Wellness Retreats, Drag Shows, and Lesbian Dating Apps: A Weekend in Sydney
Wellness journeys take unexpected turns as Matt dives headfirst into his first-ever yoga experience at the Australian Yoga and Wellness Festival. What begins as friendly support for his friend Miami transforms into a profound personal awakening during a Sacred Breath healing session that reconnects Matt with long-forgotten childhood memories. Through tears and physical sensations, he discovers parts of himself he never knew were missing, raising questions about healing, trauma, and self-discovery that resonate with anyone on their own wellness path.
The episode delivers a powerful life lesson from presenter Caitlin Vincent that might change how you approach social obligations forever: you're allowed to say "no" without justification. For chronic people-pleasers, this simple permission to prioritize your own wellbeing represents a revolutionary act of self-care. Matt's enthusiasm for his newfound yoga practice (complete with newly purchased yoga bolsters and blocks) showcases his characteristic ADHD-driven passion that listeners have come to love.
The conversation shifts to a night out celebrating their friend Sammy's unusual "first birthday" – after discovering her actual birth date differed from what she'd celebrated her entire life. The evening at Newtown's Bank Hotel and the Imperial features hilarious mishaps including an accidentally ordered beer, a single scallop entrée, and a phantom steak that was never actually ordered. Among the laughter and dancing emerges a fascinating discussion about the stark differences between gay male and lesbian dating apps, revealing cultural insights that prompt deeper questions about how queer men and women navigate relationships differently.
Whether you're curious about wellness practices, LGBTQ+ dating culture, or simply enjoy authentic conversations filled with humor and heart, this episode delivers entertainment alongside thoughtful reflections on self-discovery and friendship. Join us next time as we continue our exploration of relationships and dating with more bizarre facts and insights you won't want to miss.

Speaker 1:Fully Grown Homos with Dave and Matt On today's episode. We've got a lot to cover off this week, dave. I thought we were going to have a really chill week, but we've done fucking tons again. Well, you've done a lot more than I have. I have I've done. You've been a busy boy, been a busy boy, but we've done a lot again, as per usual. So today we're going to chat about a few things. I'm going to kick it off and talk about my day yesterday. You had a good day, didn't you? I had a great day yesterday. I um I went to a health and wellness um retreat sort of day. Um, it was a festival festival, health and wellness, the australian health and wellness festival um with miami, with miami, and it was actually held at the conference centre near Panthers.
Speaker 1:there it was in the Pullman basically. And that venue was good when we went to it last time to see a band, but it was very loud last time, whereas this time it was pretty much perfect for what it was.
Speaker 2:So was it set up in different because I didn't go. So was it set up in different rooms.
Speaker 1:So it was set up in four different, because I didn't go. So was it set up in different rooms? So it was set up in four different rooms, okay. And then there was some other little rooms that had like market stalls and little massage areas and some different rooms and different things sort of set off. There was like a. When you walked in, there was like a cushion area like with all the cushions on the ground, and there was a flutist playing music there and so he then changed to a guitar, a flutist flautist, I don't know a guy that plays a fucking flute. All right, anyway, I like that it doesn't put in his pussy, um, okay, I'm like an american pie, um, but yeah. So it was really really well laid out, really really well organized, um, so thank you to the organizers of the health and wellness festival. Will you be?
Speaker 1:putting a um a link to the event well, it's, it's only held sorry, yoga and wellness festival, not health and wellness festival. Yoga and wellness festival um, so there is a website so that I guess, if you want to actually check it out next time around, or it might actually move to different venues and I'm keen to find it if it does, because if it does, I'll definitely go and check it out in different venues as well. Yogawellnessfestivalcomau and it was a full-on day. It's actually a two-day event, but me and Miami only went for one day.
Speaker 2:So what sort of prices are people looking at for this? So so for the one day it was about 100 bucks, which is pretty good for all that, because you were there, for you were there for literally eight hours from yeah from literally eight o'clock in the morning all the way through to bloody five o'clock.
Speaker 1:Well, it actually went till six o'clock, I think it was and you had a choice of what seminars you went to.
Speaker 1:Well, you had four different rooms, so you so you had move, you had heal, inspire and ground right, and so they had different things in every single room. So they had things like yoga classes. Inspire was all about people getting up there and talking about their inspirational journeys and sort of what you can do better in your life potentially Not telling you what you can do better, because they acknowledged very much that it was their own personal journeys and stuff like that. So that was actually really good. Then ground was all about sort of grounding yourself, like here was about some healing of yourself and stuff like that.
Speaker 2:So look, what were the demographics of people like? Were they old, young?
Speaker 1:It was mixed it was really, really mixed. Okay, um, look, I thought I'd be the only guy there and I wasn't. There was some young yogi type guys there, yeah, but there were some older guys that you would look at, um, and like you'd look at them if they were panthers, and you go oh yeah, they're rough head guys and you'd go oh wow, you're here.
Speaker 2:They're roughhead, guys and stuff like that. Oh really, okay.
Speaker 1:So people that you wouldn't really, and you'd go oh wow, you're here doing yoga. Yeah, which was really quite good, especially from myself, because I kind of went, I was interested in it?
Speaker 2:Yeah, because you'd mentioned this before.
Speaker 1:But I kind of went more as a support person for Miami yeah Right, because I thought she wanted to do it and I thought, yeah, okay, it looks fun and I love a festival and things like that. So I and I love a market store because I love buying.
Speaker 2:You're not averse to doing sort of like no, no, I love, I love wellness and all that. Yeah, I do love wellness. You have done that in the past I have done it in the past.
Speaker 1:I'm definitely a gym person and everyone does all that. Um, however, I have never done a yoga class in my life. I've always wanted to, but it just never presented itself. And any time that I'd thought about doing it, I looked at the pricing and went, nah, that's a bit much for that. Right, I can join a gym and pay 30 bucks for the whole week. Why would I pay 50 for two classes? Yeah, yeah, but I kind of get it now.
Speaker 1:I kind of get it because you're not just getting a gym workout, although, holy fuck, you're getting a gym workout, right, it was insane, like so, the first session I did and I'm not going to go session by session by session by session, right, because otherwise we'll be here all day, um, but I did two yoga classes throughout the day, one at the very beginning and then one at the end, and I say we did, sorry, two different types, two completely different types, and don't ask me what they are like.
