Yaz slept with a Aussie Celeb, Avneesha's usual household agreement, Arab Stereotypes Ep.22
0:00
what's the problem so like if I don't want to do I don't want to say this if you don't
0:05
want to do the dishes yeah you you'll pay him a coffee
0:11
po what the freak I actually am embarrassed I
0:17
actually thought that this is this this is not a not common phenomenon no [ __ ] well you thought every
0:23
household does this like some sort of yeah maybe with the children in their chores no like for example no with two
0:29
consent adults already cancelled already canell
0:38
already hello hey hey everyone welcome how are
0:44
you what's going on not much this is already canceled yes it is Hills podcast Studios where where we keep we wanting
0:50
to say broadcast we're not broadcasting no every time Ken where we pre-record from Yeah well yeah record from at least
0:57
um yeah it's already canceled K has a and yesterday or the last episode at least we uh missed out on a few things
1:04
because old Jacob took up the whole bloody episode yeah had a very very complex story I felt really bad 10 years
1:12
of marriage about to go down the drain some girl at work is fancy he fancing this girl at work doesn't know what to
1:18
do whether he he goes for the girl or tries to fix his marriage I think for me it was a no-brainer but well but you know it's funny he doesn't even know if
1:24
the girl wants him or not and that's the problem when you're in a relationship for so long as a guy you actually think that you could like leave the
1:29
relationship and get any girl you want we have this weird delusion I think it's the other way around no we're not in a
1:36
relationship and like a hotti walks pass like yeah I can get here if I wanted to oh I see what you're saying you have this big increased false confidence have
1:43
you guys watched H pass the movie H pass I think have I don't remember so like the guys are all in relationships and then their their Partners their wives
1:50
give them a Hall PA pass they they say you've got the week and three to do whatever you want get out of your system and they go in there thinking they're
1:55
top dogs and they get and they get rejected by every sing and they're like what the hell is going on
2:00
yeah it's it's it's it's the male delusion do you guys believe in the notion of a hall pass no I think it's
2:05
the most ridiculous thing that's ever I think it's fake I don't think it's real exactly you just either have an open
2:10
relationship or a closed relationship you know how people have celebrity hall passes yeah that's what I'm saying that's what I mean celebrity okay so
2:16
who's your celebrity pass um yeah no I was never allowed to have one because the chances are we always cross passing
2:22
celebrities so it's like there's actually that that percentage that is possible it still wouldn't happen it
2:28
wouldn't happen it's happened you SLE with a celebrity celebrity who oh I'm not going to say it
2:35
come on there's no way I'm going to say it no no aist Australian no you're bullshitting no I'm not I'll tell you
2:41

2:47

3:33
eluding obviously not Iggy is Alia oh oh
3:39

3:46
one [ __ ] is it no I actually believed it
3:51
no it's not okay okay moving on so let me um a disclaimer here you guys can't
3:59
roast me for this cuz I feel like you will ask to not be roasted I'm so sorry Nish but the rules of the show I thought
4:05
this would be a fun story to share because I was actually curious if either keen and you and Lorraine do this at
4:11
your home and yes when you're in a relationship if you've ever done this but you I feel like you have to live with them to be able to do this I live
4:16
with my parents that count you maybe in your maybe in your household you do this with your with your parents having a
4:22
bartering system okay so this is ridic hold on hold on there needs to be some
4:28
context ages go uh I bought this up to you guys that we have like our own
4:33
snacks which is weird no it's not we obviously have we share the groceries we share everything but like we have
4:39
certain snacks for the week that like we do as meal prep so like he does more
4:45
meal prep than me to be honest but I saw I saw his Instagram post last night what of all these freaking containers of food
4:52
it's like lunch and AO snack and yeah he has like 15 containers full of food and I'm like wow this guy's prepared and
4:59
that's just till Thursday that's like all the like that's uh breakfast lunch
5:05
and well breakfast and lunch can we interview Jared yeah i' love to interview jar he's just abnormal he's
5:11
not abnormal he is what do you mean it's literally just meal prepping why after meal prep he's not trying to be a
5:17
bodybuilder he's very's very like Fitness fanatic I was thinking yesterday
5:22
like like I want to be Jared not not like his place and his
5:28
role but like I want to like take some of what he's doing like he's he's like I saw that he's he was doing this running
5:35
challenge for the year oh yeah and then he heard his Achilles cuz he's a [ __ ] because he he heard his ailles he's not
5:40
a [ __ ] he heard his Achilles running or something did he snap it uh there's no way he SN thank God he just he pulled it
5:47
like I think it was just some sort of but bad so like he just had to like stop running for it cuz that's bad you do your Achilles you actually your killes
5:54
you're out for 2 years oh big time and and then like he's on the treadmill instead of running out he's just on the
6:00
treadmill doing light walks and stuff and I'm like this guy is just nonstop where do you see this on his insta page
