Avneesha:

Already canceled. Already

Yaz:

Just double checking. Does anyone out of Australia use the word wrought? I don't think so. It's not an Aussie word, isn't it? Raught.

Avneesha:

I have no idea.

Yaz:

Oh, you guys aren't interested in that. I'm sorry. Just came to my mind. Don't get too disappointed, guys. I've never heard

Kian:

of it. What would you call it out? What's another synonym for Scam. Scam. Yeah.

Yaz:

But no one else says that.

Kian:

I feel like it's a very

Yaz:

I haven't heard that since, like, the early 2000.

Kian:

I don't know what He rorted me.

Yaz:

Like, I haven't

Kian:

heard that since Yeah. It's a scam. That's right.

Avneesha:

Yeah. Okay.

Kian:

This one's never even hurt in her life.

Avneesha:

No. I have, but I never really use it.

Yaz:

Yeah. Wrought. You know what? I don't use hammers. You haven't used a hammer before?

Kian:

Yeah. Yes.

Yaz:

I've never used that.

Kian:

So you were you were a tradie

Yaz:

for a day? Dude, so yesterday, my mate calls me up, and he's like, my my, workers aren't showing up to work. Can you come help me? He's not he's not in today.

Kian:

Yeah.

Yaz:

And I'm like, yeah, bro. Sure. Like, what we have to do is, like, I've got to remove a whole kitchen and then dump everything in the in the truck and, like, the tiles and use the jackhammer. And I'm like, yeah, bro. I got you.

Yaz:

I'll come help out. So I woke up at 5:30 in the morning, got to his house at 6, jumped in the big ass truck, had my Hivis on and all that stuff.

Kian:

Did it feel? Did you get did you did you have, like, work boots as well?

Yaz:

I was meant to. I was meant to have work boots, unfortunately.

Avneesha:

Don't you need some sort of, like, insurance and stuff and things? I think

Yaz:

the job site would have that. I think the job site would have that.

Kian:

Okay. The business will have that.

Avneesha:

You don't

Yaz:

you don't need to be qualified to be a laborer.

Avneesha:

You don't?

Yaz:

Not to be a laborer. No. You just need to have, like, your white hat or, white

Kian:

white card, I think.

Yaz:

White card, which I have white hat. What's wrong with me?

Avneesha:

What's a white card?

Yaz:

I've got a white card.

Avneesha:

What is that?

Yaz:

It's, it's like a license to be able to work on construction sites kind

Avneesha:

of thing.

Yaz:

Oh, okay. It's like you're accredited. Like, you you understand health and safety and all that

Avneesha:

Rawr.

Yaz:

Bullshit that comes with it. Yeah.

Avneesha:

How do you have that, though?

Kian:

I can easily get it. Yeah. Easy to get.

Yaz:

You're not

Kian:

gonna register for it.

Yaz:

I used to be a, cableer.

Avneesha:

Oh, so coming in. And oh, so it's still valid?

Yaz:

I I think you're meant to,

Kian:

Renew it.

Yaz:

Renew it. I think I did.

Kian:

I think you did too.

Yaz:

Yes. I renewed it. Yes. I definitely did that. But I learned something yesterday.

Yaz:

Yeah. I am not build. I'm not build. I can't even say the word. I'm not built for the, trade life.

Avneesha:

What do you mean? It's different.

Yaz:

I can't be a tradesperson. I can't be a tradie. It's imposs like, I am I'm so surprised because I looked at my mate, and this is probably an hour into the job. He's got all this energy in the world going back and forth, lifting, like, 17 tiles at once, taking him to the things. He's on the jack up and go like this.

Yaz:

Yeah. Brother, within an hour, I was done. I tapped out. I can't do it.

Kian:

It's hard work.

Yaz:

I'm not built for it. How these people do it? Yeah. Yeah. Every single day, 5, 6 days a week for their entire life proves to me that life is a simulation.

Avneesha:

Okay. I don't think I don't think that's the leap you make, that it's a simulation. You just are not as hard worker.

Kian:

No. I just think that you're not used to it. It's mean, these these a lot of these construction guys, they do start when they're

Avneesha:

young

Kian:

Yeah. And they enjoy it because it's just, like, get the job done, get out. Like, that's how they that's the mentality.

Avneesha:

People work with their, like, hands and they work with their, like, the the yeah. They're just built for it. They're cut out for it. There's just certain things you're just not built for. That's that's fine.

Yaz:

But I get that. I understand it. But when I see someone lift up like a a a piece of plywood, that probably weighs a 100 kilos, and they just put it on their shoulder, and they just walk like a

Kian:

Even if it weighs 20 kilos, a huge piece of timber is hard to carry because of the length.

Yaz:

But they do this all by themselves.

Avneesha:

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You get used to it. You build certain muscles for it to be able to Do

Kian:

you remember?

Yaz:

I watched these 2 poor Mongolian men, alright, digging a hole. I don't know if it was a swimming pool. I don't know what it was at this construction site that they were digging, but they were digging for about 8 hours straight in the sun. No stopping.

Kian:

Mhmm. Yeah. Were they wearing a hat? Yeah. Because he's actually I like, I was walking I went to Woolies last night, and I on the way out, I saw a tradie.

Kian:

He's, like, trades on whatever. Yeah. Probably a brickie. Maybe he's a bricklayer.

Yaz:

Yeah.

Kian:

Like, white guy completely tanned. And it just made me think, these guys spend all day in the sun.

Avneesha:

Yeah. They

Kian:

do. Like, all day. And I started thinking, oh, I hope he put sunscreen on or or something to help him because this guy was, like, full tan. But you know you can tell that they're white that's gone full tan?

Yaz:

Yeah. Yeah. Because it doesn't look natural.

Kian:

It's just natural. Natural. It doesn't look like Man, this guy's, like, darker than me almost.

Avneesha:

Yeah. He probably does wear sunscreen. But you know what? It's so funny, like, to me, just imagining Yaz trying to, like, after the first hour, just him thinking how am I gonna get through the rest of the, like, the rest of the day.

Yaz:

Don't get me wrong. I sucked it up.

Avneesha:

Yes. You kept working.

Yaz:

I injured myself. I'm a 100%. Like, I can feel it today.

Avneesha:

But you know what? Your the fact that your head goes straight to, like, oh, it's a simulation is so funny because this is what I I imagine Yaz looking at everyone being like, I'm the main character.

Kian:

I think everything that's hard for Yaz is simulation. Like, whenever something's like, oh, no. That's a simulation. I'm not doing that. Is that the is that the vibe?

Kian:

It's just

Yaz:

when like, when something isn't humanly possible. Like, I did it yesterday for one day, but asked me to do it for my entire life, and I'll tell you to get fucked.