Speaker 1:I do have a description of them in my phone, but again, that'll take us to tomorrow. But because I also don't know how to read half of the words, like they did this vinyasa yoga or something like that. I don't know how to read half of the words. They did this vinyasa yoga or something like that, I don't know. Anyway, but I did these two different sessions. The first one was, I want to say, easier. It was still tough, right, I kind of went oh God, okay, I didn't expect yoga to be challenging because I thought it was all like hippie guru, downward dog, which you know very well yeah, I do.
Speaker 1:I thought you were able to show them a few things oh yeah so but um, so it sort of did that first session. It was good, it was really good. Um then we did a couple of inspire sessions with a couple of talks, um with with caitlin vincent, who was great. She does you Go Girl and you Go Sis, which are basically self-empowering sessions and websites. She has her own podcast as well. Awesome, and she was great. It probably wasn't for me. That session wasn't for me.
Speaker 2:Or maybe you weren't ready for it.
Speaker 1:No, no, no, it was a lot around the menstrual cycle and stuff like that. Right okay, fair enough, yeah, and there was a lot of getting in touch with your sexuality and your femininity and stuff like that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it can't work for men as well, which is fine, yeah yeah, she definitely targeted the male audience as well, not with. Definitely targeted the male audience as well, not with the periods, obviously, but no, well, well, no, she did say that we have cycles, that men have cycles as well, so she was actually very clever she's come from a teaching background an education background.
Speaker 2:Yep and um very good at what she does and her energy levels were insane she wasn't you got to be to be yeah, yeah, in that sort of industry, in that um, but they weren't overwhelming insane, they were just that right balance.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so she was really really inclusive, but I'm taking control, yeah yeah, um, so she was great as well.
Speaker 1:Um, like, we went and seen sam, which was like connecting with my authentic self. Sam henderson, um, he's a life coach and stuff like that as well. Yep, um, that was great as well. But again, that was a meditation sort of state thing and I kind of might have nodded off on that because the noise in the back of the room. We decided we'd sit in the back of the room and the door kept opening and closing. So I got distracted at the beginning because ADHD me right finds it hard to focus at best at times, as you may have known, if you listen to this podcast, um and um. So I was not really listening to that because I was getting annoyed by the door opening and closing and thinking just fucking put a block out period like or lock it, lock the fucking door so no other fucker can come in here, right, um, so I can focus on what I'm supposed to focus on here. But as a result, I had a great nap.
Speaker 1:So were they playing like music and stuff in the background yeah, yeah yeah, so there was your, um, your sort of very subtle undertones of music and because, um, like sam's session was hypnotic yeah, right, so it was actually, and it was hypnosis, um, as such, and a very light hypnosis you know all about that I do. Yeah, but I nobody got dragged up on the front to be a chicken this time unfortunately or a muscle man or a conductor or anything like that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like I did on the cruise. No, but it was hypnotic and it was very calming, okay, and as a result, I had some great snoring.
Speaker 2:Did you use any sort of like visual things? Yeah, yeah, took you through a whole period of that? But also, do you know when you hold different objects, inanimate objects, to bring you into a different?
Speaker 1:realm, like a crystal or something like that. No, no, we didn't use any of that in the session. Okay, but again, what he took us through I can't really say, because I kind of fell asleep.
Speaker 2:No, I fell asleep. Oh, I know that one. The other other one you talked about.
Speaker 1:Yeah, the other one. Okay, and then I'm going to jump back to that. We did a sound healing as well, right, which was great.
Speaker 2:Not sounding, but sound healing.
Speaker 1:Sound healing with Christy Lee Dinovich right and she was really really lovely as well. Her energy again. A lot of the people that do this wellness. They don't do it because it's a profitable thing. No, they do it because this is who they're meant to be.
Speaker 2:This is the one you're telling me about from richmond that no, this is a different.
Speaker 1:So I'm going to jump back because I definitely want to dive a little bit into that one. Okay, um, but chris, the sound healing was great with christy lee, um, and she was very calm and and it was very calm and it was very relaxing and sort of gentle and sort of laying on the ground.
Speaker 2:How was Miami throughout this process? She was phenomenal.
Speaker 1:So Miami, as you know and as anyone that knows her, she loves a chat right and between her and me, and I've seen a meme on Facebook the other day and it says like other people's story, and it's like one railway track, and then it's like ADHD people's storytelling and there's like literally a thousand tracks and I actually put a comment on that yeah, but where's the station? Me and her together in a room. Normally we don't shut up and we never finish a conversation, but it's a fun though. Oh, it's great, it's great.
Speaker 2:But it's a fun though.
Speaker 1:Oh, it's great, it's great, it's great, great, great, great great, but we never, ever finish a conversation.
Speaker 2:Well, no, I've never heard you ever finish a conversation.
Speaker 1:Fuck you um you're right, but fuck you. But um, but together, like, but we were both well, she was very calm throughout the day and stuff like that. So we were there on a healing journey. Yeah, right, so Right. So so we were taking it seriously, but we still had so many laughs and so much fun, which is good. You need that, cause we did, cause that's us to a T anyway, yeah, um, but yeah she, she got a lot out of the day as, and I definitely. And then, like I said, that last yoga session oh my God, my fucking body is aching today. I didn't know yoga. I didn't touch him. Honestly, correct, I did not know yoga could be hard work and it was for the best possible reasons. Now, as a result of these couple of yoga sessions, I'm now going to go and open a yoga retreat, because that's what my ADHD is yeah, your ADHD is kicking in already.
Speaker 2:I'm now going to go and open a yoga retreat, because that's what my ID is. Yeah, your ADHD is kicking in already. I'm going to hyper-focus on this yoga. So Matt's already spent his next week's allowance, his next year's pay package, which he'll put in the garage and forget about.
Speaker 1:I've opened up a yoga retreat in Bali this afternoon and I'll be an instructor by the end of the week, because that's the way you operate.
Speaker 2:I love your enthusiasm, enthusiasm. But sometimes your enthusiasm takes over and before you know, you've got a garage full of stuff.
Speaker 1:Hey, if my over enthusiasm didn't actually start. This podcast would never have come into play, very true very true, so and so would a lot of things in our life. I'm not knocking it.
Speaker 2:I think it's great, but sometimes I have to roll my eyes because you go, you say a few things, oh my god, what other subject matter can you come into?