6:06
on his story I only watch three or four people's stories and Jared's one of them no really well look he actually goes to
6:13
like he'll go to the gym religiously right like he's go to the gym he'll do he was literally doing 5 kilometer runs
6:20
in the morning and then gym in the afternoon he's got too much time know he
6:25
works full time he works full time but he'll go that in the morning he'll go gym at the night even just for an hour
6:31
because he's very he's disciplined he's a very disciplined individual yeah he really is how he is and then you're completely different and I'm completely
6:37
the opposite and I like my snacks so let's go back to the snacks right we have our snacks he has his snacks that
6:43
he buys for the week but I have I have mine now I bet you yours is like rollups and
6:50
muffins and 100% yeah bana prepackaged cut already
6:56
so little plastic try to be healthy too but the biggest the biggest commodity in our
7:04
house I should say is the coffee pods okay so let me explain you know how I
7:09
talked about having $60 a week that we get to spend on whatever we want to spend on yeah right well I use my $60 a
7:16
week to get it's not they're not a part of the groceries we have our groceries why would they not be a part of the groceries they're literally
7:23
groceries now you know what I didn't care I'm so happy I don't live Aisha's life that is so [ __ ] stressful
7:29
stressful it's not stressful imagine that conversation yes all right let's go do groceries you buy all your groceries
7:35
then she wants the poor thing wants to get um coffee pods n your $60 your $60 pays for that we
7:44
have like coffee at home right but this is like these are like I like to like splurge on these these like special
7:49
coffees right that I that I get I don't know let her talk just let just let her
7:55
talk and let me let's see where this goes oh now I'm embarrassed okay we have
8:00
we get a lot of groceries for the week right a lot of snack not enough obviously no we have well we have a budget and we have like snacks food
8:07
whatever we want right to a certain budget but we get everything we need I get everything I want but these coffee
8:12
pods and it's just the coffee pods really is something that I like to get and splurge on cuz they're my coffees
8:18
for the week I don't really go out and buy them often I like to just have my coffee cuz I love that coffee pot anyway
8:25
enough about coffee I'm waiting for a sponsorship to come out of a m 10% use my discount code no anyway so it's like
8:33
a baring system in the house cuz Jared also loves these coffee pots tell him to Fu out five bucks from his $60 they're
8:39
more than five bucks anyway he like so we we have this baring system we like so
8:44
this is obviously not common in any other household this is just I just want to get I just want to hear it I want to hear what the baring is what's what's
8:50
the problem so like if I don't want to do I don't want to say this if you don't
8:55
want to do the dishes yeah you'll you'll pay him a coffee pod my
9:01
God what the freak I know we're trying not to swear
9:07
in these podcasts but I was so close to swearing then I actually am embarrassed I actually thought that this is this
9:13
this is not a not common phenomenon no [ __ ] well you thought every household does this like some sort of
9:19
part yeah maybe with the children in their chores no like for example no with two consenting
9:25
adults no like for example if you have like a like okay his cardigan oh his
9:31
cardigan she wanted to wear his cardig again you paid him a coffee pot for his cardig again no no no but like I wanted
9:36
that cardig again I loved it and I wanted to have it so her house is a prison her house is a
9:44
prison hey I'll give you my 2minute noodles for your cigarette that's what your house is are
9:50
you are you come here to say something here are we are you in are you in need of help are you calling for help are you
9:58
saying pizza with pepperoni pizza with pepperoni blink three times in a row if you're in trouble I thought this is a
10:05
fun little game that everyone their househ anyway all right
10:12
we have to find the values of everything here can I see yeah sorry go on like like how much does the dishes cost you
10:19
oh yeah yeah yeah what's the value what's the value no like I could get one coffee pot and if you do the if you do
10:25
the pans all right we'll work the system out
10:30
so one coffee you see jar going yes yes and runs up the dishes
10:36
coffee you know you can just go byy go you know what I would say go buy your pods I would say go [ __ ] yourself I'm
10:43
having a coffee what is this world you live in it's not I don't know how to defend myself
10:50
any you don't need to defend we genuinely interested here okay okay so if the if the dishes are one pod and how
10:59
far does this currency go Nishi I mean look the pods are powerful they're like yeah but are you doing like oh a massage
11:05
for three pods like is that is it like going to that extent I mean it could okay from the top of your head
11:12
what's worth two pods ooh that's worth a lot because you only get eight pods I
11:18
think in she can't even buy she's buying eight at a time no but that's that's
11:24
what you get in one in one yeah I know but I've got like I've got yeah but that's how she lifts the value bro I've
11:29
got about ohar it's inflation brother geni
11:34
inflation I was about to roast you for that but that's actually very smart wait there's not much in circulation there's not much in the a massage is worth two
11:41
