Welcome to the Tony and Ryan podcast. My name is Ryan. This is Dr. Arthur Tony Lodge. Sorry we're keeping you up, mate.
Sorry. Sorry, I just got hit by a Zed. I'm okay.
Hit by a Zed? I haven't heard that before.
Really?
Yeah.
Oh, really? My whole family says that.
Although I do say, oh, when you do it like off-catching Zs.
Oh, nah, I wouldn't say that.
Okay.
No?
Well, that's the difference between growing up on the East Coast and the West Coast of Australia, ladies and gentlemen.
Yeah, we finally nailed it. We finally figured out what the difference is.
Let's call Megan, who is in San Jose.
San Jose.
San Jose.
San Jose.
It's a long ring in the U.S., isn't it?
Hello? Megan! It's Tony and Ryan. How US, isn't it? Hello?
Megan!
It's Tony and Ryan.
How are you doing?
Oh, I'm good.
Hi.
Good, and you guys?
Yeah, we're good.
What have we caught you doing?
What are you doing, Megan?
I just got off work.
I'm a special education teacher.
Oh, so finish for the day, hump day,
so you've only got two days till the weekend.
So you're basically there already.
It's all over. Basically pour yourself a weekend. So basically, they're already.
It's all over.
Basically, pull yourself a cocktail.
I mean, basically.
Now, just to settle the record and to add to our tally,
are you a Megan, Megan, Mogan? Megan, Mogan, Megan.
Where do you land?
This is really funny because you asked me this at the LA meetup.
Because we have to be sure.
Yeah, yeah.
Honestly, the amount of times
we just back into Megan and people go, that's
definitely not it.
It's Megan.
Megan. And does that mean
you drove from San Jose to Los Angeles?
Yes,
I did. I don't know if you remember my
dog, Noodles, who is an Australian
shepherd. Yes! Sorry, it all
makes sense now because we do not
forget an Australian dog
overseas. And I do not forget a hot California
girl. Yeah, that is also true.
That is also true.
Well, Megan... He jumped up
and gave y'all cookies. Oh, we were
missing our dogs at that time as well.
It was our last stop.
Megan, will you approve today's episode?
Yes, of course. Legend. Megan, will you approve today's episode? Yes, of course.
Woo-hoo!
Legend.
Hi, I'm Megan from San Jose and I approve this podcast.
All right, coming up today.
When have you, you, you Ryan and you listening,
when do you feel like you've been like a bit set up to fail?
You know, you've really tried something and then you've gone,
oh, well, that's obviously not going to help things along.
Yeah, I feel like every year I want to lose weight
and then on January 1 I want to lose weight and then
on January 1 I wake up hungover and wouldn't you know it,
there's KFC, Macca's, Red Rooster all ready to go.
Yeah.
And I go, you don't want me to succeed.
Yeah.
Or like.
I hold you personally responsible for being in business.
Or when you like set yourself up to fail because you go,
I'll start that on Monday when Monday is like statistically
the worst day to start something.
Yeah.
Yeah, right.
Like so you're better off like kind of just like working something
into your current routine rather than being like, oh,
I'll do that on Monday.
Yeah.
Yep.
Okay.
We'll get to that soon.
Real positive stuff today.
Yeah, hot stuff.
Hot stuff.
All right.
Put yourself in this situation.
Okay.
You're off somewhere with a friend and you're going
to pick them up on the way.
What's the dress code?
Like what's the vibe?
Like is it like are we dressing cute?
Is it just active wear?
Let's say we're doing a lunch.
Fancy lunch?
No, just a casual lunch.
Or just like a late brunch.
Yeah, like a late brunch.
Let's say a brunch.
You could do like a platform sneaker and like cute active wear kind of vibe.
Oh, nice.
Okay.
Is my hair done?
It's like a cute messy bun.
Nice.
Am I driving?
No, you're getting picked up.
Oh, okay.
So I don't have to worry about parking.
Nice.
The other person says they're picking you up at 10 a.m.
Perfect.
So I'm out the front at 9.45.
Now we, the two of us.m. Perfect. So I'm out the front at 9.45. Now we, the two of us.
You and me.
Best friends.
We debated, but as we were getting to know each other,
this was like a point of contention because I always felt guilty
that when I say I'd pick you up at 10, I'd rock up at 5 past 10
and Tony's like been waiting outside for 20 minutes.
Yeah.
So I'd feel really bad.
I'm like, hey, all good.
I'll just text you when I'm here.
You don't have to come down and you go, no, but what if you're here on time
and I'm not here?
Then you get mad and I was like, well.
Well, I don't want to make you wait.
Yeah.
But you've forgotten a step in this.
The step before we got to the I'll be there at 10 was Ryan, yeah,
I'll be there like after 11 and I'd be like, well, when's that?