Speaker 2:to play with and I'm like, oh wow, because I literally have no time in my life as well matt can be the only one that go in to buy tissues, say, and then come out with a whole bathroom set or something like that, saying completely random, saying different. He'll walk past the shop and go, holy fuck, I need that in my life and I'll go and fucking buy everything, yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but look, the thing is that I and again I've just I'm not a massive footy head, right, I do enjoy football, right. I couldn't sit there and tell you every rule or anything. I know the basic ones and all that kind of stuff, right, and the players and some of the players, right, but again, I couldn't tell you who they all are or anything like that. They all are Now because of my locale. Now Penrith is my team, right, so Parramatta have been my team my whole life, right, but let's face it, they never win anything. But I went to the Panthers game last week, as you guys heard, and that with Manly. But I decided when I'd seen the Vegas jerseys that I wanted one right Now. They haven't been available anywhere, but I found a place where they're available so I had to buy one.
Speaker 2:Now, I'm just laughing completely off the topic anyway, but yeah so so yeah, my hope adhd brain. Why I never get to the end of a story, guys? Because he never goes off on a tangent. Anyway, tell, tell us about the jersey. Anyway, you may as well. So I've got one and I'm going to go and pick it up today. That was completely irrelevant, but there you go.
Speaker 1:However, back to the Yoga and Wellness Festival. Welcome back, hello. I do get back to them sometimes, especially if I've got a piece of paper in front of me that says focus on this. So my session of the day all right was definitely. It was with oh, and I just had what do you do? Why do you do that to me? Um, okay, it was. It was called um sacred breath healing your inner child. Right, with michelle dieball. Right, she's a health and wellness practitioner, she's from Richmond. She's out at Richmond, Okay that's Richmond New.
Speaker 1:South Wales, yeah, new South Wales, right, but she has a website, an Instagram, right? It's called 1000paths, right? So 1000 as in A, and then 1000, the number, but it's actually in letters and then paths. Why is that hard to say P-A-t-h-s like as in the path, yeah, paths right yeah, um, it's just hard to say right, it's okay she does. Um, so miami went to her for some reiki, okay, yep, right, and she spoke about breath work and things like that.
Speaker 1:Yep so one-on-one so that was one-on-one. She did that, miami did, and um was that was that included in the actual cost?
Speaker 2:no, no this was a bit. This is oh, you see, oh, so she's seen her before.
Speaker 1:Okay, that's what brought us to this actual festival, right, okay, yeah, all right, that makes sense now. So we signed up for this. We, we would go into this session. We made sure we got there nice and early and we would definitely go into this session because that's the session we wanted to go to. Yep, and, as it turns out, that's the session that everyone wanted to go to, because it was chock-a-block full. Right right now, I'm a bit skeptical, right, I definitely go into things with open mind yeah however, I go in there thinking we'll see, yep right.
Speaker 2:So, like you know, to believe it is yeah, yeah to him now breath work.
Speaker 1:I hadn't really heard much about, right, but you sit there and they take you through.
Speaker 1:Now it was michelle.
Speaker 1:There was a couple of other people that were also working with michelle and I've not got their names with me, but if you go to her website a thousand paths no doubt you'll be able to connect in with all of them.
Speaker 1:Yep, um, but this session that they run, or they ran, um, you lay down, they take you through some breathing, they explain what's going to happen as far as what breaths they're going to get to do and all that kind of stuff, and then they start taking you through the breathing pattern and it's like four breaths in through you know, no, it breathe in on the four breath, like not four breaths to the count of four on your nose. You hold it for four, you breathe out before you hold, then breathe in, breathe out, okay, and I'm not going to go through the whole process because they did it and I don't really know the whole process. Yep, um, but then they take you, um, on a bit of a journey with healing your inner child, right, and there were certain parts of it, and I'm sitting there and I'm going, okay, but the breathing almost takes you into a subconscious state of mind.
Speaker 1:Right, so you're definitely conscious, but it's almost subconscious state of mind and they tell you to picture your child, your inner child, who is you as a younger child? Right Now I don't, and for a lot of my friends and family they know that I don't really remember my childhood at all. Right, and it's not okay. Now, to my knowledge, it's not because of anything traumatic or anything like that. I just don't remember it.
Speaker 2:I've just said okay, that's too busy playing in the gardens.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I don't know I've got a great life. Now I don't need to go back and regress. I don't know what the fuck I was doing then, right, yeah, but I know what that child looked like because I've got photos of him, right. So when they said, look, you know, go back to your inner child, blah, blah, blah and so on and so forth, and whatever instructions they were giving, I could picture this child and I said, what are they doing? So I kind of looked at this child, which was me, and he was playing with this like wooden truck, right, that was like those wooden trucks that had the shapes, right, and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2:And he was playing with it, but he was playing with it by himself.
Speaker 1:Okay, all right, and I'm sitting there and I'm going like, and they're going, what are you doing there? And they were taking you through different stages and stuff like that, and they were basically asking you to welcome him. And there was a stage there where, basically, I could clearly see him standing over me, right, and it was just like I don't want to go into it because I'll get emotional right because it was very emotional.
Speaker 1:But then there were some moments in it where I sat there and I really went like and especially after I was crying, like I was actually sobbing throughout, like there was a part I was actually sobbing throughout.
Speaker 2:There was a part of it where they were asking you to You're almost releasing your, your inner child, inner child, yeah.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and you're basically asking them to help you heal now pretty much, yeah, definitely. And again, I don't know the whole part of it.
Speaker 2:But what it has done. Everybody in there would have had different stories as well.
Speaker 1:They've all had different reactions and different emotions, different things, so it was all different for everyone. Yep um, but, like I said, I just for myself and and I'm not going to speak on behalf of miami so how far away from everybody were you?
Speaker 2:were you in your own little area, in your own space, on your own yoga mat?
Speaker 1:okay, as such, right um, but like there was a memory that flashed to myself right, um, and like, as I think about it more, there are more memories that are sort of coming which is good yeah but the thing is that there was, as a child, my younger sister couldn't say my name properly. All right, in a good way or a bad way no, in in a good way right so the way she used to say it right and I'm not going to mention it on here my younger sister.
Speaker 1:Okay, yeah, right, um, so she couldn't say it properly. So she used to say it in a certain way, because my name's matthew, right, but she used to say that sounded something similar, right, but it wasn't, and so that ended up being. My whole family thought that was hysterical when she said it when she was younger, so that then became my nickname, okay, and it was my nickname throughout my whole life for a while there right now, how do you feel about that? My mom. It was fun.
Speaker 2:Okay, actually, it used to annoy you, but she right, okay you weren't offended by it, then no, no, no, it wasn't offended, but no but it was.
Speaker 1:It was my nickname, it's just what they used to say, okay, and, but it hasn't been in my mind in eternity, so there's no way or no reason for it to come up right. So for this to come out of this moment, there's some significance to it. Yeah, there's trigger points, and so it's sort of making me go down a path of thinking well, if this has unlocked this, what else is there that I actually need to unlock to?