pods I would no I would say one pod for a mass one pod for a massage you're not getting two pods for a
11:47
massage yeah no what else have you used to barter with him uh the jacket so I
11:52
got I got the cardigan cuz it was it was gifted to him but I really wanted it I really like it was really great hard
11:59
again and I couldn't get it from here it's from like a different country I don't know where but anyway long story short I gave him I think it was two
12:07
coffee bonds you you paid him to wear it or to own it to own it okay that's a good deal yeah it's a good deal that's
12:12
that's pretty good PR you paid like four bucks um yeah exactly hey n I've got I've got a little trick up my sleeve for
12:19
you okay what and I've seen this before so there's this thing that reseals coffee pods it reseals and there's a
12:25
machine that I found on Amazon that reseals coffee pods if you go Chuck some instant coffee Nest Cafe in there and
12:32
then seal it back up you've got unlimited money you're printing money in your house we're going to have to take this out of the podcast though because
12:38
he listens to this so he he'll realize about this but this is I'm not I'm not
12:43
with you against Jared here you're not this whole system needs to go it does but you know what the system is here
12:50
work with it I feel like I'm running a coffee pod cartel like I just can't believe I just
12:55
can't believe the coffee pods are not a part of your groceries that's ridiculous no we have coffee part part of the groceries like like just a un Nest Cafe
13:02
and stuff like that but like this is a special one that I get for myself that
13:08
like I have other coffee too in the house but this is one that I I like cuz it's like a special treat coffee is
13:13
there something that you want from him like something that he has as his thing that he barers with you or is it only a
13:19
one way straight oh yeah yeah yeah so that's what I'm saying he barers with like cuz I hate cooking and I hate doing
13:25
the dishes oh like it is my biggest I I hate it I'll do it so that's his but his
13:31
but is a labor yes does he have any does he have any products or like a Tim Tam like hey I'll a service he usually
13:37
service so like for example driving I hate driving so like usually he wants a
13:43
coffee pot and I don't want to do something he's selling himself short big time does he know he can just go buy
13:48
coffee pods does does that and never has to do anything no yeah he could go by but he doesn't he doesn't want to spend
13:54
the 60 bucks [ __ ] tight ass what a tight ass no because he spends it on
14:00
like like his protein and all this other stuff that he buys like he gets for himself right but I think he's anyway
14:07
this sounds ridiculous but it's not you know why it sounds ridiculous is because I feel like you guys think we just live
14:12
off $60 a week but we don't we have full budget of like living off various get C
14:19
you know I've got a deal for you and Jared what I will up your um $60 budget
14:25
I will up it with my own money you'll both get $100 right all right so I'll put 40 bucks for you and I'll put 40
14:31
bucks for Jared can you guys look at my like look after my finances permanently look after your finances yeah so so you
14:38
guys have access to everything and then just break it down for me I need to start saving money man I do about how
14:44
about this you don't pay us you buy me coffee pods amazing amazing no no no Honestly
14:51
though like for real this is actually serious come over one day and we'll go through your whole budget okay okay
14:58
sweet like that can that that'll be helpful we're going to give you $50 a week as much as as much as I like um
15:06
make fun of it you your guys system is immaculate thank you like you guys are very good with your money yeah so we
15:12
don't do that in our household we live normally we have budgets you don't do any bartering
15:19
system though like like even just for acts of service like if you do this I'll do this no it's unspoken we you should
15:24
just know like our our chores and Duties are cooking dishes rubbish bathing the
15:32
kids isn't there some days you don't want to do your every day that's what I'm saying but we just balance it it's
15:38
just if if I'm doing I feel like doing dishes I'm doing dishes you're doing the kids tonight vice versa God I complain a
15:43
lot I haven't done a chore in 2 years since I moved back into my parents there's a lot there a lot I came home
15:50
the other day and I was like man I was like dreading I was like I need to clean my room like it's just a mess and then I
15:55

16:02
all cleared up no dust anywhere my clothes are folded up it's amazing God
16:08
bless your mom that's amazing honestly do that that's great yeah that's the worst thing is like when it's time to
16:14
change the sheets like just I'm the I'm I'm the I I love it I'm I'm the greatest
16:20
you love it I I'm very domesticated I love I love changing washing all that
16:26
stuff I think I think it's so I just it's like the it's we're clean again bro you would be the coffee pod Master at
16:32
her house you'd own all the coffee pod it would be Survivor for him he' be a strat I'll be fully strategizing
16:38
everything what I want to know you've mentioned something in there and I want to know how your Mom feels about this
16:43
the fact that you don't cook no I you're a strong Indian background Heritage she's upset that I don't know like just
16:51
how to cook Indian food because it's amazing but has she taught you she's tried and she keep saying I want to like
16:56