Avneesha:

I feel like this is you the first thing you went to the gym as well. Like, everyone here No.

Yaz:

No. No. The gym the gym is so so different to being a trainer or, like, being a laborer. Like, this this meant bro, they were skinny blokes that were doing this. Like, they weren't like these buff monstrous gym junkies

Avneesha:

No. But it's

Yaz:

that were lifting these piles above their head.

Kian:

It's called strength.

Avneesha:

It's literally it's strength. Yeah. That's it's so true. It's like, what's his name? Why have I gone completely blank?

Avneesha:

The kung fu master, Bruce Lee. Mhmm. He, if you looked at him, he could, like you see some of his best, like, fighting scenes or, like Yeah.

Yaz:

Yeah.

Avneesha:

Scene, and and he punches someone, and he can he fully, like, impacts them, and he's, like, so thin.

Kian:

Yeah. But are you watching are you trying to say are you trying to get evidence from a movie?

Avneesha:

No. No. No.

Kian:

But Because that's a movie.

Avneesha:

No. But Bruce Lee is an actual fighter.

Kian:

Yeah. I know that. But a lot of the stuff you see was in the movies. No.

Avneesha:

But, like If

Yaz:

Nisha is seeing someone get punched with a string behind him and they pull him, like, in that 20 meters.

Avneesha:

He's known. He's known for, like, his mastery in art, and, like, there are clips of him, and I'm pretty sure they're not movie clips of him No.

Yaz:

He's got he's got a lot of power. Like He's got a

Avneesha:

lot of power. Power. And it I remember looking at that and being like, he is so, like, compared to his components, so small

Yaz:

Yeah.

Avneesha:

But he has so much strength.

Kian:

Well, look at an ant. An ant can carry 3 times its own body weight.

Avneesha:

Well, there you go.

Yaz:

Well, I'm no ant. I'm no ant. I'm no tradie. Give me an air con studio like this, and let me talk

Kian:

for you. Yeah. How do you feel coming into work today? Knowing that that's what you had to do.

Yaz:

Yeah. No. No. No. Honestly It's true.

Yaz:

Blessed.

Avneesha:

Yeah.

Yaz:

Like, don't get me wrong. A lot of these, like, laborers, like, these these Mongolian blokes that I was talking to. Right? Mhmm. They're obviously coming from a country where what they're getting paid now in a month is what they would get in an entire year.

Yaz:

Yeah. They're more than happy to dig holes.

Avneesha:

Keep working.

Yaz:

Yeah. Do you know what I mean? Like, to them, it's like they've hit the lotto. Yeah. For me, complete opposite.

Avneesha:

But you realize you're but you you honestly, you realize you're cut out for certain things. Like, I remember when I got my first job in hospitality, I learned real quick smart that I am not cut out to to do, like, work in a food area. Like Is

Kian:

it because you can't cook?

Avneesha:

No. I wasn't I was just waiting tables, but I was just so bad at that service. Like, I still recall, like

Kian:

because you'd be trying to fill the fill the awkward gaps between between between someone trying to order.

Avneesha:

It's like, what do I feel

Kian:

like Anisha just talks about? No.

Avneesha:

I was really nervous. I was just really, really nervous. Like, I'm like, what what would you like? And then writing it down, that whole process seems so complex to me

Yaz:

Yeah.

Avneesha:

That I would go do bathroom breaks, and I would just stay in the bathroom for, like, half an hour at a time because

Yaz:

I was like waiting tables is, like, this most simplest job you could do. Yeah.

Avneesha:

Because I don't know. People who are hungry are just very mean. Just like Mhmm. I didn't have a good time. And I only lasted in that job for like 4 weeks, and then my mom would call up and she'd be like, oh, Evinisha can't come in.

Avneesha:

Like, for my VR. How old

Yaz:

how old were you? No. I'm actually how old are you?

Avneesha:

I think I probably was like 14, 15.

Yaz:

Oh, okay. You're a child.

Avneesha:

But then I got another food job.

Yaz:

I saw adult of nature doing this.

Avneesha:

No. I'm much better. Thank you very much. But I I remember getting a food job as well, and, oh, guys. This I still relive this moment, but I was, like, I was terrible at the job.

Yaz:

What's a food job?

Avneesha:

Oh, so I was, like, making shakes and smoothies behind, like, it's like a little food shop. Yeah. Yeah. And anyway, I would go there, and I hated the job, but I, you know, I wanted the money. I was, like, 50.

Avneesha:

I think it's like my first proper job. And my mom once again would always, like, I would always ask her to call in when I was feeling unwell to the point where I walked in one day and the guy, the owner, like, fired me. Like, I got I walked in, and he was like, my mom just dropped me there. I went in and he was like, look, I don't think this is working out. And I said, please, like, I've

Kian:

I was like You begged for your job. And he

Avneesha:

goes, you know what? Today, you can work. And I was like, okay. Thank you. And then I was like, oh, but I I left my uniform at home.

Yaz:

Oh my

Avneesha:

god. You're

Yaz:

the worst.

Kian:

I think I think there was a reason why it didn't work out, Nisha.

Avneesha:

And then he literally went, no. I think you should just leave.

Kian:

And I said, okay.

Avneesha:

And then I called my mom. I was like, mom, can you pick me up? And I think she knew, but she didn't say anything. And it was like the most quiet, like, road

Yaz:

Drive mom.

Kian:

Strove I was so

Avneesha:

glad to hear that.

Yaz:

Who would fire an issue?

Kian:

Oh, she didn't rock out with a uniform. Her mom was calling her in. Like, it's not a reliable employee, is it? True.

Yaz:

How old were you here?

Avneesha:

I was I was, like, 15. I remember being 15. Yeah. And then and that was the last job that I ever did. Oh, there's been

Kian:

there's been more. There's been more?

Avneesha:

No. There was okay. So this this is what happened. Right? I didn't then I realized I wasn't

Yaz:

cut out for

Avneesha:

the Hospitality world. Well, hospitality, but then also events. So I worked as I worked as events.

Yaz:

This is this is gonna be Avanisha's biography.

Kian:

Yeah. Yeah.

Avneesha:

Well When

Yaz:

she writes her biography, it's gonna be that you stole it.

Avneesha:

I I I was so good at the interview process, the flying colors, and then I got the job, and I realized it was late nights because we set up for events, and then

Kian:

we Yeah.

Avneesha:

We had to pack down. And pack down would take up, like, 4 in the morning, 3 to 4 in the morning. We're still packing down. It was, like, at the parliament house and things like that, like big events in Canberra. And so by my 3rd job, I realized that the only way they can get to me is if they call me, but if I never pick up my phone, I don't have to do the job anymore.

Avneesha:

And so

Kian:

after, like uncalled job is that uncalled job? Uncalled jobs are the worst.