Speaker 2:heal, but you're also focusing on yourself, which you don't necessarily do. I don't do that. I know most people don't. That's what I'm saying. So these things are very, very poignant to self-healing, like you said, because they make you start analysing your whole self and we forget about our youth and our young versions of ourselves. Yeah, and they can be great memories. They could be bad memories.
Speaker 1:They could be.
Speaker 2:But you need to cleanse yourself from them or you need to reinvent your mind.
Speaker 1:Well, some of the stuff that they talked about was shame, right as an inner child of shame. Yeah, it was one of the emotions that they talked through.
Speaker 2:So how long would they let you dwell on these things for before they moved on? I don't know it wasn't long, I don't think. But did it flow naturally from one to the other?
Speaker 1:Well, they said, like you know, feelings of love, feelings of shame feelings of loss, feelings of such and such. It was up to you to focus on which one it was up to you which one you Right, and then she just correlated the emotions, because you're talking about probably about 60, 70 people in the room on the yoga mats, so she sort of would go through it.
Speaker 2:But was it all quiet? It was very quiet.
Speaker 1:No music playing Music, okay, yeah, but breath through the hole the guy that was in there helping her, and again I wish I had his name?
Speaker 2:Did you have your eyes closed, do you remember? Okay, so you were just literally in your own world.
Speaker 1:You were in a subconscious state. Yeah, okay, but he was taking the whole time. He had his own mic and he would have his breath work. And then the other girl that was in there, she was taking through emotions.
Speaker 2:So there was sounds of crying, so you had three different people playing the parts Three different people orchestrating this event. Okay, it's just like a little play on words.
Speaker 1:It was and it was a session, a proper healing session.
Speaker 2:And how long?
Speaker 1:was this session for About 45 minutes to an hour.
Speaker 2:Okay, cool Right.
Speaker 1:But then like there was, like it was just it was changing, but it's put up so many questions for me, that's something psychologists should use.
Speaker 2:They should use that sort of teaching, I think.
Speaker 1:Now, apart from the actual emotional side and this is why I kind of want to delve deeper because, as I was laying there when we're going through these things, there was also physical pain. So I was feeling and yes, I'd done a yoga session earlier, but I was actually feeling my hips and like just around sort of the top end of my buttocks and my hips, there was burning, physical pain.
Speaker 1:So I know I'm smiling and laughing because my mind is now going off, I know, but this is, and this is where I'm actually now sitting there thinking is there trauma that I need to unpack?
Speaker 2:No, I think you're actually having a baby. I'm definitely not.
Speaker 1:But this is where okay, so you're 100% right in the same feeling, because this is where I was actually wiggling my legs, wiggling my knees, my back, my hips, trying to get out of that uncomfortable position which was just laying flat on a floor but it wasn't uncomfortable birth.
Speaker 2:Maybe you you felt that when you were being delivered. Maybe maybe, maybe, I don't know.
Speaker 1:I honestly don't know. But this is and this is why I need to unpack it further with michelle um dieball and her website and her team a thousand paths, because it was fucking insane. Now I just want to go back one second, because there is one lesson that I actually took out of it and I think for all of our listeners right and for all of my friends, I'm going to be passing this lesson on for a long time. Right, there is michelle, I'm not michelle, sorry. Caitlyn vincent um caitlyn, caitlyn, caitlyn vincent. Yeah, caitlyn vincent, right again. Look up her. You go girl and you go bro. Right, caitlin Vincent, caitlin, caitlin, caitlin Vincent. Yeah, caitlin Vincent. Right Again, look up her YouGoGirl and YouGoBro website. But she taught us this one thing, and I don't know why. I'm a 53-year-old man, I don't know why it hasn't happened to me or why I haven't actually thought about it previously.
Speaker 2:I haven't thought about it, yeah.
Speaker 1:But there is something you're allowed to say and it's no right and it doesn't need any justification. Justification any further, infant. If it's not serving you, well, right, you're actually allowed to say no right to things. Right. Whether it be somebody asking you to go somewhere, to do something that you just don't feel in your gut is right for you, you're allowed to say no. And if somebody gets unhappy, pissed off, that's their emotion. That's not for you to actually make them feel comfortable. Because, and look, I don't think. And I was chatting with some of the guys last night and they said that doesn't sit well with me. No, I can't say no. And some of the people were with last night and we'll go into last night soon but they said I'm a people pleaser, I can't say no.
Speaker 2:And this is exactly right. When you're that sort of like type of person personality. You're very empathetic, you're very much a people pleaser. Like you said, it's innate into your bloodstream that you will always do what you can to help other people first.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but how about you?
Speaker 2:And this is exactly right. Well, I'm the same as well.
Speaker 1:Yeah, no, but I mean you, but I mean you yourself.
Speaker 2:How about yourself Exactly? We don't give ourselves time.
Speaker 1:Because you're saying yes to everything. Right, and yes, I'll be there.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but it might be at the expense of your energy and this is your personal slave and our friend Anne from the club she's like that, she's going through her own personal battles.
Speaker 2:at the moment she's a beautiful, beautiful lady and you know she puts her heart and soul into everybody. Even though she's got personal issues and health issues at the moment of herself, she's still focusing on other people and we keep on saying to her you've got to love yourself and you've got to be able to put yourself first, because you'll never heal properly otherwise.
Speaker 1:So no is the one lesson I would love everyone to take out of this.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:And just yeah, fuck it quite honestly, but yeah, All right, honestly, but yeah, all right, so that's enough. That's good. I'm glad you enjoyed it and I'm glad great day um, like yoga and wellness festival, so that's a good birthday treat, isn't it? I suppose, yeah, anybody's struggling to find treats or birthdays christmas is because there's something there for everyone as well, like, literally, you can buy gift cards or whatever I would imagine so, but like the thing is that, like there's, there's two days of this thing Now, I only went to one day right Now.
Speaker 1:Retrospectively I'm going to both days next year, but was it?
Speaker 2:the same again.
Speaker 1:No, no, no, they're different sessions. Oh well, there you go. Today's sessions were like yoga dreaming there was like a line of arms. Was Miami going to this one?
Speaker 2:No, no, okay. Is it the same cover the cost or is it separate days?
Speaker 1:no, there's, it's like it's. It was like 135 if you did the both day pass.
Speaker 2:That's a great.
Speaker 1:So that's a set there and I get like, but next time I'm doing both days, so maybe you can buy all of us.