let me help you and when she tries to teach you how was that experience well the thing is like my like you would know
17:01
yes with like your mom if you ever ask her to like Mom how do I make this their
17:08
ingredients are in their head there's no there's no recipe there's no measuring cups there's none of that [ __ ] I asked
17:14
her for I called her I remember asking her like I wanted to make pumpkin soup for Jared cuz he was on W oh I love pumpkin soup and so she was like you
17:21
know and you're right I should have just probably gone onto the internet and got a recipe but she makes one of the best
17:26
pumpkin soups I just wanted her recipe and she was like a dash of this a bit of this you'll know a little bit of this
17:32
spash of that right because you have to you have to that to get to that level you have to start with some sort of yeah
17:39
but she do measurement and then you get you get good at those measurements and then you're like oh yeah I know how much that is and how much that and she was
17:45
trying to give you measurements but because she does it off like just knowing and so when she was trying to
17:50
relay the information but she wasn't doing it itself the measurements were all off so when I gave it to Jared it was it tasted like catpiss like it was
17:56
so bad and said don't worry about the Pod tonight I'll cook um you know what
18:02
you should do n what I'm doing with my mom so we're writing a cookbook yeah and it's like it's like so it's going to be
18:08
like the Hadad family cookbook right and then it's going to be published it's going to be published yeah proberly I'm going to I'll probably give it away for
18:15
shits and giggles but you know you never know if it does well it does well so it's going to be it's going to be um uh
18:21
I don't know I don't know the name of it yet but it's going to be dedicated to my mom um and then she's going to have her own like two or three pages um it's
18:28
going to be like you know Maggie's blah blah blah blah and then there's going to be my auntie's two three pages and it's going to be her like signature dishes
18:34
that she's really good at cooking and then it's going to be my other aunties and then maybe Friends of the family and it's just going to be like you know
18:40
Lucy's blah blah blah if there's anything if there's anything that you should do before your parents go is get
18:45
all their recipes and and that is a legacy that you can carry on because food is everything in culture it's like
18:52
the number one most important thing in any culture is food Lorraine's doing lorine wants to do the same thing her
18:57
cousin want to get together with all of she's got her from her mom's side there's 13 of them from the dad's side
19:03
there's like 11 of them yeah yeah yeah so they want to bring all all of those different dishes together in one big
19:10
book and then have that for the for all the kids I don't I don't know if they want to sell it or anything and go like to that which is a great idea they just
19:17
want to keep it with you don't even have to sell it just like not publish it but make it authentic a nice hard cover book
19:22
for the family to pass down and pass it down like I think that is a great idea I would love and and then anyone can pick
19:29
it up and and cook them what's what's your favorite mishan dish just curious um they cook a lot but I I do like I do
19:35
like the curries I mean fish CES oh the fish curries are bloody delicious have you had Linda's fish curry not Linda no
19:41
but you got to remember I used to live with um Jean oh yeah of course and his mom used to always send food over to us fish fish and eggplant oh you know what
19:48
they used to make um the lentil soup yep it was just lentil we have LS once a week oh I love lentil lentils once a
19:54
week split peas I can't believe people don't like lentils it baffles me I hated it as a kid I hated it as a kid and then
20:01
it's like in a it's like olives I hated them as a kid love olives it's a quiet thing I think lentil sits in that but
20:06
they're actually so good for you amazing like it's like it's literally you can have lentils and get next to the same
20:12
protein as a steak the only problem is with lentils is the husk around them they always upset my stomach husk yeah
20:19
it's like on the actual lentil itself it has like a hard shell almost like yeah but you me you're not meant you're meant to that meant to soften as you look yeah
20:26
but they still have it that's the thing so lentils have an outer little seed isn't it I I just
20:33
thought lentils were like they remind me of like rice no it's like little circular balls wait what color are your
20:40
lentils you can get different colors you can get red Brown yellow they're brown H
20:46
lentils I'm I'm pretty sure lentils have a husk I'm I don't think I'm going crazy my internet's not working but yeah they
20:51
do I'm confident any know I love we're not in the Dark Ages here the internet connection is just down that's all you
20:57
just reminded me that I need to um uh get this book up and coming up and
21:03
up and going are you writing it all oh myself in chat GPT yeah good like my my
21:09
my but you know the hardest part about it like you said is actually getting my aunties and my mom and all these all these ladies to to actually give me the
21:15
measurements they're like I don't know I don't just put some sugar and if enough put more sugar I think you got to watch
21:21
as they do it no you got to sit and report it as they do it that's how you have to do it and then they want to and
21:28
everything and hey who do you reckon what country do you reckon has the best Cuisines honestly like that let's say
