your story and just fucking keep it. Yeah, guys, that's why the Amy and that is the. But I look like nothing if you react to me more than people that just say. The dumbest stuff that I'm like, have you ever thought about that? Yeah. How can a country be in debt? Why don't we just print more money? I'm like, do you understand that? Like, that's just going to drive the dollar down? Yeah, I'm not selling pretty money, but I. If anyone's going to want to print his out there or something like that, I'm not stopping. Or they're like, I don't understand why people wouldn't about fuel prices because I put $50 and I still put $50 and it's still $50 and because you get less fuel, you can put more $50. Yeah, be back then tomorrow. We're doing the same thing. Fucking fuel prices. Yeah. They're fucking going down and down. Yeah, well, they're going back up a little bit because they put really. The tax. Yeah, I fucking. Yeah, driving the dollar and it takes the area out of your fuel. Wait, that's a matter of driving. Oh no, that's a fucking. That's a fucking lie. It's the shit you're just driving. Yeah. What's your. Do you have, um, just like a negative you want to talk about from the week? One thing that he's job? Because I was that one. Yeah, I want to say, but I don't think I can. Okay, that's right. This movie. Mine is. Telsha. Get your shit together, cause. How do you have so many allergies? Well, I didn't even affect me, I. Are you Telsha? Yeah. Where were you yesterday? Fucking cruise and not me and Hutton. Dole more. Well, it's done. Yeah, it works off and then went to the gym in the morning and then. Well, no, I didn't really check my phone in the morning. No, I've seen like this massive outage, but. Yeah. It's gonna affect me. I pay that good. That good Telsha. It was. Like, it happens so much. It's wild. It's. How does it happen? What is it done? What the fuck is doing up there in Telsha box? Like, and those 70 triple zero calls that didn't go through, 300. I thought that doesn't matter, but. Doesn't it? Uh-huh. I thought if my phone was an aeroplane, I can still ring triple zero. And what about this. Thing that's in and out on the 27th of July? That'll hurt. Hmm. Yeah, and they've. I've seen posts saying, like, if. You have like a. Safe phone. And safe phone and stuff like that, it'll still go off, even if it's turned off. Hmm. Have they done that before? Like an alert like that? What's the point is to know that they're all fucking tracking us all along? Yeah, probably. So how many phones are our scheme and guns? Um. Also, if this might be. Is it something that I found out the other day, but. Might be useful. I think before the end of this year, it might even be an effect, yeah. But you can transfer across your rental bond to another property. Really? Yeah, so for example, I'm renting at the moment. Your renting at the moment, if you decide to move into a new joint, instead of waiting for them to pay a bond out, then use that bond to pay that bond. You can just digitally transfer it across. And then pay the excess if you have to. Or get a refund on the excess if you have to. Yeah, there's other people get their bond back. Or if you're through a real estate. Yeah. Yeah. True that's all right. Well, can I say negative? People that are fucking think they're too entwalled. And I like. Just like. At the cafe or somewhere and they just. They're just rude as fuck. Yeah, maybe they'd know say hello when say hello to them. Yeah, that's another one. Well, I fucking did the thing and I've done it a couple of times. I cause a newy gone for a run. And I'm not fucked this up. I'm gonna say hello to every single person. That doesn't have headphones in pretty much. Yeah. And say who says hello back. And sometimes you get fucked or. Yeah, what are. Fuck them. This isn't a question in our office the other day about what's. What's like a. What's an unwritten rule that you have? That isn't an actual rule. Like what's a law that you'd bring in? Like a small one. My arm was. If you're at the shops and you're on a travelator thing, escalator. Firstly, don't stand still. Just keep walking. Like you get a mad opportunity to walk quicker than you normally would. Keep walking. Secondly, when you get off the escalator, if you see something like that, you haven't seen for ages and you want to have a yarn. Don't do it as soon as you get off the escalator because everyone else is coming. They go to get off the escalator. Step to the side. Get the fuck out of the way. That goes in general. If you're gonna stop and yarn the people, step to the side. Get out of my way. I got stuff to do. And go into the shops for me is already like a. Triggering. It's just like. It's two types of people. Some of them will go shopping. They'll walk around all day and they'll look at things and they'll spend six hours in there and they'll buy one thing. That's my Mrs. That's what she likes to do. Then there's me. I'm like, "All right, before we go, what are we going for?" This, this and this. What shops we go on? Bang, bang, bang. And I'll just go and I go to them shops and get it out of there. Most of the time I go to them shops, I'm like, "Fuck, I can't really be fucked, I'll just go." So you know how many times I've been like, "All right, we'll get paid and I'll go shopping. Get some new clothes in there." I get there and I'm like, "Cut me, fuck me, fuck." Just something else completely different. Me and a funny story, like me and my mate, that my mate that passed away in 2019, we used to go to Green Hills, we were driving there. I'm like, "Yeah, we'll go shopping, get some clothes in there." We'd get to Green Hills, he'd be like, "Hmm, can't really be bothered, he'll go and get a haircut." Get a haircut then we'll just end up the George. - Hey. - Just betting on head to the tails on Kena. - Yeah, no clothes were born. - Nah. - Nah, I'm fucked for it. Like I'll go up there with it, and I'll need a new jumper on you. And then I'm like, nah, okay, fuck. Just get me a clone or something. Wait, if you want a new jumper, is it normal? - Normal, yeah. - Yeah, they're black ones with the pink, they're fresh. - I lost 10K worth of stock at the new E. Now the 10, apparently they lost heaps of stock that were got wet. - Real? - Yeah. - Just discounted half to the mob. - Hey, you was a cheek one. - I