Avneesha:

Because I just never answered my phone, and then I still don't they never actually tickle the fire.

Yaz:

You're still hired.

Avneesha:

It's typically still

Yaz:

They're still trying to call to this day.

Avneesha:

I'm so sorry.

Kian:

This is not Avnesia. Hello?

Avneesha:

No. But you never heard that was the last job I did bad of these.

Yaz:

Oh, well,

Kian:

I have one experience of a job that I just was like, no. This is not me. Yeah. And it was a door knocker. I have heard so

Avneesha:

many people. Knocker.

Kian:

Oh, the worst. The worst job. Do you

Yaz:

even get do you get paid an hourly, like, no.

Kian:

You get paid on commission. Just commission. That's gotta be legal.

Avneesha:

That's illegal. That's that's alright.

Kian:

But if you get your commission, it's good. Knocking on doors, going to different areas. They took us they took us up to Port Macquarie and, which is about a 2 hour drive from Sydney. Mhmm. And, I was like, oh, yes.

Kian:

So what hotel are we staying in? And they all laughed. And they said, no. It's a it's a, hostel.

Yaz:

You're staying at a hostel?

Kian:

We stayed at a hostel. I didn't pack anything for a hostel. Never stayed at a hostel before. Do I look like a backpacker? Everyone's a backpacker in this job.

Kian:

I didn't realize.

Yaz:

Not only are they not paying you, but they're putting you up in a shared room with probably, like, 4 people.

Kian:

They made me a sandwich, a cheese and butter sandwich for lunch. That's what I had for lunch. And they

Yaz:

gave me a poncho. Oh, that's good.

Kian:

A chi a cheese and butter sandwich and a muesli bar.

Avneesha:

Why did they give you a poncho?

Kian:

Just in case it rained, and I had to go knock on doors. I knocked on I I was there for 3 days. I thought I can't do this. What were you selling? What?

Kian:

Selling? Surf Life Saving. Like, it was a good cause, like, a membership to Surf Life Saving. So, it's like, you know, the the lifeguards and stuff? Yeah.

Kian:

Well, Surf Life Saving Australia, you donate you can do your monthly donations.

Yaz:

Oh, that's all it is?

Kian:

And so we signed people up for it. Right? And I had to work for the pitch. 3 days in, I was like, I can't do this. So I, I I I told them that my auntie had a heart attack.

Yaz:

What? Understandable. No. I've done that before.

Kian:

And then I got in the plane and flew home and never spoke to them again. Why would

Yaz:

you get on a plane? It's 2 hours away.

Kian:

Well, how was it? I didn't have I have to rent a car or what? How how would I just go jump on a plane and flew home? I asked my parents to book me a flight.

Yaz:

Oh, that's fair.

Kian:

Because I was like, this is ridiculous. I can't do it.

Avneesha:

Did you sell anything in that 3 days?

Kian:

I mean, like, $300, $400. It was a pretty good it was pretty good. I had I had a good knock. I had a good knock.

Avneesha:

What was your what was your, like, opening line? Oh, it

Kian:

was the old oh, I don't even remember the opening line, but I remember I had to go, like, everyone in the we've seen everyone in the area today. You know, it was all it was a full pitch written out for me.

Yaz:

Oh, god. That's the And the

Kian:

door just closes on you.

Yaz:

No. Because, you know, the last place you wanna get, like, tried to sold something is at your own house. Yeah.

Avneesha:

Yeah. It's so true.

Yaz:

So I have a bit of respect. Yeah. And

Kian:

to this day, there's still people knocking at doors

Avneesha:

every Wednesday.

Kian:

I've never had

Avneesha:

I've never had someone come to my door. Never? Only just recently, but it was very different. It was for a kid who's, like, the father came to the door because it he was selling chocolates for his son.

Kian:

Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah.

Avneesha:

That's different.

Yaz:

Jehovah's Witness ever?

Kian:

No. Yeah. I get that. I get, like, donation things as well, cancer council and stuff like that. And when it comes up to, like, your, like, your heart, you can't just slam the door because you know it's an important cause, especially when they say, yeah.

Kian:

Like, my granddad's going through it and stuff. You're like, hurry up. Like, what do I do?

Yaz:

Yeah. They're lying to you, though.

Kian:

Then I'll say, I'll just look on the website, and I'll go through the website.

Yaz:

They are lying to you. When they try to sell you something for,

Kian:

like Yeah.

Yaz:

You know, whatever it is, whatever donation, and they'll they'll they'll start making up stories in just to sell you that pitch. Like, when they come and tell you, oh, you know, my uncle's suffering from this or my grandfather is at all or I, you know, I lost my father. I'm telling you now, 9% of the time, they're lying.

Avneesha:

Dude, true.

Yaz:

Trying to pull your hunch. Dude, they're doing it for money. Yeah.

Avneesha:

It's a But it's not their money.

Yaz:

They're doing it for commission.

Avneesha:

Yeah. That's true. Commission.

Yaz:

No alleyway. So anything they can do to pull on those heartstrings of yours and pull money out of your pocket, they'll do it. Yeah.

Kian:

So would you ever do another day of a trade, Yaz? If your mate needed help again, you gotta help him.

Yaz:

He's your mate. Only only because he needs help, and he's actually set up. I've got, like, some more work coming up if you wanna do it.

Kian:

But I'm I'm not built for

Avneesha:

it, but

Yaz:

I I did get, like, a weird sense of satisfaction.

Avneesha:

It would be I was about to say, you'd feel accomplished there. Right? Because I

Yaz:

Accomplished and filthy. That's the other thing too, guys.

Avneesha:

Yeah. Okay.

Yaz:

The I could not wait to get home and just jump in the shower. I fell

Kian:

Did you sleep

Yaz:

well? 30. I slept amazing. See?

Kian:

See? That's a that's a that's a I woke up.

Yaz:

I woke up this morning, and I was like, that was the best sleep of my life. It was that good, by the way. Yeah. I wasn't even under the covers. Oh, really?

Yaz:

Wasn't even under the covers. So I'm in my undies on top of the car. You I can't do that. There's no way I can sleep like that, but I did.

Avneesha:

You just knocked out.

Yaz:

I just conked out.

Avneesha:

Yeah. That's what happens when it's a hard day's work. Your body just there's nothing you can do.

Yaz:

I can't believe I can't believe that that's actually what work is.

Kian:

Yeah. Well well, there's lots of type of work. I'm doing a different type of job now. Speaking of a hard day's work, I'm a house husband. I've become a house hub husband after working 10 years at companies and radio and all this content stuff.

Kian:

And then since we started this podcast, I've had a lot more time on it on my hands, and my wife is doing a lot more, of the 9 to 5, and I'm doing of the house house chores and all that stuff.

Avneesha:

So you were it?