21:34
hypothetically speaking you can only choose one international cuisine for the rest of I would choose something in the
21:41
Asian in the Asian Cuisine I think You' get bored of it really because it's got It's got so many variations and and it's
21:49
very healthy I mean I know there's a lot of salt and stuff very healthy but there's a lot of like uh you've got the
21:55
noodles which is very similar to pasta you've got the sauces which is like
22:01
beautiful and then you've got a lot of veggies and you can have beef chicken or fish like it's got everything that you
22:08
want and it's very quick to cook but it's very the same though noodles rice
22:13
stir fry what else you going to get oh you can like you can like you can have you like that's what you usually get I
22:20
don't think I could live without Middle Eastern food well raised on it is you raised no but even even the um wide
22:26
range of what you can have as a middle eastern dish it it's it's
22:33
unlimited you're not you're not stuck to like you know one certain thing that's true but to be honest if I have to live
22:38
off like food I could live off like charcoal meat and be so happy with it like Portuguese chicken like the the way
22:45
they do their lamb and whatnot I could eat that forever and chili sauce it's all
22:52
barbecue isn't it there's a lot of barbecue a lot of barbecue yeah which is really yum they do a lot of seafood

you mhm amazon.com.au just get your coffee I think cheap that you're right so much
24:00
cheaper and you get them in bulk and you get it in day delivery you'll be you'll be the queen of the
24:06
land were coming around a gold Throne around the house I'm telling you uh you
24:11
know you mentioned you can't live without Arab food love Arab can you live without Arab stereotypes
24:17
probably yeah I think I'm have a pretty good life without any Arab stere it' be nice to have no stereotypes in this
24:23
world there a lot of there are there are stereotypes and there's a few that we've gone on the list here the reason why we
24:28
do this we did this with the Indian stereotypes is because we want to address what's out there and and from
24:33
someone who has Arab Heritage um and very very much into that culture and you
24:39
it you breathe it and you have the direct experience to see how someone how you would feel about these these
24:45
stereotypes I'm the spokesperson for all Arabs around the world today I've been waiting for this day let's go being
24:52
dreamed of so yeah we're going to list through a few and get you a response to it okay I think off the bat the biggest
25:00
one stereotypes all Arabs are Muslim oh that is a big one how do you
25:08
feel about that that is huge so when I um as a Jordanian Jordan's like a 99% Muslim
25:15
country so it's actually rare to have Christians Christian jordanians you know at and about but yeah I have to always
25:22
clarify that I am not Muslim you're Christian yeah yeah I'm Christian but I I'm also a different though because like
25:29
if someone wants to come up to me and and give me the traditional um Islamic greeting ofam alayum I'll always
25:36
reply with which is what a Muslim would respond to another Muslim right so I
25:42
think that might confuse people confuse confuse people but then you look at my tattoos and you'll see that I have the
25:48
cross everywhere but no we are not all muslim okay no and how does it feel how
25:53
do how does it feel when it's assumed though that you're Muslim that that all Arabs are Muslim
25:58
there's nothing wrong with it I don't think mhm totally I totally understand why because realistically speaking when
26:04
any when you hear as someone who's not Arab when you hear about an Arab whether it's on the news or whether it's in a
26:11
movie 98% of the time they're Muslim so what is it split is it mostly just like
26:16
Muslim and Christians I'd say there's a lot more there's a lot more Muslims yeah there would be a lot more Muslims but it also depends on what country you're from
26:22
okay so Lebanon is split pretty much straight through the middle it's like 50/50 okay but then you go to Jordan it's like 99% right is that because like
26:31
the French didn't the French enter into Lebanon and oh they have a lot of like if they colonized or something the the
26:37
French had a massive influence and they would have brought that that that Catholic or Christian or whatever right like that's that's that's logical sense
26:44
to me yeah I don't I couldn't go back in history but most Leos and marinite don't
26:51
know where that comes from when it comes to culture wise so they're marinite Christians a lot of Roman Catholics
26:59
because of the Roman Empire ruled that Phoenician area for a very long time as well um and then you've got Egypt your
27:06
African side which is a lot more Orthodox okay a lot more Orthodox denominations are there of Christianity
27:12
dude there thousands thousands there's actually there's actually thousands of
27:17
of denominations denominations do they differ like quite extensively as in like just what the re
27:25
or is it just like their version of what the Bible says or well here's here's the thing and this is the this is the problem with Christianity and I say this
27:31
from day one it's a very big issue because we've separated biblical from traditional so a lot of churches now no
27:38
matter what church whether you're Orthodox whether you're um uh Catholic
27:43
uh marinite uh there's so many that we can go on Protestant whatever they focus
27:49
more on their traditions of the church than actually what the Bible says itself