Speaker 2:Yep, yeah, maybe we should all go. Yeah, we can all learn.
Speaker 1:But I'm definitely next time around gonna lock in a whole weekend and what other people ask me for on the Sunday or the other day that it's on.
Speaker 2:I'm just going to say no, can I ask what you're going to buy prior to going into this next session? Fuck you, probably yoga pants.
Speaker 1:Exactly, I was going to say are you going to buy these yoga pants Because I'm going to go and sign up for yoga? So there's a yoga in my local area called Nin Yoga and I literally have gone through some of the classes since being there yesterday. And, um, I didn't get to go to any of her sessions, but she was delightful. She's the one of the ladies that I bought my um, my yoga bolster, from um, what's a yoga bolster? Man? It's, oh, it's so cool. It's a big bolster. It has a handle on the end. So what is a bolster?
Speaker 2:so you can sit on.
Speaker 1:No, you can sit on it.
Speaker 2:You can use it through different poses and throughout the yoga session.
Speaker 1:Pillows a big pillow, yeah, but it's got like a handle on the end, so my balance ain't great, all right. So for yoga, yeah, a lot of people have the yoga blocks, which we now have as well, because because miami bought the blocks okay matt will have his own store there this time. I told you I'm having a fucking old retreat, um, but but yeah, so anyway, I'm definitely doing the two-day next week enjoyed yourself we definitely did and that was definitely so what else did we do, dave what?
Speaker 2:else did we do? Yesterday? My day was big, your day was huge. What?
Speaker 1:did, we do last night.
Speaker 2:Well, we met up with our friend sammy. Yay, it was sammy's birthday.
Speaker 1:Well, it's going to be her birthday on monday so it is always a delight to meet up with sammy, because she is a fucking like. We met sammy through fanny yeah right, who you'd know from dick, and fanny yeah um, and she.
Speaker 2:We met her and we gelled with her straight away.
Speaker 1:Yeah, she's, she's just a beautiful human. Yeah, right, like a lot of um people sorry, dick and fanny's, because Dick and Franny are both amazing people.
Speaker 2:Well, yeah all our friends are.
Speaker 1:So, yeah, they are, they really are, but like so we met up with her Yep and we instantly clicked. So we love her, so any opportunity we get to catch up.
Speaker 2:So we went out to Newtown, which is in Sydney area. Yep, we went to the Bank Hotel, yep Right, we Went to the bank hotel, yep Right, had a drink. But she invited like 12 friends, didn't she? Yep, yep, Three of them couldn't come because, obviously, having COVID.
Speaker 1:They haven't been well COVID and flu and all that. So she said, no, you can't come, yep.
Speaker 2:So what was the whole purpose of this get together, apart from that?
Speaker 1:So this was Sammy, who is 43 on Monday.
Speaker 2:Yep, it was her first birthday so, dave, let's explain that for our listeners. Yep, so sammy, her whole life um has celebrated her birthday on the 24th of may of may right so that's the only day that she's ever known yeah, a few days, a few years ago, she got told by her so-called biological mother, which again, yeah, this is her words, her words questionable, and she won't mind us saying that.
Speaker 1:You know that she was actually born on the 16th of may, right?
Speaker 2:what the fuck I think it changed to another day as well, after that as well, but then she's found out that she did some more digging.
Speaker 1:she wanted to get some more digging, so she actually got a birth certificate and all that kind of stuff and she actually found out that she's born on the 4th. The 4th no the 5th the 6th, the 6th, whatever day, monday is.
Speaker 2:No 5th, 5th, 5th of May so that's actually officially tomorrow, right?
Speaker 1:So she's now celebrating. She's taken it in a stride.
Speaker 2:She's taken it in a stride. She was having a great time last night, wasn't she?
Speaker 1:And she decided well, fuck it, I'm going to celebrate my birthday. So, technically, this is going to be her very first birthday, her first real birthday. So happy first birthday to Sammy From us all. But what did we do? We, we do. We went to the Bank Hotel, yeah, which is a great bar, great hotel.
Speaker 2:Now, if you've never been to Newtown, it's a very cosmopolitan.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it used to be a big lesbian bar. That's all the people used to go there. But now everyone goes there because it's such a cool bar and all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 2:It's a cool vibe and stuff. It is a great vibe.
Speaker 1:It's got an upstairs we Great food.
Speaker 2:We'll talk about food later on, won't?
Speaker 1:we. We've eaten food from there before right, we have yeah, but we met some awesome people that again through, I guess Dick and Fanny. Essentially yeah, but they were Sammy's friends. So, my God, her friend the supermodel.
Speaker 2:Sammy's friend. Yeah, Kylie, oh my God.
Speaker 1:Oh my God, yeah, kylie. Oh my god, oh my god, yeah, she is. We've seen this woman walking with sammy and I went oh my god how tall she is. She's like six foot one, six foot but six foot right, but just glamour, personified, just beautiful model material, jessica roe sort of style right, I can't believe her age.
Speaker 2:I didn't know. She's just got a 20 year old son. Yes, she had 20 something years on, yeah, and I was like holy fuck, yeah, she's just, she's just beautiful, and then she's also a fucking amazing person with so much fun.
Speaker 1:Yeah, good, dance like was having a ball and just really enjoying being herself. Right, because she came out late didn't she as well? Yeah, chatting to everyone and all that kind of stuff. Um, but just an absolutely human, amazing human, yep, um, but just gorgeous. I don't think she gets how pretty she is either. I don't think. I don't think she just gets how gorgeous she actually is either, because, like, because she is a stunner, she's definitely holy, she's up there with the sort of a-list models.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah she's just beautiful.
Speaker 1:I sat there and I, and I don't think she gets it, which is again a shame, but at the same time it's not she's modest, you know, because she's like totally modest she was just lovely, absolutely delightful as a human. And then we met trev, who's um sammy's ex-husband. Yeah, pre pre-semi becoming a lesbian, yeah, and he was, I thought he was fantastic.
Speaker 2:he was a bit shy at first, which is understandable.
Speaker 1:Right, because he didn't know everyone Right, but he was fucking funny. He was awesome, I got along with him like a house on fire. I think he's a top bloke, yeah, and just a really nice guy. Quite good looking too, just saying you won't be able to turn him?
Speaker 2:I don't think.
Speaker 1:No, no, no. If they come to me and they want something, something, I'll give them something something More like if they come on you.
Speaker 2:Well, they can come on me, in me, out me over me, but we also had other friends, but he was awesome as well.