Kian:

I enjoyed the time with the kids.

Avneesha:

Yeah.

Kian:

Because I didn't have that their whole life until now.

Yaz:

Mhmm.

Kian:

Like, never we never was able to take them to school. I was always able to pick them up, but sometimes even that was hard because I was just doing 2 jobs. Yeah. Yeah. Radio label and then all the way there.

Kian:

But now it's like everyday kids. And I've got them into a good routine now, but I have to get myself into 1 first. But it's it's yeah. I'm a I'm a house husband. That's easy.

Kian:

I do washing. I do 3 loads of washing on a Wednesday.

Avneesha:

Oh, Wednesday's your washing day?

Kian:

It's my washing day. Vacuum, mop, clean it clean the kids' room, prepare dinner, cook a mean curry. No.

Yaz:

Yeah. No. It's not for me. It's it's it

Kian:

is actually hard because you start you start to be like, this house like like not like of Nisha's house being a prison, but it kind of feels like this house is I'm stuck in the house all day. I wanna get out and do stuff. Like, I'd go for random drives with Lorraine when she gets home. Like, let's go for a drive and you get out of the house. So we're just like, where are we gonna go?

Kian:

I'm, like, oh, no.

Yaz:

Let's just go look at this.

Kian:

Like, I don't know. Let's just go drive here. So we go and drive to, like, a random suburb we've never been to before. Like, last night, we went to this, a different a random suburb.

Yaz:

What are you talking about? What are you what are you just talking about? Wait. Just yeah. Because I'm actually really confused on how we even got to what you're talking about now.

Kian:

Me being a husband. House husband. The day like, a day in like, the work how work has changed, how things have changed.

Avneesha:

Well, because Lorraine has been paying 9.

Kian:

And I'm doing the days as a house husband.

Avneesha:

Yeah. Because he obviously, with the podcast and everything, he has a lot more hours free. And because Lorraine's doing the traditional 9 to 5, he's now at home doing a lot of No.

Yaz:

I get that. How do we get into the car and driving to the Well,

Kian:

it's like, I'm stuck in the house all day. I wanna get out of the house.

Yaz:

You wanna get okay. Gotcha.

Kian:

So then I wanna get out of the house. Lorraine gets home. The kids get home. I'm like, I wanna get out of the house. I wanna spend time, but I don't want us to do it in the house with the kids, so let's get in the car.

Kian:

Let's go for a drive.

Yaz:

Get out.

Kian:

Yeah. So we go for drives. And then I and then, like, where are we gonna go?

Yaz:

Driving. I thought you you

Kian:

oh, okay.

Yaz:

So you still got that response?

Kian:

Yeah. That's fine. Like, I I wanna drive because I've been sitting down. You know? So I've been just whatever all day.

Kian:

But do

Yaz:

we go for drives when

Kian:

we drive? Like, last time, we went to a random a random, suburb, like, 10 minutes away, and we started driving all the streets and looking at the houses and seeing with and then founding like, I found, like, I found 3 hectic parks, like, mad parks. I found a supermarket, like a full online store.

Avneesha:

There's an original And you say my house is a prison, and this is my life.

Kian:

No. But this is a tradition, like a, like real community, like not even an IGA, it's like a foreign, like, small business supermarket. I'm like, I wanna shop there instead of Woolworths and Coles.

Avneesha:

You need an intervention. This is not normal.

Kian:

No. This is no. How is this

Yaz:

is this I don't I'm trying to think of something to say to you, but I've got nothing.

Kian:

What? This is bad? This it's bad?

Yaz:

It's no. It's just different.

Kian:

I found a house yesterday that was I've never seen a bigger house in my life. Like, I've never seen a bigger house in my entire life. This thing was four levels and was like, I thought it was like a hospital. It's a freaking house.

Avneesha:

Okay.

Kian:

Ugly as hell, but bigger than I'm bigger than I've ever seen in my life. And I'm like, what is that? So we tried to get to the house, and the only way in was the driveway. And I thought, oh, should we drive up the driveway?

Yaz:

You're taking the kids with you?

Kian:

Yeah. The kids are in the back.

Yaz:

Oh, poor children.

Kian:

I pulled over to the side and asked and asked the people on the street who whose house is that? They said no one's lived in it for years.

Yaz:

Wait. There was people We're getting someone.

Kian:

People walking on people walking the dog, and and Lorraine's like, no. Don't. Don't. Don't. Like, I haven't got a bra on.

Yaz:

What is this conversation then?

Kian:

So we so I'm like, oh, no. But I really wanna know what the house is.

Avneesha:

Okay. So hold on. Let's just let's just let's put pause in the house, in this this abandoned house. So Lorraine enjoys this, going to different suburbs and and and looking at supermarkets and and big houses?

Kian:

We're not looking at supermarkets. It's just like it's a it's like a exploration.

Avneesha:

Right?

Kian:

It's an exploration. We're natural explorers as human beings within our means at these days.

Avneesha:

Did you

Yaz:

just have a goal in mind? Like, hey, we'll get ice cream, or, hey. We'll do this No. We had to go

Kian:

get we had to go get nappies. So I went we went and got nappies first, and I'm like, oh, I don't wanna go home. I was like, oh, we'll just go home. Like, no. I wanna go for a drive.

Kian:

So we drive, and we found this suburb and we went around the circles and

Yaz:

Just drove.

Kian:

Oh, this is a high residential section of the suburb.

Yaz:

What suburb was

Kian:

it? Curran's Hill.

Yaz:

Never heard of it.

Kian:

It's in it's in McArthur region. McArthur.

Yaz:

So we should go for a drive, me and you.

Kian:

You should let me drive. Oh, no. No. Oh, okay. Well, it's up to you, guy.

Kian:

I'm an I'm an expert at driving around suburbs, by

Avneesha:

the way. Can Keane should be the tour guide because he's the

Kian:

Well, it's the bird. Yeah.

Yaz:

Because you

Kian:

gotta you gotta spit you gotta you gotta pick the right streets. Because if you go down the right street, no 3 road, far out. Gotta do a u-turn. You wanna make sure you pick the right street so you end up doing a perfect wrap around and back out.

Yaz:

I don't wanna hang out with you on the weekends.

Avneesha:

Well You

Kian:

never do anyway. So Yeah.

Yaz:

It's not for that exact reason. Hey, bro. What are you doing tonight?

Avneesha:

No. Just drove in around the neighborhood. And Paula, right?

Kian:

Why wouldn't you do that if we were gonna hang out?

Avneesha:

9 to 5. She must be exhausted, and now she has to go through all the suburbs and Yeah. But she

Kian:

enjoys it too. I'm sure. People enjoy that. Have you never got in the car and gone for a drive and gone, oh, shit. That's where that is?