27:54
so okay like for example Catholics I love how I'm not even talking about Arabs anymore I'm just curious um like
28:01
Catholics strongly believe in um praising Mary for example right so like
28:08
Mary's a very big part of Catholicism yeah but then you have other really like
28:13
Orthodox for example that say well no you're not meant to pray to Mary because Mary isn't God Mary can't hear your
28:19
prayers and that's what it says in the Bible the Bible says only God can hear your prayers yeah right so a lot of
28:25
people focus on traditions and that's what's actually separated Christianity that's crazy got you got another stereotype we
28:32
can jump into yeah so a big one I think is that people assume that all Arabs are
28:38
rich and to be fair like I still recall
28:44
when we were organizing our reception we went to go see the venue and when we went when we were there like our our the
28:51
person who was kind of helping us with the with the design of the reception room and all that kind of stuff was like
28:56
oh yeah this is um this is getting ready for someone who's getting married yeah right
29:03
and I forget what part they were from but I know that they were Arab over the
29:10
top yeah because when I tell you they spent 100,000 they told us this 100,000 alone on just the flower arrangement
29:18
that was just the base minimum yeah then there were boxes where they which they were unloading and they were fixing up
29:24
the setting the tables with literally golded goldplated uh plates and Cutlery
29:33
goldplated that sounds like an Arab it does and I'll explain to you the situation that we're in now right are
29:39
all Arabs Rich the answer is no and don't point at me when I
29:46
say can only speak on my behalf of you we definitely not rich no so here's the thing right the richest people in the
29:52
world as the minority right when you look at like the rich the top 10 rich people in the world and I'm not talking
29:57
about like your um Elon Musk cuz I'm telling you now Elon Musk what's he
30:03
worth 200 billion or some [ __ ] is that right or am I making that up I actually don't know but it's like in the billions
30:09
right and he's like oh richest person in the world El musk when I tell you that there is an Arab in Saudi Arabia right
30:14
now that has Elon musk's net worth in his spending account I'm not
30:19
exaggerating it's just not public knowledge why is it not public knowledge because it's the West World versus the East world I mean the Arab Nations they
30:26
sit in the east AR they uh well the Middle East yeah yeah so there you go so the the West World reports on the west
30:32
and they just say that that's the whole world well no you got to realiz as well when like Elon Musk is the richest person in the world or um Bill Gates for
30:38
example whoever it is that's because their companies are public it has to be public know true it has to be public actually you're exactly right so these
30:45
these Saudis uhad uh bank accounts private they're all private but I can tell you now they
30:51
have I I would be surprised if at least one of them doesn't have a trillion dollars they've got money so that's what
30:57
we see right and we're like oh Arabs have so much money then there's the second Arab there's there's three there's three Arabs right the first ones
31:02
the ones that are actually rich the second ones that want to look rich and these are the Arabs that we have here in Australia they will spend their last
31:10
dollar on a nice car just so people can see them in a nice car and this is the mentality of a lot of Arabs right it's
31:16
about oh my reputation is more important than what's actually in the bank account the bank account so this wedding that you went to probably loaned the money is
31:24
loaned from the bank and they also trated they could they also as an investment like knowing that their family's going to be giving their money
31:31
as gifts oh that's a massive thing yeah you need to get the money back the yeah yeah the the goal of a wedding is to at
31:36
least it's a profit but if you break even that's also a win it's also a win and that's and that's what you go for um
31:42
then you got your third Arabs who are actually in poverty proper poverty like if you go to these rich countries like
31:48
you go to the UAE right you go to Dubai yeah Dubai's it's like ohib you come to Dubai and you see the buildings and you
31:53
say the Lamborghinis and you say the rolls ryes have you guys ever been to Dubai no it's Insanity you're on the
31:59
highway and you get passed by three rolls of royes in 30 seconds there's just money everywhere but we are talking
32:05
about the city there is a section of Dubai that you can go down like the Emirates you go to the suburbs and you
32:10
see how the actual people are living it's not in luxury it's not like that at all you've got people you've got
32:16
laborers working in 60° weather just to make a couple dollars you know what I'm saying but the good thing is there
32:23
certain Arab countries like that like the golf countries like the UAE um bah
32:29
Qatar and all of them they look after their people really well they do they do is it the government is it is it like
32:35
have you been to a petrol station in Dubai no I don't think I have actually blew my mind so you walk into a petrol
32:41
station let's just say it's a 7-Eleven um you've got your products you got everything in there your food your
32:46
dreams blah blah blah and then there's a section that says for the less fortunate
32:51
you're joking and everything in that section is free free for free and it