think the Z-Bow was like half down. - Yeah, if you. - Any sponsors out there? - Dang it for sponsors, eight. - You're talking shit. Nah, I've got a positive, but they were some gratefuls. - I've got a positive, so for those that don't know, can you see me? - Yeah, I can hear. - For those that don't know, probably the last three to four months, I'll probably work in casually and like, don't stuff on my own business. And I'm one that really is massive on routines. So when I was working nine to five, I'd have my routine down part, training five times, five to six times a week, up or four work, steps after, had it all in, you know? And then obviously, go and do your own stuff and work in different hours that there's no set time, really through a spending in the works. So I was trying for ages, I took a step away from my coach, my PT, but I've just restarted back with him on Monday. And he's someone that for those that don't have one, or are unsure about it. He's someone that, because always one of them, like I was unsure about it at the start, and I was like, "Glacto, I need that." Or, I kind of fooled that, but I was spending money on fucking peace. But it's someone that holds me accountable in so many different aspects of me life, like it's obviously intrusion and training, but I feel like if them two things run point, everything follows suits, your sleep's good. You're more productive, yeah. I'm staying off the piece because I'm with him, you know what I mean? - It's something different. - It's something that things fall in place. And I had a good yarn to him, shed at Twiler on Monday for about an hour, just discussing all things life. It wasn't even thinking later that just sort of a few goals, but also just checking on each other. And yeah, I think it's been something that obviously, I was gonna do after Bali, so I was always keen to sort of get back and do it. So it's just been good, meal, prep, stun, straight up, been trained, like I'm training three times this week. - Yeah. - That's a bit of a positive, gone into it, so I'm grateful for people that, and he's honestly someone that I've won the only people that I've met, not the one of the only people, but one person that I've met, there's just so passionate about his job. He's just so, and he's so good at it, bro, like everything that he does comes from a good place. It's the way he speaks and sort of pumps you up, but he's not afraid to tell you if you fucked up as well, which I like at the time I don't, and probably wanna call him here. - Yeah. - But it's something that I need. - Yeah, that's good. So I'm grateful for people that are in roles, we're in jobs, and they're, I can passionate about what they do, not just on a specific day or when it suits them, but they're always passionate about it, and you can see that in their eyes, you know what I mean? - Yeah. - So I'm grateful for you guys out there, that you're free out there, and you're passionate about your job. - Yeah, I love you. - I'm not long, I'm long so I'd like that. That's good, I think. If you're not passionate about what you're doing, don't want something to happen to you. - Yeah. - Nice to short, though. - Well, I spent too many years doing something that, for the good money, you know what I mean? I'm like, "Well, you're doing that. "You're in the ones, that must be mad." - Yeah. - That's not actually for me. - Yeah. - And so many people with difference, people would be passionate about working in there. - Yeah. - You don't mean, but you need to find what's right for you. Know what suits everyone else's agenda. - Yeah. - Money comes and goes, "Oh, I've seen a mad quote." Money comes and goes, "No. "You'll nearly always forget how much money "you spent on one tree, "but you'll never forget the memories." - Mm. - That's cool. - It's been something that I've been focusing on like I haven't done that much traveling, to be honest. - Yeah. - But I've always wanted to. I know we had a Europe trip booked a while back, but COVID fucked. that out. But I'm barley this year, like I went to barley and go to New Zealand soon as well. And I have in the next couple of years, but I like in this little bit of a next phase of my life. I want to travel around a little bit. And before I reach the next phase of my life, you know. And I feel like it's so easy to get stuck into going out every weekend in your home town and spending all your money and doing what you do. But you can save that for a month and you can go away. You can fly up the Queensland. You can fly to the Goldie or something like that for like 400 bucks return. Yeah. They're actually got three troops at the end, say at the moment. True. To try and get people to go there. Where you go, check out Luru. Fuck yeah. How do you get on? I'm also at your app. Yeah. Yeah. I'm flying to New Zealand to, well, not Wellington. One of the things. It's only 600 bucks per return. True. From Sydney. I'll fly to the end. I want to go to Luru. Yeah. You can get up to 750 back on your airfare when you book the eligible holiday package featuring at least two nights day and local tours. I think you've got to fly in the LS Springs, but then do a bus. Yeah. I think. Or no, I think they're doing an airport there. I'd do that. We're going to do it when I was living there, but we never did. Should we send the party up there? I definitely do that. It's. But three nights. Twin share. 1539, but you get 750 back on British all. That's 258 or 375 8. No, because that's one person. And that is take your all the rule holiday to the next level with our package, including our most adventurous activities. Plus, there's a remote community right next to it too. What have to fucking send today? Does it lights? Yeah, that's mad. Is that on there? Three nights. £909 each. That's a combination of everything. Yeah. That could be on, but we could be on there. We could be. We could be all the all the rules on rise. That'd be mad. And feel a lot to be sick. That's only 989 each, but I think you get some 50 back. Yeah, well, let's fucking touch it out. Yeah. We're going to the anti-bullet. We've just decided. Option one, how outback hotel three nights, stay in all the room at the air's rock result. That one's going to pull like desert garden three nights day at the air's rock result in a standard room or a superior room.