Yaz:

I have gone for a doctor. Don't say it would clear my mind or something.

Kian:

Yeah. That's what it sort of is like. It's sort of like that.

Yaz:

But one that's by myself, so I can have, like, my thoughts go through and stuff. But I'm not going to sight see suburbs.

Avneesha:

Yeah. That's

Kian:

weird. Sight see. That's not what it is.

Yaz:

That's sweet. Oh my god. Look at that. It's not even a Woolworths. It's not even an IGA.

Yaz:

I wanna shop there.

Kian:

Why? Oh, well, you know, you discover what's around you. Did you get surprised? Like, that's only 10 minutes away? Or you find a park, oh, god.

Kian:

The kids would love playing at that park. Let's go there. It's a bit of different. Hey. Is it bad

Yaz:

is it bad going back to you being a house husband? Is it bad that I will, like, will I just will not do the washing? Like, something like the washing. I just wanna do it. Why?

Kian:

I just don't wanna do it every time.

Avneesha:

Live by yourself, you're gonna have the deodorant.

Yaz:

I'm talking about when I have a missus, and when I have a wife, and when I have a family. You should

Avneesha:

both do the washing. No.

Yaz:

I'm not doing the washing.

Avneesha:

Okay. So hold on. What do you think is, like, aren't you gonna split things 5050?

Yaz:

No. I will Well, you can you can hold on. You can split my money 5050.

Kian:

Will she

Yaz:

And I'll wash off.

Kian:

Will she But hold on.

Yaz:

She won't be making money.

Kian:

Okay. They're the difference Wait. Wait.

Yaz:

Wait. Hold on. Wait. Wait. Wait.

Yaz:

Wait. Wait.

Avneesha:

Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Okay.

Avneesha:

Hold on. You just wanna pause there. What do you mean she won't be making money?

Yaz:

Like, unless she's, like, the CEO of a major company, she's making a $1,000,000

Avneesha:

If she

Yaz:

if she wants to work,

Avneesha:

when if she wants to work? That's what she wants to do.

Yaz:

Let me ask you a question.

Kian:

Let me ask you a question. Do you want your partner, your wife, to work?

Yaz:

Yeah. If we need the money.

Kian:

Okay. But we won't. Now if she okay. Alright. Then let's hypothetically say you need the money.

Kian:

You guys both are working. Alright? You both need

Yaz:

to contribute. Hypothetical. Huge hypothetical.

Kian:

If that's the case

Yaz:

Yeah.

Kian:

Who then does the washing?

Yaz:

She still does the washing.

Kian:

Okay. What do you do around the house?

Yaz:

I'll make sure that the house That

Kian:

she does the washing.

Yaz:

I will overrule fall. I will

Avneesha:

overrule all the projects in

Yaz:

the house.

Kian:

I'll supervise

Yaz:

I'll supervise the washing, the cooking, the cleaning.

Avneesha:

You're lying.

Yaz:

I'll be like those 0H and S officers that walk in. I'll have a clipboard, and

Avneesha:

I'll be like I'll go,

Yaz:

a bit of dust on this.

Kian:

Where's your white card?

Avneesha:

Yeah. He's like, it's been renewed. Don't worry. Boy, no. I told

Yaz:

you, I'm not made for trades. That's considered a trade.

Kian:

Okay. Now, but hold on for a second. Now you like, I know why this is probably the case because your mom's already done a lot for you housewives.

Yaz:

And I just love a traditional household.

Kian:

Yeah. Okay. But a traditional household a traditional household means that then a traditional means that the woman, the wife, usually doesn't work. Right? That's traditional.

Kian:

Correct. And you do work. Correct. And you work your your ass off Correct. As hard as you can to provide.

Kian:

Right? And if that's the household and your partner's happy for that

Yaz:

Yeah.

Kian:

And you guys have an agreement, what's the problem? Yeah.

Avneesha:

If she's happy with it I mean, but what I'm saying is, like, if you meet someone who likes to work and that that they get satisfaction and and it's, you know, a sense of empowerment Yeah. Then you can't take that away from someone.

Yaz:

No. I won't. I'll give them an option.

Kian:

You're a you know what? Here's why I don't hang out with you outside of work because you're an asshole.

Yaz:

Why? What do

Kian:

you mean you'll give him 2 options?

Yaz:

I'll just what what do you mean? Am I am I not allowed to have a say in my own relationship?

Kian:

Of course you can have a say.

Yaz:

I'm not allowed to have

Avneesha:

a say.

Kian:

I'm not someone that's it sound it's not it's sounding as if you're oppressing

Yaz:

No. Her choice.

Kian:

It is. It sounds so much like that.

Yaz:

This is what's wrong with the world today. The fact that you think by me saying I'll give them a choice, right, that that's oppressing someone. No. It's not. You don't like it?

Yaz:

Be gone. I'll find someone that agrees with me. Yeah.

Avneesha:

Okay. What's the choice? Simple. What's the choice?

Kian:

Jeez. Here's the choice. Options.

Yaz:

You wanna work and provide, then I will stay at home and do everything, but I will not work. If you wanna work your ass off and you wanna make the money for the family, then I will do the house jobs. I will. But but that is my full time job.

Kian:

Hold on. You just contradicted yourself. You said you would never do washing, and then now you're saying you'll

Yaz:

do Why will I never do washing? Because I'm out working my ass off for 12 hours a day trying to provide and protect for my family.

Kian:

Yes. Okay. But then what if she wants to work? Then I will stay

Yaz:

at home, and you can be the provider.

Avneesha:

Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?

Kian:

In this in this day and age, it's it's more than likely that both partners need to work.

Yaz:

That's because

Kian:

They're not making millions?

Yaz:

I'm gonna be in

Avneesha:

the I'm gonna

Yaz:

be the top 0.1 percent of the population making 1,000,000 of dollars.

Avneesha:

Let's just say

Kian:

let's just say

Avneesha:

you're not making millions. I'm sure that's not gonna happen. I'm sure your manifestation will come through and you'll be, you know, a billionaire. Right?

Kian:

It's all about manifesting. Okay.

Yaz:

It's already happened.

Avneesha:

Okay. It's already happened. It's already happened. However It's

Kian:

literally what manifesting is.

Avneesha:

However, let's just say that's not the case, and you you, you know, you're on a decent wage and you meet someone who is also on a decent wage Uh-huh. Then will you still have that option, or would it be like, we can both do 5050?

Yaz:

She can work. She can work if she wants to,

Kian:

but I'm

Yaz:

just saying why. Like, what's the point?

Kian:

Because you need the money.

Yaz:

That's why.

Avneesha:

But not in that. People really enjoy their work that they do. Some people feel very passionate about

Kian:

their work.

Yaz:

That's fine. If you can juggle the washing in a full time job, by all means, boo boo.

