We're talking about giant red flags that were waved in your face and then you still marry them anyway.

Hello Jackie, Hello, Hi Jackie. I'm excited to hear about this beautiful relationship.

Let's go well, there was a couple of red flags. The first one was.

Probably only minor.

He was living on his own and he had a cat.

Which the red flag.

Yeah, I'm a bit worried about that cat owner here.

And his name was Darling, which I thought, Okay, that's the red flag.

To be outside going Darling Darling.

I thought that was weird, Jackie, So let's just let's just narrinate in the cat for a minute. Did he choose the name Darling himself? He did, Oh no, right, it's not great. That's murdery.

That was.

That was the small That was the small red flag. The big red flag was when I went to get a.

Cowl out of the linen covered and there was no linen in there.

It was filled with toilet paper.

Prep. I always think about this.

Nathan always has this theory about how much toilet paper you should have. I watched the lady walk out last the shots with forty eight.

Your face.

You know you could absolutely, I know you can buy apartment block tower sized boody toilet roll situations. But anything anything more than six is embarrable.

But I get who gives a crack which is delivered to your door and it's a box of forty eight because that's how it comes.

And that lost me a year.

So if we went into your linen covers, not in the.

Linen cub but no, it's not in the linen cupboard.

They are fair root five Jackie. There's some really interesting red flags.

Yes, and money.

Yeah, So what happened to the relationship Jackie? Two years?

Say?

No, we're not smugging to anyone. Have we yet left them?

No?

No, No, that Joe from yesterday has, But hey, everybody else I'm Jackie.

Since then? Have you owned other cat?

Yes? We have.

U.

We have a bit of a same with alcohol, so we have We've paid Muey and Bailey and Brandy and and we have Shadow now as well.

Jackie. That's that's a beautiful love story. And do you have enough toilet paper right now? Jackie?

We do? We do that they don't. Company's not feel but we have enough.

You do you have spare towels and sheets, hilarious kitlins in Caversham High. Kaitlin, how are you going?

What was the red flag? Kaitlyn?

Okay, So with my partner at the beginning of our relationship, for the first three months, we had a girl texting him every single day on Snapchat and I know it was everything because they had a snappat streak going and I asked him about it. Then I said, well, what's going on here, you know? And he told me that it was just a friend of his friends and she lived in Brisbane and there's nothing really poor about they were just really really good friends whatnot. And then like a month later we would fall and about some things and you've mentioned the skill that he used to sleep with and who she was friends with, and then I actually like put together the stories on the dots and I realized that that was the girl.

Yes, and he was.

Basically start cutting the skill every single day for about four months. The skill here that he used to sleep Yes, yes, yeah, I couldn't believe that.

I know, you broke it off with him. I never saw him again, right, and you married him?

Honestly, No, we're married now. He told me that he just doesn't see an issue with white lives.

With what.

Okay, that's how you have a bigger red flag.

That's a massive Are you still married?

Yes?

Yes, okay, John.

Can you imagine going to meet and saying I don't see a problem with white lives.

Can you imagine going for that?

No?

No, I mean you don't have a problem with white lives, but you wouldn't say it.

How so, have you ever gotten past this? What's the deal? How are you guys doing?

You're right?

Yes and no?

Because now, like I always hold the white lives.

Yeah, the white making a statement like that, like white lives are okay, it's sort of your you're you're you're laying out permission for yourself. And then and then every time that you're caught out, you can say, well, I told you white lives are okay, and like that for you, Caitlin, I don't like that at all. You deserve the truth, sweetheart. You deserve the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

Most of the time.

Maybe maybe she can't handle the truth.

She can handle the truth. She can handle the truth. Allie. You've been with Dougie for a while now, there's been any red flags flapping in your face. It says, don't marry him.

Well, thank thankfully for Dougie.

He's color blind and can't see my red.

It's the Nation, Nutt and Sean podcast. We're inspired by On the Block, where it turns out that one of the teams, Stephan Young, had seventeen pots in their dining room alone.

Too many.

We are talking about way too many of the same thing in the one room. These are going to be unbelieved. We always heard tales of the cushions and the candles.

No, we get that that standard fridges, Nathan, you were.

Telling ridges, come on couches, kitchen bonnie. Hello, Hi, have you got too much of something at your house?

Oh?

My husband has eight between barbecues and pizza servants, and they all work and we use them regularly. And this is in an al fresco probably three by four sides.

Body.

So so loves to cook clearly and use all these different contractions.

So is there like a bunch of barbecues that are the same or is that just one?

Yeah?

All different.

So we have a pellet smoker, a gravity smoker, an offset smoker, we have a wood barbecue, we have a spit roaster, we have a wood fired oven, and then we have a pizza oven that goes into one of the barbecues, and we have an egg.

Amazing. You really wish that you live by the water because you could have just had Noah's art, just like you can just walk all the animals down straight on their own barbecue. Does he ever have more than one going at the same time? What's the maxis had at the same time going?

Oh yeah, So if we have people over, we might have the egg going with some chocol in, and we've got something smoking in the smoker and there could be something on the road.

To three must smell at your head.

Even a vegan lived near.

Amazing eight barbecues. Thanks Bonnie Janelle Hallowe. Hello, Okay, what have you got too many of it your house?

Yeah, people did all runners anymore didn't otherwise, It's very were talking about how do you have, Sean.

God, I reckon, we've got a few because all the kids, almost all of them, have got to lock a rug at the end of their.

Bed, on the on the carpet.

Can I just say, isn't that disgusting that parents these days go, I bet I have to access her as my child's room with a rug. We didn't even know what rugs were growing up Pipeline. We were lucky to have a floor.

We didn't.

The closest we had to a rug when we were kids was a bath mat. Oh yeah, you get better A Matt, thanks foraver.