32:56
says is take what you what you need not what you want so like it'll say take a
33:02
piece of fruit um take a sandwich and take a drink what and it's free and you will
33:08
not get charged for it so they they have certain things that they try to help the
33:13
less fortunate out with that's really to make themselves feel better though I mean cuz realistically for someone to be
33:19
rich other people have to be poor yeah but that's that's look and I don't think it's a big jump between the billionaires
33:25
and the and the millionaires but but I think I think because a lot of their
33:30
money is made from overseas so that's why they probably can help their people what do you mean so like their biggest
33:36
exports are like gas and all the elements that they have so a lot of their money is is comes from overseas
33:43
they don't really come from their people oh I got I got tourism and yeah
33:50
tourism the money is coming into the country not not from the country not from the economy in the yeah that's
33:55
right so that's probably why they can do all that Poss um and why they should be doing all that to benefit their people
34:01
cuz realistically the people own the land right you'd think so if I am if I'm Australian I have a some sort of right
34:08
that the the land I live on I was born on I work on there's some sort of sense of ownership it's not legal ownership
34:14
but if we're going to sell our water or our gas somewhere out it should be coming back in to benefit us gotcha
34:21
gotcha yeah and that's exactly what's happening over there but not here in Australia well what do you mean where the biggest exporter of gas yeah I'm
34:27
saying Australia is and but how is that that's a whole another topic that we're going to break down by the way yeah I've
34:32
interesting things about we like our country should be the richest the richest country in the world it really should be big time but we're getting
34:39
roted we have we have we have like uh mines that have that we know exist that
34:44
are just untouched untouched yeah they're untouched because they're like saving Investments for the future
34:50
anyways we'll break that down another about this stereotype and it's not I wouldn't say it's a negative one
34:55
but you could break it as that um Arabs are very hospitable and treat their
35:01
guests really excessively well um I am yet to come across a Arab
35:09
stranger that hasn't been extremely hospitable like ridiculously hospitable
35:14
um there's actually a video on YouTube so I was watching um this this vlogger and he went to Jordan and I was like oh
35:20
I love this vlogger I'm from Jordan I want to see what it was about yeah and he said this as well and he said oh you
35:25
know we've heard that Jord I'm speaking in the video um extremely hospitable um
35:31
let's test it out so he literally goes and knocks on a random door yeah and he
35:36
goes hi I'm just you know in your country never been here before blah blah blah instantly the guy goes come inside
35:42
really he's like come inside let me talk to you about Jordan what you should do blah blah blah I'll make us lunch whatever and then he met the whole
35:48
family this is a complete stranger met the whole family had tea with them had lunch with them um got like a what to do
35:54
in Jordan list and then headed out is is that because Stranger Danger real here in Australia or real here in the Western
36:01
countries compared to like o stranger dangers there's some areas in the Middle East that you would not even drive
36:07
through no but when you say hos like I want to know where this Hospitality comes from right because like if someone knocked at my door and was like Hey I'm
36:14
new to the area i' like okay lock the doors get the bolt like i' I'd be scared
36:21
if I'm being honest but you hear about the hospitality like for example like like you said this guy has gone and he's
36:28
literally knocked at randoms door and they've let him in like where does that happen he and his two friends as well wasn't just him by himself so okay gang
36:35
of people it's like at any chance they could have just robbed the house and done something bad um you got to also
36:42
remember that the laws in the Middle East what hit my mind too are very very
36:47
different people are AF they're afraid to commit crime yeah okay and if a foreigner commits a crime I'm assuming
36:54
it's it's the same or is it worse think anything like extradition when it comes to that right look it all depends on the
37:01
judge and it depends on who's looking over the the case but the punishment in
37:06
the Middle East for crimes depending on what the crime is is could be pretty horrific you know what I mean certain
37:12
countries used to like um I don't know which country exactly but for example the the theft rate yeah was at zero zero
37:19
no theft for like 20s something years why because if you were to steal
37:26
something whether be a loaf of bread an apple or a car whatever it is right right there's no jail time you don't get
37:31
jail they'll just chop your hand off yeah okay you used your you used your
37:36
hand to steal that Apple cut it off well they they do um um it it sounds very
37:42
barbaric is what you would is how you would describe it but there's other ones like I've just researched here what are
37:47
brutal punishments in the Middle East stoning they still do stoning oh I can't I don't know this is
37:55
also under this's there's there's different types of laws that we got to take into consideration like like under Islam and under you know what I mean
38:01