Avneesha:

Go do go make your money.

Kian:

That you'll, like, cook something.

Yaz:

I'm sure they cooking. I enjoy cooking. So you when you get

Kian:

when you get to that stage, you guys will find what you like and what you don't like, and then you work together through what it is.

Yaz:

A 100%. I'll cook I'll cook everything, and then I'll say, oh, look. I've cooked does the pots and pans need washing, babe, and I'll throw them at her.

Kian:

But damn throw them at her.

Avneesha:

Yes. But

Kian:

damn the day that she says, you know what? I'm I'm so exhausted from work today. Can you please do the can you do the washing?

Yaz:

No. I'll say, this is what's gonna happen.

Avneesha:

You are terrible. You

Yaz:

are terrible.

Kian:

He's feeding into

Yaz:

No. No. No. I'm not. I'm not.

Yaz:

Feeding. He's I will say is he's I'll say, my queen, fulfill your role, and I promise to give you a full body massage straight after.

Avneesha:

Fill your role. That's so Oh god.

Kian:

He's doing this on purpose.

Yaz:

Oh god. No. Look. Like I said, I'd prefer a traditional household. I'll I'm I would happily go shovel shit for 12 hours for a couple $100 a day to provide for my family as long as I come home to relax and have everything done.

Yaz:

And you know what I mean?

Kian:

Yaz carries around the 19 fifties home economics book in his backpack. No. But you know what? In all honesty, I think everyone every like, a lot of people do prefer to like, especially for a man, it is true. Like, you do have this thing where you wanna provide for your your wife, right, and your girlfriend, wife, and children.

Yaz:

Yeah.

Kian:

You would be the one that would you never have to work again if you don't want to.

Yaz:

If you don't want to.

Kian:

Like, I don't want to. To work again. You never have to go out and and and struggle at work and deal with people and assholes and all that stuff and, you know, put up with all that stress. You never have to do that again because I wanna be the one that carries that load. Yeah.

Kian:

So everyone's around us is happy. That's that's that's deeply rooted in the in the guy. And I know it's different this day and age, but it is true. It's there, and I understand where you're coming from on that front. Yeah.

Kian:

It's just when it's the other way around, you go to pitch in. And that's where I'm at this stage. And especially when you have kids, you wanna pitch in. Like, it's like, you wanna make sure the kid's washing is taken care of. You will automatically do it.

Kian:

Every time someone before they have kids, they think this way, but then they have it and then everything's changed. A lot of things have changed. And I see it with, like, people close to me. People really close to me that have, like, really, like, deep rooted traditions from their their heritages change purely because holy shit. Like, this is a big culture shock to our whole life.

Kian:

Mhmm. Like, if I don't chip in, I'll see the destruction of my my household. So, like, you can see that happening.

Yaz:

Yeah. It's pretty wild. Like, if I was to actually if I was to actually go find a wife, let's say, go back to the homeland of Jordan, and I find myself a wife. The funny thing is I almost can guarantee I will not do a house short for the rest of my life.

Kian:

That's alright.

Yaz:

That's true. Because they are raised that way. Like, that's all they know. They will cook. They will clean.

Yaz:

They will do every single thing that needs to be done in that house and keep it spotless and keep it running so perfectly, and the guy will never lift a finger in that household.

Kian:

And on top of that, they will have a full time job too. Yeah. And this is the thing about a woman. That's how strong they are. Right?

Kian:

They can hold down all that stuff and do that. But then when you get in that relationship and you see her working so much, you're like, oh

Yaz:

You wanna help.

Kian:

I'm I have to help. It's my duty to help because it's part of this day and age. I think that's what it's all about.

Yaz:

Yeah. But if you're like, realistically speaking, if you are shoveling ship 10 hours a day and you come home, Ken, and she says, can you go do the laundry? Can you go do the washing? You'd be like, are you fucking serious?

Kian:

If she's been sitting at home all not sitting at home, but if she's been at home all day working, I don't know. I'd probably balance it out. Doesn't really matter. You just throw clothes in a washing machine.

Yaz:

What if your job is to shovel shit? Let's be honest. 99% of the time, a a woman's career or a woman's job isn't gonna be labor, and it's not gonna be, any heavy lifting or anything disgusting like working in parts or anything like that. Right? It's gonna be an office job.

Yaz:

Yeah. But Not into the time. Am I not wrong here?

Avneesha:

So many guys that are not working in, like, that kind of as a laborer. Like, you're saying, like,

Yaz:

you're speaking

Avneesha:

about a But

Yaz:

I'm specifically speaking about something specific here. I'm not giving it a whole

Avneesha:

Yeah. Yeah. I I think I think You know what

Yaz:

I mean? I'm saying

Avneesha:

I think it's a context. Right? Like, obviously, if there's a guy working in, like, shoveling shit for 10 hours a day, and he's, like, exhausted when he comes home. He, like, physically is so yeah. Then obviously, he needs help as well.

Avneesha:

And and

Kian:

I think every day is different. Every day is different.

Avneesha:

Yeah. And every job is different.

Kian:

Work with each other every day. Yeah.

Avneesha:

It's all about I think a partnership is all about elevating each other. So whatever that means in your relationship, it means what it means.

Kian:

And also what you're good at. Like, I'm I'm I'm I'm I have, like, a knack of putting the girls to sleep. So, like, I usually do that. And then the nights that I went off, I'm like, oh, I just wanna actually sit down, watch a show or whatever. I'll just, like, do work or whatever.

Kian:

Lorraine will go do it too. Yeah. And then she'll send me a text message 10 minutes later.

Avneesha:

It's so much better.

Yaz:

And help.

Kian:

And I'm like, far out. But I'm because I'm because they they go to bed easier with me. Yeah. That's right.

Avneesha:

Yeah. Exactly. I think 5050 is always the best way to look at it, whatever that is. And sometimes it's 70 40. Sometimes it's, you know, it just depends.

Avneesha:

Whatever you need from each other, that's what you provide. That's that's a partnership.

Kian:

So have we changed it yet yet?

Avneesha:

No. It's what I'm like. No laundry for me.

Yaz:

I will not do laundry. I will not laundry. I will not vacuum, and I'll also not mop.

Kian:

Do you think it's because it's like why? Is it because I

Yaz:

just don't like to do those things.

Kian:

Something you don't enjoy doing?

Yaz:

I don't. And I'm gonna do a shit job at it too.

Kian:

So On purpose.

Yaz:

Yeah. Yeah.

Avneesha:

So you do no chores at your house? Like, with the beauty parents.

Yaz:

Can I can I just say something? I actually looked at my mom the other day while she was doing the dishes, and it was like I was, like, working late. So it was, like, 1 AM, and I was like.

Avneesha:

And she was doing dishes at 1 AM?