It's the Nathan, Matt and Sean Podcast. I've always taken one warning, very seriously, never smile a crop.

I wouldn't show. Yeah, I've been. I've been the crop parking brilliant. Yeah.

Mining, I'm minding my own business and Leadville. I'm going to grab some soush crocodile. No, oh, okay, right, something more dangerous.

Okay, yeah, I'm ready to hear it.

So I'm a person where and I know a lot of us do this. I walk past people and smile.

Yeah, I do too.

I smile when they're approaching them, the smile, walking past the smile, maybe even a bit of a head nod. We're all part, We're all part of this earth. Let's say, hey, okay.

When I'm going for a walk, I'm a helloa morning hi ye give someone about people are more responsible.

It's a little tell me. So this woman around mum's age so one hundred and ninety okay, so.

A personally Marlene is not that old one of.

Her hipsies, but her knees like four years old. Yeah, that's that fresh Ass's amazing. So this, so this, this, this, this mum is walking towards me. Yes, And I was smiled at that because you know, hey, And then she stopped and she said, what are you smiling at? And I laughed, that's funny. I know she was serious. Do you want to know what I was smiling at? And I said, I was just being friendly and she said you should stop doing that and walked away. You should stop doing that. Try to do something wrong, I know, in a me too movement, but like, is that something against me too?

I wouldn't think.

Against me, against me?

I don't think me too was really focusing on people smiling at other people.

I just didn't know how far it went.

No, not when you're walking down and and just.

I think that's a perfectly acceptable thing to do, to smile at somebody nice.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And like what amazes me is that not only was she displeased by you smiling at it enough to actually see something like you could have just gone oh and moved on. And I'm just kind of grumpy, But what are you smiling at?

And then also you should stop that. Yeah, like I'm dangerously hanging off a building, put a bullet in a gun and playing Russian Roulette.

There are times when smiling isn't appropriate, like like when you're getting in trouble or something like that.

Or if someone's telling it that someone's died.

Yeah, yes bad.

My second son, Cooper, I've had a go on many times over the journey where he is just laughing at me or smiling back. I'm dead serious, and so I've got to come back to that this is serious stuff here, but he's just laughing.

And funerals people don't like speak like there's there's there's polite you've died smiling at the funeral, But you can't have like a beaming. Hey, let's say.

Someone's cracked an amazingly funny joke and no, no, you know as the car Siri. Sorry guys, as the car being lowered. It's not the appropriate time, Natalie.

There are people that have resting bitch face.

Yeah, and there are people that have like I smile a lot, and so people not here.

Everybody's seen it around this building, but outside the joint light.

Well, that's on you.

Up and fresh provisions a week, yea pop in. And I was thinking exactly the same like he was resting. Because you you lose.

The elasticity in your face.

Yeah, all you can do is just be miserable.

That's because you just got jows. Old people, Yeah, because.

It takes fewer muscles to smile them.

That's to frown.

But it is terrible when you get to the age where both of your cheeks have got too long National geographic elobes.

Yes, hello, Amanda. Hello, did you get in trouble for smiling?

Yes?

I got in trouble for smiling while getting my tattoo done because my tattoo artist thought I was enjoying it too much.

Oh deeper here, so they don't like the you to enjoy getting a tattoo.

Well, it was. I think it was a bit of a joke when he said it. He just isn't really used to people smiling so much when they getting tattoos done.

I spoke, was it a big tattoo and was it in a sensitive or supposed to be in a sensitive spot where most people wouldn't like it?

No, it was on my arm, so yeah, it wasn't an overly sensitive spot. But I guess I'm just a smiley person and I really can't help.

I'm a bit like that.

If I'm in pain, I'll start laughing. That's my that's my way through it. And so yeah, then everybody's like, what sort of weirdo are you?

Like really inappropriate times when he probably shouldn't, or like, I just feel a bit awkward. So I just smile and laugh, because why not.

We all want to know what's what's the tattoo of?

It's actually a tattoo of my daughter's name with some very abstract detailing around it.

So I think it's the only safe bet a child's name or mum. That's it. Yeah, that's it, that's.

What you're gonna have. Well done, Amanda, Thank you Terry's Intoville Grave. Hello, Hello, Hi. Do you get in trouble for smiling? Terry?

I can't help it. But during high school we'd get the cane constantly, you know, for having her elbows on the tables, stid. She's under this one teacher that would always came. So every time he changed me, I just dare at him and smile, so he'd get really.

More like real eye contact with him through his soul and just have a big grim on your face.

Yep, yep.

Oh god, you know what the guy that loves to people that are making cane your heart? Yeah, she's liking this.

He brought a no time you know am the tea. He actually said, this loser wants to see you. I went in and I said, oh, yeah, look Jeremy said that he wanted to see me.

Yep.

And he said, look, just just a couple of little issues. And I said, oh okay. He said he just he comes in every morning really happy, the biggest smile in his face. And he said, I find it a little bit odd. I said oh, and he said oh and he said yeah. He said it probably does annoy me a little bit too.

I said a little bit.

Yeah. He said he annoys me because he's always happy. And I said, look, I said I can't help that. I said, that's two he is, and I said we like to. We grow up in a very positive family. Encouraged them to do their best every day, have a happy day. And I said anything else and he said, it's just one more issue. He said he tends to always sit on the chair with one leg and touched under.

He was just looking for a second race. Oh my god, because he's I think I might have done it in that. I've called his parent and David because son's happy.

To be fair, the guy was weird.

So did you take this up with the school though?

But of calling the parent, can I say the prince always asking.

For the manager?

He was like eleven, and I'm thinking, oh.

Then there was a shift where anyone of authority can say your child has done something and you don't believe.