Speaker 1:And then I had Joel. We met Joel, who was another lovely guy that Sammy worked with as well, who again didn't get to chat to him much but has something, because it was hard, because we were on two different tables.
Speaker 2:Weren't we sitting close by?
Speaker 1:yeah, sitting close by, but it was hard, conversations were but he was for the, for the little bits of chat that we had. He was again a really nice yep, decent human well arranged. I'm good look, another good looking guy as well, quite a good looking guy. Um, um, and then we had tina, tina, tina, who was there, and she had her son with her as well, and I can't remember.
Speaker 2:We know his name begins with D. It starts with a D, but I can't remember.
Speaker 1:He was a really polite, friendly kid. But he wanted to come out because it was Sammy's birthday. Yeah he wanted to come out and celebrate Sammy's birthday with her as well, which was great, and Tina, again, another gorgeous woman. Yeah, it was just like I didn't think she would be able to, but I think the key to being what we think is beautiful is your confidence.
Speaker 2:Yeah, your personality type and just being a genuinely nice human. Yeah, and Sammy has managed to do that.
Speaker 1:She's surrounded herself with really good people, and she said that to us last night. She said she's in the happiest place she's ever been. She's the happiest place she's been in her life, which is amazing to see.
Speaker 2:And this is it. I mean, you get to a point in your life where you think, okay, what can I do better? But if you've got people around you that you're happy with, then that's all you need. Yep, that's all you life. You know what?
Speaker 1:I mean so we went down and we had dinner at the bank hotel. Yep, now we looked at the menu. We'd been to the bank hotel before and we looked at the menu and we kind of went ah, this is different than it used to be. Well, sort of, I mean the option was different, but so we ordered a few things off the menu and stuff like that. We ordered, like the beef skewers and the flatbread.
Speaker 2:It's almost like the appetizer sort of thing, but they come out in there. It's all like there's enough to share. It's a share plate.
Speaker 1:The cauliflower type thing and all that comes out. So we ordered lots of food, a few things a burrata and all that right. And it was sensational Like every single bit of food that got delivered to the table was fucking sensational right now. Sammy was in charge of ordering for her and her ex-husband that right. So she went onto the app and she'd been on the app earlier but couldn't work it out right, um, and so she pressed order on whatever she thought she'd ordered right. And next minute they bought over a jug of beer. She's gone, huh. And they went. Well, yeah, sammy, she didn't realise that was still in the order from the last time that she'd ordered right. So, anyway, so they've got okay cool, paid for it. Might as well drink it right. So they were drinking their beers and all that kind of stuff, and then next minute her entree turned up. What was her entree? Dave?
Speaker 2:I can't remember what did she order? A scallop Scallops, that's right, scallops.
Speaker 1:Now on the picture. To be fair to her, the picture showed three scallops on a plate. However, in the text it said one piece. Bring a single he said you've ordered a scallop and she's going a scallop and she looked at it she looked and think of what the fuck a scallop.
Speaker 2:And then I got worried that that's all she'd actually ordered and I thought oh god, you know so then I looked on the menu and I went no, it definitely says one piece um so she laughed about that.
Speaker 1:That was a bit comical, right? Did she enjoy it though? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't know how much can you taste when you're eating one scallop, I know right, but I think she said it was nice. Okay, but it looked nice enough. But then, sitting there, her main came up, which was the barramundi Yep, and it was really nice. Now, her and her ex, they get along like a house on fire still, because, like, the only reason they probably separated is because she likes girls.
Speaker 2:Yeah, um right um.
Speaker 1:So therefore, like you know, um, they've, they've. There's zero animosity there because they're both top humans, right, um, but like her main come, but he was picking at her food and all that kind of stuff and sharing stuff across the table, like we were throwing like bits of freaking hang on, not throwing bits of bread, but offering it was offering bits of bread and chips and all that kind of stuff that was on the table. So he was picking along and he had these barramundi, she had her barramundi and eating little bits of it and he was tasting it and that and sitting there and going where's his steak? Because she had actually said did anyone order the steak? And none of us ordered the steak. Oh, it didn't give us the option to say medium, well done, how you'd like it cooked, or anything like that. So she spoke to one of the staff members, didn't?
Speaker 1:she, so she spoke to one of the staff and she said I've ordered a steak but it didn't give me the options. And she said oh, normally it does. She said what did you order? And she said I'll go and tell them how you want it cooked. So the staff member went and told the kitchen supposedly how they wanted it cooked, and all that.
Speaker 2:We carried on eating, drinking, talking.
Speaker 1:And then about a half an hour later.
Speaker 2:It was literally a long time after.
Speaker 1:Yeah, trevor said I still haven't got my steak.
Speaker 2:And he said I wasn't hungry at that point. Yeah, by where's?
Speaker 1:my fucking still haven't got my steak right. And he said I wasn't hungry at that point. Yeah, by that stage he wasn't hungry because he'd already picked everyone else's food. And so he called over this young guy who was again super helpful, right. He went back to the kitchen. He says where's the steak? Blah, blah, blah. And so they've looked. And then she's come back over and he's gone.
Speaker 2:Oh, they've forgotten are you sure you've ordered?
Speaker 1:he said he said I'm so sorry they've forgotten about it. We'll do it now. We'll do it now.
Speaker 2:Then she said don't worry, I don't want it because I'll have a refund.
Speaker 1:Can we just get a refund instead?
Speaker 2:And he said okay, that's fine, We'll give it to the staff members to eat because we don't want to waste the food. So they were really good about it, weren't they? Yeah?
Speaker 1:And then so he's gone. Have you got? He said, okay, well, just show me and we'll organise a refund. Well, she went into the app. There was no steak there. She didn't order it.
Speaker 2:And in the meantime they cook the steak for the staff.
Speaker 1:They cook the steak for the staff, so they got to eat it anyway. But poor Trev sitting there going hungry no, he wasn't going hungry, but it was fucking hysterical because then he was sitting there going you invite me to your birthday birthday. Then don't even order my dinner for me. It's given him heaps, and so we're telling him about how good the kebab shop was down the road and stuff like that.
Speaker 1:Yeah but we, that was fun, that was a lot of fun. Yeah, yeah. But then we went down to the imperial yep, watched um a drag show.
Speaker 2:But well before we went down, I went to the toilet with sam, I remember, and there was an incident in the male toilets where the two, um the two, cubicles.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't know what happened, so I went in there and I walked in, I didn't realize the urinals were to the right hand side as you walk in the urinals for anyone speaks australian and basically, um, the two cubicles sorry, two cubicles were both closed, so there's obviously something in there. But there was another guy stood outside but he was having a direct chat with one of the other people inside one of them, okay, and the other one was having a direct chat with the other person inside as well, so it was like a three-way conversation happening in the toilets, okay and then he then went outside.