Yaz:

She was doing dishes at 1 AM. So she had fallen asleep on the couch. She had worked the next day, and then she woke up and I go, mom, I said, just leave everything in the kitchen, go upstairs, and sleep. It's not gonna go anywhere. Right?

Yaz:

Just go get some sleep.

Kian:

Because I'm not gonna do it.

Avneesha:

Do it. I will. I actually thought he was gonna do it. Do it. I do it.

Avneesha:

I actually thought he was gonna do it. Do it.

Kian:

That's not gonna go anywhere. It'll still be here in the morning.

Yaz:

See. See.

Avneesha:

You got a terrible lesson.

Yaz:

You guys you guys you guys right now are judging me, and you didn't even hear the end of the story. That's so slack of you.

Avneesha:

Okay. What is the end of the story?

Yaz:

I cleaned the entire kitchen. She went to bed. I cleaned everything. I I didn't. I'm joking.

Yaz:

Yeah.

Avneesha:

I'm joking. Oh my god.

Yaz:

No.

Avneesha:

It's not gonna go anywhere. I was working.

Kian:

It'll be here until you do it next time. Yeah.

Yaz:

Listen. And then I was like, no. Because, like anyways

Avneesha:

So what did she do? Did she go to bed and just finish it the next day?

Yaz:

No. She did everything. And I

Avneesha:

was looking and

Yaz:

I was watching her, and I was watching it. I'm like, shit, man. I really need to help. But you gotta realize something. The way my mom's brain is in embedded.

Yaz:

If she sees me get up to cook, which by the way, I love to cook

Kian:

She'll jump in.

Yaz:

She's sitting there. She's doing something. She's busy. Whatever she's doing, she's busy. Right?

Yaz:

If she sees me get up, go to the fridge, and open the fridge, she will get out of whatever she's doing to go try cook me something. And I'm like, mom, go sit down. No. No. No.

Yaz:

No. You're hungry. I need a cookie something. That's how she is. That's how that's how she's coded.

Avneesha:

Okay.

Kian:

Yeah. That's very usual for her.

Avneesha:

She's she's she she'll need help.

Yaz:

I will come home from whatever I'm doing, and my bed will be new and done, and new bedsheets, and my room would be vacuuming. Because she just does it. It's not like I'm saying, mom, mom, my room's dirty. Why is it dirty? I'm not doing that.

Yaz:

I'm just saying this is how my mom is.

Avneesha:

Yeah. Of course. But at some point, like, you she's gonna need help.

Kian:

Do you think that's do you think that is why you wouldn't do the household stuff around the house? Because your mom does it, and you'd expect that to be from No.

Yaz:

No. No. I just like traditional households. Very simple. It motivates me to succeed in life.

Avneesha:

So it motivates

Yaz:

me to succeed in my job. It motivates me to say, I am the provider. I am the protector. That is my responsibility. That is my job.

Kian:

Mhmm. Speaking of traditional weird things, not weird, but traditionals, the leap year. I wanna get into the leap year

Avneesha:

because I don't trust it. I honestly didn't understand what a leap year is straight up.

Kian:

Every 4 years, an extra day is added into the calendar.

Avneesha:

Yeah. But, like, why?

Kian:

Because and then what they say is it happened in the Roman times, and they for somehow the science also says that there's 365 0.25 days every year. So so they like, for a full Earth rotation around the sun, it's 365.25. Mhmm. So then that 25 gets added up every 4 years to 1. It's about with me.

Yaz:

I think each I think each day I think each day is a couple minutes over 24 hours. So once that gets all added up over 4 years, it creates a whole new day. Yeah. Oh.

Kian:

And that's when they they placed that in. So the 29th.

Yaz:

So a day one day isn't exactly 24 hours. It's 24 hours in, let's say, 7 minutes or something.

Avneesha:

Gotcha. And then they accumulate that and

Yaz:

that over for you.

Avneesha:

Okay. K.

Yaz:

K. K.

Avneesha:

Oh, that makes sense.

Yaz:

But this is

Kian:

the thing about the that that, leap year is I think it's a scam.

Yaz:

It is a scam. It's not the leap year that's a scam. It's the calendar that we run now. The calendar scam.

Kian:

I could just like, you there is there is ways before what we use now as the Gregorian calendar, I think it is. But we use now before. Before that, it was 13 months.

Avneesha:

13 months.

Kian:

Not 12.

Yaz:

Well, the thing is we didn't actually use it, but it was created and was like, okay. Well, this is how mathematically a year

Avneesha:

should be.

Yaz:

Right? It should be 13 months. It was, the 13 month calendar created by August Comte in 18/49. And they were like, this is the actual mathematical calculations of how the year should run. Very, very simple.

Yaz:

There's 365 days in a year. Right? Mhmm. You divide that by 13, it equals 28.

Kian:

And that's a perfect 4 because it's 7 days in a week. Yeah. And 4 times 7 is 28. So it's a perfect mathematically design. Exactly.

Yaz:

So it actually calculates perfectly to 1 year, 13 months, 28 per month. You don't have to do this stupid 30 days in January, 31 in Yeah. 28 in February, then March has 31, and then 30 the next. It's stupid.

Kian:

And and how does it how is it fair when it comes to pay?

Yaz:

It's not. That's the thing. Fair. It's like, for example, we get paid monthly.

Kian:

Yeah.

Yaz:

Right? Mhmm. So we get paid for a month's work. 12 months a year. We're losing out on a month, technically speaking.

Kian:

Because we get That's true.

Yaz:

Unless you calculate because if you you can break it down and calculate it per day, but that's not actually what your salary says. Your salary is saying it's paying you monthly.

Avneesha:

But isn't it a breakdown of the hours you've done?

Yaz:

Well, no. Let me explain

Avneesha:

8 hours. Well, let

Yaz:

me explain something to you. Right? How on earth if you get paid monthly, how on earth are you getting paid $10,000, right, a month Mhmm. Every single month when every single month has an extra day or a day before or a day less. You're missing out on a day's pay.

Yaz:

Am I not wrong here?

Kian:

It would depends if you're on salary or, that's what I'm saying.

Yaz:

You get paid monthly. You get paid monthly. You get paid 10,000 a month. That is your salary. Right?

Yaz:

So come March, it's 30 days. You get paid 10,000. Then you have April. It's 31 days. You still get paid 10,000.

Avneesha:

Right. But

Yaz:

there's an extra month. There's an extra day there. Where's my extra day's pay? Does that make sense?

Kian:

But what throws it off? Yeah. 100%. Yeah. I don't think it I think it makes sense.

Kian:

I think it does make sense. But what throws it all off is, like, we have thirds do we how many star signs are there? Isn't there like 13? 13.

Avneesha:

Yeah. I think so.