there different countries a lot of the Middle East has Sharia law runs by Sharia law yeah like and there's um yeah
38:06
there's uh stoning beheading in public is that Sharia law uh I I don't I don't
38:12
know if it's I wouldn't know uh there's there's it says Islam here but you know
38:17
I'm not I'm not an expert so I'm just reading what I'm seeing here but there's a list of crimes that's capital punishment like they do capital
38:23
punishment a lot of capital punishment in the Middle East has now gone yeah that's what I was about to say I think it's a lot of it has gone but there's
38:29
still some countries out there that are messed up you don't know you don't know well don't commit crime even even even
38:39
adultery yeah of course um robbery witchcraft homosexuality Rebellion rape
38:45
I mean a lot of them I get I can understand when it comes to like rape and stuff like yeah of course punish
38:50
punish punish you know um you you Nisha you said you've been to Dubai right yeah did you go to the food courts in the
38:57
yeah I wanted to buy more that place is just you you can keep going for days um
39:03
but yeah we went to the food court in Dubai Mall so we went to Dubai Mall and I was shocked at this are you ready yeah
39:09
so I went had lunch with a friend that lives in Dubai and then he's like oh let
39:15
me go save us a seat before we go order our food right and I'm okay the place is packed it's Dubai
39:21
more hundreds of thousands of people anyways so we go we find a table we finally find a table
39:27
he puts his phone and his keys on the table and then he walks off for 20 minutes and no one was there like we
39:33
just left the phone and the keys he goes That's how you reserve your spot I go what do you mean I go if I did that at
39:38
Paramount Westfield my phone's gone and the table's gone he goes no one no one will still here no one well that doesn't
39:44
surprise me cuz when I when we were when we were there and the taxi driver yeah uh was kind of showing us around he
39:50
became our like tour guide it was really weird yeah they love doing that tax drivers it became our tour guide and he
39:56
basically said he goes you will notice that there's no cops around mhm and I like oh my God that's so true like I
40:01
haven't seen one cop pass by and he goes a lot of them are undercover but they don't like to make anyone feel at like
40:07
unease but the reality is you're so safe here regardless because no one's committing there's cops everywhere in
40:13
Dubai you just don't know their cops they just don't know the cops everywhere um even when I rented a car I rented a
40:19
car and then when I parked it we my me and my mate got out of my got out of the car I locked it and he laughed at me he
40:25
goes Nobody locks their car bro because it's just not a thing here like like nobody locks you don't need to because
40:31
nothing's going to happen to your car nothing's going to happen to your products you could leave your laptop in a convertible for days and no one will
40:38
go in there to grab it what a like I don't know if I I don't agree with like the the capital
40:44
punishment for like as you said like stealing a loaf of bread and in certain areas and having that doesn't exist
40:50
anymore I know you be in Saudi Arabia s Arab hands if it exists but like the idea of having such a safe environment
40:57
like that where you don't have to worry about your products going to the beach and going for a swim or whatever right and you can leave your stuff on the S no
41:04
one would take it there's nothing worse than going down to the beach like Bondi and then looking back at your stuff every 30 seconds to make sure that no
41:10
one's taking it even when it comes even it comes with your kids if your kids want to run off at in the shops and go you know whatever go into a toy shop by
41:16
themselves you would allow them to do that because nothing's going to happen to them that's nothing at all I I
41:22
actually reckon if we search safest country in the world Dubai I think it it'll be an Arab country for sure safest
41:29
I'm very curious country in World definitely wouldn't be a Western Country I could maybe I can guarantee it's going
41:35
to be I feel like Sweden or something like that might might be on the list no chance oh it say Iceland no where yeah
41:43
Denmark yeah Nordic countries maybe not sa maybe lowest crime rate is what we're
41:48
looking for I guess safe and and you know lowest crime rate cuz when you say safest you're talking about like
41:54
location as well I feel like being in the Middle East Iceland Iceland is the
41:59
is the top and then Switzerland is down then Singapore Singapore is also one of those
42:04
count that has very hard laws like you can't spit you go to jail for spitting yeah
42:10
you can't spit in the middle I've been to Singapore once and that was one of the things that got got brought up New Zealand New Zealand yep you know what's
42:17
great about Dubai actually which was really amazing to hear aggression is illegal in public aggression can't you
42:24
can't be aggressive in public of the top 15 safest countries in the world on best diplomat. org there is not one Middle
42:31
Eastern Arab country so shut up but you know what
42:37
though you I felt I felt incredibly safe I felt incredibly safe when I was in
42:43
Dubai it was great oh yeah know Dubai's well there you go there's some uh
42:49
stereotypes cracked for you there's a few more but probably shouldn't bring those up right now no what do you mean
42:55
on mine is there is a the fifth safest country in the world according to uh according to the
43:02