Speaker 2:The guy stood outside, went outside and I carried on pissing and you know, just looking around seeing who else is in there as you do and um, two other guys came in, went to have a pee and everything else, then walk out, and I came out and then obviously sammy hadn't finished and she came out after me. Then she said when she went back out the guy was outside there and he asked her if she was involved with the the toilets. I think, okay, it was like it was bizarre. I'll have to correlate and see what sammy was talking about, but the way it went was was she involved with what's happening in the toilets, in the male's toilets, and what was happening in the toilets?
Speaker 1:I don't know no one knows.
Speaker 2:No, because it was closed and they were still there when I left, okay, and I know there was no glory holes because I had used those bathrooms earlier. Oh, had you yeah.
Speaker 1:No, well, no toilet. But I noticed and I needed a big fart. And you know when you need a big fart, you're not sure whether it's a fart or not. So I thought, oh, you know, better better be safe than sorry. Yeah, um, but yeah, so, but yeah, so there was like okay, no glory holes in there.
Speaker 2:I thought maybe it might be no, no, no, definitely not they were doing something in there because they were very well they were doing. They were very verbal okay but not in a high pitch, or you know just having chats? Yeah, okay, I assume they knew each other.
Speaker 1:Maybe, maybe, or maybe they didn't maybe they were getting to know, maybe they met each other behind closed doors.
Speaker 2:Maybe, maybe, maybe. This is where the relationship starts, matt the dating apps, and that's what we're gonna talk.
Speaker 1:I think we're gonna talk about relationships, because I hope so. We'll just talk about everything else. Anyway, I know right, but you go on, that's all right.
Speaker 2:Yes, all right, but we went from there to the Imperial Imperial, yeah, watched the drag show, had some drinks.
Speaker 1:It was good fun. There had a dance.
Speaker 2:I love it down there.
Speaker 1:I love it down there. The vibe is always so good. Yeah, got a really good table sitting at the front there, cleared the dance floor and all that waited and waited drank more tried to listen to each other's conversations over the sound of everything else, but it was fun. It was fun, you got up, and you got up and danced.
Speaker 2:There was lots of conversations, but on the way out, we decided to have some photographs taken, didn't we?
Speaker 1:oh yeah, we took we took, you know, the photo booth, photo booth, right, it was funny it was five of us. Five of us in the tiny little photo booth.
Speaker 2:And it was Sammy's birthday, yep, and she wanted the photographs as memories, yep, and tell everybody what happened with the photographs, matthew.
Speaker 1:Well, five of us cramped into this, right Yep. Now Sammy's head's coming in from the side, right Yep. So she was like the furthest away, wasn't she the furthest away? And everyone's looking at where the frigging photo screen is. I said no, no, you can look up here where it says look here, right. So, first photo we could see all our triple chins, right. Second photo yeah, we could actually see our heads. Well, when I say our heads, the birthday girl yeah.
Speaker 1:Literally had her chin in the frigging photo right. Pretty much nothing else, right, except for the last photo where she decided she was going to stick her tongue out in the photo. Well, I know why she a lesbian um, because that's a tongue it looks like a cock. She stuck her tongue in there.
Speaker 1:In the photo there's no picture of her face there's no picture of her face for context or anything at all. It just looks like this giant schlong. Um, come out in the kylie's face. It's just fucking. We were dying when the photo came out. We're sitting there pissing ourselves, laughing, um, but yeah. So a fun night was ensued. And then when we left.
Speaker 2:Now. This is quite bizarre, because last time you and I went to that that place, we end up talking to a guy around the same place, we end up talking to those other people.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I forgot about that. Yeah, it's almost like you cross the road and there's people, always stood there, but you always get into a conversation with strangers yeah, so there was a couple of older ladies, um, that were actually basically trying to and they were cool, cool, they were fun, right they?
Speaker 2:had been dancing.
Speaker 1:They were in the Imperial as well, right, the Imperial where Priscilla was filmed, but one had a pair of sparkly boots, so I complimented it on her sparkly boots, so that sort of sparked a conversation. And she was going. We were trying to work out what the situation is here. She said we're trying to work out whether Sammy was my sister, um, and whether you were his wife and this and that. And we were sitting there going. Well, you got it all wrong, I said because, like I said, me and Dave are friends with benefits. I said none of us are in a relationship with each other. I said Fanny is in a relationship with somebody that's home. She said, oh, we thought you two might have been married and we're sitting there going. Oh no, she's a girl. I don't like girls, yuck Right. And then they were going. But you two look like brother and sister. And then she's sitting there going. We thought that you two were like each other's wing women and all this kind of stuff.
Speaker 2:It just goes to show you what people analyze.
Speaker 1:People were actually sort of making this whole story up in their heads about it and they got nothing right. But it was like but that was fun as well, but it was a fun conversation it was a fun conversation and stuff like that as well.
Speaker 1:So that was lots and lots of fun. We love talking to random strangers? Of course we do. Yeah, some of the young girls thought that me and Sammy were together and we said no, yuck, girls, boys blech. And then she sat there and said I'm a lesbian and we're going. Are you? Are you but part of the?
Speaker 2:conversation we also had. This is where this is going to lead on to the next segment, hopefully, is. Basically, I questioned Sammy and asked her what the dating apps are like for girls. Oh yeah, so this is why we went down this path, and she then explained to us or she showed us, didn't she? The platform? I don't know what it was called. She then explained to us, um, or she showed us and she the the platform. I don't know what it was called. I can't remember she said it was. I don't know what it was called, but it's like their equivalent of gaydar, mass divers or something I don't know. I don't know um, but she showed us and matt, and I've never sort of looked at these I haven't looked at a lesbian dating app.
Speaker 2:We don't need to go as a lesbian what we sort of analyzed was it's very similar to normal dating apps in terms of yeah, like a swipe left, swipe right, swipe left, right, but if you go on to grinder for guys, it's just.
Speaker 2:It's like the whole page is full of men, pictures of like, either profile pictures, blank profile pictures or pictures of people you know, inanimate objects, whatever, but there's like you have to click on it to open up the actual narrative or to see who that person is if there's any correlation, yeah, which you do have to click on grinder to see who they are, and if there's any that's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2:But there is. You can see the main picture straight away and the main picture with the narrative and a little narrative and and a swipe left, swipe right and all that kind of stuff straight away. But then we ask them if they do send.