Kian:

And then you've got, because I'm looking up here. There's, like, the Hebrew ancient Hebrew calendar occasionally add 13th month to keep the calendar aligned with the solar year and agri agricultural seasons. Seasons a year and 3 months each season. That's 12. That's 12.

Kian:

So what was it but when it was 13? Because it says here that there there was a it was 13 months, and then it's changed to 12.

Yaz:

But you gotta realize when we talk about seasons, it's not like you wake up one day, it's winter, then you wake up the next day, and it's

Avneesha:

Yeah. Like, it's like a star. Difference.

Yaz:

It's not a stark difference. It it fades in and

Avneesha:

out. It does.

Yaz:

You know what I mean? So it's not exactly every scenario.

Kian:

Could the way we the reasoning why the the the term scam comes up is because, technically, we are scammed out of a month of pay.

Yaz:

Pretty much. Yeah. If I don't You are. You're scammed out of a month of pay, illegitimately. How many how many if I ask you, Nishi, how many, weeks are there in a month?

Avneesha:

How many? 4.

Yaz:

Wrong. How can it be 4? How many days in a week?

Avneesha:

Well, on average, but

Yaz:

There's no on average.

Kian:

On average? 7?

Yaz:

There's no on average.

Avneesha:

No. But it's like 4 there's

Kian:

hold on. 7 days in a week. Yeah.

Avneesha:

There's 7 days in a week, but

Yaz:

And then each and each

Kian:

month is 4 weeks and or 4 and a half weeks or

Yaz:

It's 4 and a half weeks.

Kian:

The only month that's actually perfect is February in a non leap year.

Avneesha:

Yeah. That is true.

Yaz:

Yeah. We're getting scammed.

Kian:

I'm telling I'm telling you now Isn't the money isn't the money then that for that extra month added on to add it and then spread out the 12 months? Maybe that could be the case.

Yaz:

I don't know. Look. I'm no math genius here. I've only done the I've only done the basics, and the maths ain't mathing. That's all I'm saying.

Yaz:

It's

Kian:

not math.

Avneesha:

Yeah. I mean, look. It's an interesting concept. I've never heard of the 13 months, like, proposal.

Yaz:

Just makes more sense. It makes so much more sense.

Kian:

Well, my brother was born on the 1st March. He turns 40. Tomorrow's the 1st day. Today? Oh, yeah.

Kian:

Brother's birthday today. No. It's your brother's birthday. Call him. So so he was born a couple of hours into today on a leap year.

Yaz:

Was he born on a leap year? He was

Kian:

born in a leap year. Mhmm. So he would have been on the February 29th, and he's 40. So he technically, if he was born on the February 29th, he would have only been 10.

Yaz:

Oh, no. That's not how it works.

Kian:

I would have been older than my older brother.

Yaz:

That's not that's not how it works.

Kian:

I kinda wish I was.

Yaz:

But how weird is it if the date actually doesn't exist anymore?

Kian:

Like I said, it's a

Avneesha:

Why does he celebrate his birthday?

Kian:

Well, he's he's born on a normal day of the a normal calendar day.

Avneesha:

Do you say he's born on he's born on a leap year, though, you said?

Kian:

During a leap year. So a leap year is a year where they add the extra day in.

Avneesha:

But he was actually born on the leap

Kian:

Day.

Avneesha:

Day, which is today.

Yaz:

Do you know what's

Kian:

Day, which is yesterday?

Yaz:

I just calculated it by head. Everyone's birthday is thrown off every year by or every 4 years by one day.

Kian:

No. No. It's every year by 1. No. So, like, if you were born on if the if your birthday was Monday this year, next year will be Tuesday.

Yaz:

What are you talking about?

Kian:

So whatever day you're born on, the next year that is your birthday, it will be the day the next day.

Yaz:

That's not what I'm talking about. I'm saying because of the leap year, because one day is added into the calendar Yeah. That would mean our actual birthdays are now one day, further away, which means every 4 years, we get pushed one day. So your brother, for example, right, March 1st, his birthday was actually 10 days ago.

Kian:

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think I see what you're saying.

Yaz:

It was actually 10 days ago because there was a random

Avneesha:

I'm getting so confused.

Kian:

If my brain's hurting, I can't imagine what Avanisha's brain's

Avneesha:

doing right now. But this is actually confusing. But it's very confusing and hurting.

Yaz:

What the listeners are thinking right now. Well, I'm so sorry for this.

Avneesha:

It's look. It's interesting, but I've never thought that much into a leap year. But they always confuse me. It made sense about, like, accumulating, and that's why. That's what happens.

Avneesha:

A day gets added on after 4 years, but the conspiracy theory is confusing my mind.

Kian:

Okay. Well, I know you wanted to do a reaction, video, Yaz. Mhmm.

Yaz:

But what, Ken?

Kian:

But we've run out of time.

Yaz:

Oh, would you look at that? Let's have a quick chat about what happened before we turn the mics on, shall

Avneesha:

we? Oh, no.

Yaz:

Shall we, Ken?

Avneesha:

We've run out of time for that. We're gonna

Kian:

listen to We're running we're running out of time. Yeah.

Yaz:

I know. But I told you this

Avneesha:

was gonna happen, and you're like, yeah. It won't happen.

Kian:

I see. My fault that you started opening up about your traditional households, and we had to dive into it to make sure you sound like sound like a normal person.

Yaz:

You gotta realize we can't

Kian:

an asshole.

Yaz:

We can't limit ourselves on this podcast. When we talk about something, we can talk about it for an hour.

Kian:

There's a whole another episode we can go to.

Yaz:

I just want you to just look at me in the eyes and say, Yaz, you were right. No. You weren't right. But I was. No.

Yaz:

You weren't. To you, 4 topics is gonna be too long. We're gonna go over time. And you

Avneesha:

said, no. We're not. I'll control it. I'll make sure we move on.

Kian:

Well, did anyone do their secret word?

Yaz:

Oh, shit.

Avneesha:

Oh, shit. Were you doing it? No. I forgot to. Imagine Kian did

Kian:

Avneesha:

the whole word was suburb suburbia or suburb?

Kian:

No. The whole word was Yaz as in our

Yaz:

Did you explain did you explain the secret word to the listeners?

Kian:

No. We just Oh, so

Yaz:

now it means nothing.

Kian:

Nothing means nothing. So we'll have to do that next episode as well. So next episode, we'll do secret word. We all have a word each that we have to mention throughout the episode and then you and then we gotta guess what each other's word was.

Yaz:

Oh, god.

Kian:

And we'll do Yaz's reaction video.

Yaz:

It's not gonna work. It's not gonna work because this word thing, every time I say, I'm gonna smile or laugh.

Kian:

No. You won't. You won't. Okay. Alright.

Kian:

Well, be ready for that.