Speaker 1:Well, because okay because for any gay men that listen, dick pics are just second nature for us, right? Or ass pics or whatever. Yeah, ass pics, hole pics, all kinds of pics. Right, you'll say hey, and then you'll go got any pics, and you might mean a face pic or something like that but all of a sudden you're getting bombarded with dick pics and ass pics and that's not a bad thing.
Speaker 2:Sometimes you just get some dick pics straight away. Sometimes you just get a dick pic's ass.
Speaker 1:A whole pic straight away. You don't even get a hey.
Speaker 2:So I thought of thinking about it. Can I look at?
Speaker 1:your face. And then I thought does that happen in the lesbian world? So we asked the question and no, they don't send vag pics. They don't send titty pics.
Speaker 2:They don that. There's probably some that do. Yeah, but it's not the main thing, but it's not the pro. They look at the pictures and the narrative and, like sammy was saying, sammy's got some beautiful pictures on the country, yeah, it's gorgeous, right, and she didn't choose to have the most glorious picture of her on there because people said to her. Well, you look too feminine for me she looks too, femme, and it's like what the fuck?
Speaker 1:you know, I mean yeah correct.
Speaker 2:So it's very bizarre from our perspective as gay guys to listen to that and we've always wanted to know these sort of things. So we will try and get sammy and um and carly carly to do a podcast with us and we'll get them to do their take on. We'll do like boy girl, boy girl sort of questions and answers to them, and I think that would be a fun thing to do yeah, because it's just like.
Speaker 1:It's just like it's a different world and we don't get it. So, yeah, we don't get it. So the thing is, it is a different world and it's really intriguing for me because again now I want to know more about the female apps and all that kind of stuff as well. Which, again, I'm guessing our listeners do as well. Yeah for sure. Because we were going to have my sister on, but she hasn't been on a lesbian app ever, no, like, not for a long time anyway. No, exactly as well. So yeah, so I think.
Speaker 1:Well, I don't know what you're thinking about it, because obviously this Well, yeah, I'm thinking that that's probably it for this episode and the stuff that we've actually prepped for this episode what we'll do.
Speaker 2:We'll do another one, so we'll do a second part. We'll continue with this one in the next conversation. So we'll be talking about relationships apps and dating apps and stuff like that. We've already done something very similar, but this is a different take on different take on this is. This is just mainstream. This is talking about, you know, not just the gay world. It's talking about everybody's, like you know. Uh, analogy bizarre facts.
Speaker 1:Yeah, bizarre facts.
Speaker 2:And we've we've got some very, very bizarre facts in terms of like um dating and also people that may have like come to a demise from different activities that they've got involved with yeah, yeah. Yeah, um, and then we'll do the letter of the day. We'll carry on with the podcast. It'll be a two-part one, so we'll leave for now. Um, I hope you've enjoyed this part of the segment, because I have it's been quite a lot been a great chat, but um, but definitely check out the wellness thing.
Speaker 1:I think that's a very, very like the yoga and wellness um festival again on instagram and all your socials and stuff like that. But I cannot recommend a thousand past. Highly enough um caitlin vincent. Um, highly enough, sam henderson. Like, literally, if you go to the wellness and um health, yoga and health festival, they'll probably have all the links to those guys.
Speaker 2:I mean you got me sort of like intrigued and inspired, because I mean, again, I've, I've heard it's like I was asking about reiki last night. I mean I've heard it so many times and I was talking to fanny in the car and I was, because she has reiki and again my ex-wife, her mother, used to have reiki all the time and I don't know what my perception of reiki was.
Speaker 2:I just thought it was like you go into a room and they they move like sand around not reiking, you know. I mean, I thought they were. I thought it was like a spiritual thing where they were moving objects around and you meditate and stuff like that.
Speaker 1:It's all energy flows and things like that. That's what I'm saying, but again and again I think, especially some of the sessions yesterday I think you would have really benefited from it. I will look into it definitely.
Speaker 2:Again I mean for me, yoga and stuff has always been physical side to me and I don't think I could do the physical thing you can back. You'll be surprised. Don't forget my back injury.
Speaker 1:The beauty, no, but the beauty of this is that and the beauty of every single instructor said like here's some basic child poses. The child poses, this is this. If this is too much for you, you do it at your level, right? There was no expectation. Like me and miami, we're fucking. I'm an expert now, clearly, because I've done two sessions.
Speaker 2:However.
Speaker 1:I definitely was not an expert by any standard. So the thing is that we were looking at people and they were standing up on their shoulders and they were doing all this stuff and I'm sitting there going, oh my God, now these are people that have been doing it for years. So they made it very clear do not compare yourself to anyone in this room. You do it your way. You do it in a way that works for you. That's going to give you benefit, right? So the thing is that the stretching the, the like, like I said today, I feel fucking fit, but I feel broken. Everything's aching. Um, this is old age, but this is the thing. If I had been doing this for a while, maybe I wouldn't feel this way, because I know when you, if you don't use it, you lose it right.
Speaker 2:So did they give you a uh projective, like forecast of how long things take to you to be?
Speaker 1:no, and I know that's the kind of thing you want. You want analyticals, yeah, um, but yeah, no, they don't give you that because I think everyone takes learning at their own pace, right, okay, and that's why I'm going to go on like I'm going to go up to nin yoga at saint mary's, because that's only just up the road from me, right, because they have a session. And again, if you, go.
Speaker 2:Do they ever have this, like all male ones?
Speaker 1:yeah, they do yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, so that might be saying that I'd be more. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:Because I know women are very much involved with yoga and stuff.
Speaker 1:but again from a perspective, oh, you're going to be surprised, but even at Nin Yoga, like at St Mary's, if you go onto her website, they've got a 30 days of unlimited classes for $89.
Speaker 2:Okay so that's nothing but is it like an all-male one there's. You want to go there and perv as well.
Speaker 1:You want to go there just to perv? No, I don't, but anyway, all right, we're going to wrap up this session yeah, all right, and we will come back to part two or a continuation.
Speaker 2:We won't call it part one, part two. We'll publish them one after the other. We'll put them together when we publish them.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, yeah, they'll be in order. Part one part two, you know I mean. So we'll see, we'll see what they get called. But um, yeah, we know that ai generates my titles now, because if you are a listener then you know. Hopefully you'll get the gist of it all yeah and um yeah, but we hope you've enjoyed today I definitely have.
Speaker 1:Yep. So, um, thank you and have a blessed day. Namaste, namaste, bye, all right, bye. That's a wrap from us.