I think I said one day between 8 and 9 and you were outside
at 7.30 just in case I got there.
Just in case.
And then I was like, oh, God, could have driven to Bunbury
in this time, an hour and a half.
Yeah.
Not from Melbourne.
Yeah.
So when I say between 8 and 9, you're outside at 7.30 and I go,
well, yeah, I'll get there between 8 and 9 and then so we had
to update our plans to 10.
But genuinely I would be there at 5 to 8 because I'd be like,
oh, like now I'm on time.
Just standing out the front.
And the thing is I never, I'm happy to wait.
I'll wait.
But I always felt guilty and I know like I didn't need to but I like,
oh, you didn't have to do that.
And so I feel like, and tell me if I'm wrong, our generation,
the text I'm out the our generation, the text,
I'm out the front is kind of becoming commonplace.
Would you say that's accurate?
Or as in like instead of.
You waiting.
I'll just text you and go, I'm out the front.
You go, okay, I'm coming down.
Or if you messaged me, be like, I've just left.
I'm five minutes away or whatever.
Yeah.
And you kind of judge it off that.
Has this changed since you are now a house in the suburbs?
Because I get the apartment coming down because by the time you then come
down the lift and it takes a while.
And also to my old house there was nowhere to park.
Yeah.
So it's not like you can just drive in the driveway.
But if I was picking you up at your new house at 10am,
would it be different or would you still be out the front at 5 to 10 ready to go?
I'd probably walk out the front just before 10 because I'd also be like,
I don't want you to have to walk in, especially if we're
like going somewhere.
Yeah.
My wife, Bridget, had to pick up Rachel the other day.
Yep.
And later Bridget was telling me that Rachel,
they've got this new courtyard, a few new plants,
like tidied it up a little bit and it's looking great.
Yeah, a bit of home renos.
And I go, oh, I thought you were just like picking her up.
And Bridget goes, oh, yeah, I don't do the text thing.
I'm polite.
I go in.
Oh.
So when she says I'm picking you up at 10, she'll find a car park
and she'll come up to the door and like knock on the door
and like have a chat and she feels like it's the, you know,
you come in, you say hi and go, oh, yeah, you ready to go?
And then it's almost like she's picking you up on a date.
Also if you're friends with their partner or whatever and you kind
of say like, oh, hey, Ryan, just saying hey before we head out or whatever.
She's like, you don't, like, I don't do that.
Yeah, okay.
And I was like, why did you go in?
She goes, oh, because I'm not rude.
Oh, that's another thing I've got to fucking be worried about.
Okay.
But I've picked up Bridget from your house before
and she's waited out the front.
Yep.
So she's like, oh, no, no, I'm happy to wait out the front,
but she would like to go in.
Well, you guys are similar.
Like don't want to.
Don't want to put anyone out.
Want to be polite and do the right thing.
But she thinks it's like this old school charm to like go in.
Or not even go in but walk up and knock on the door and be like,
I'm here to pick you up and then kind of, yeah.
I know this is more of a date situation, but you know how like in movies,
like old school, you would knock on the door and like say hi to mum and dad and like dad would go date situation, but you know how like in movies, like old school,
you would knock on the door and like say hi to mum and dad
and like dad would go, oh, are you taking her out?
And he goes, yeah, I'm going to treat her real good.
And he goes, oh, that's my boy, you know.
And it's sort of a –
Oh, no, it's just funny like because you think about like movies like,
I don't know, doing that and you're like, wow.
It's like it's lovely but it is so old school, isn't it?
Yeah, what time are you going to have her home?
It's like, well, it depends how long it takes me to get in her pants, mate.
Oh, wow.
But, yeah, like I mean and also they'd probably be part of it
where I'm like, oh, my God, I really like this guy.
I don't want him to meet my mum and dad.
They'll embarrass me.
You know, like you've got the, oh, no, don't.
Do you remember that scene in, is it Bad Boys with Will Smith and?
Hell Boy, are you thinking of?
No.
Are you thinking of the movie Hellboy?
There's this scene in Bad Boys where,
because they're both like cops and have guns.
Yeah.
The guy knocks on the door to take out,
what's the other actor's name in that?
I can't fucking remember.
That is not the same guy.
No, no, no.
Martin Lawrence.
Yes.
Yeah.
He's getting Martin Lawrence's daughter
and they're just like almost got their gun out.
Like you got to take care of it.
Like just really.
And he's like.
Oh, I actually do.
I've only seen it once,
but yeah,
I do recall.
Yeah.
And it's just like,
it's really brutal.
Yeah.
I guess what I wanted to ask you,
Tony is,
do you think texting I'm out the front is lazy and rude?
I actually don't.
Yeah.
Because also normally if I'm like running out the door my house is a fucking
bomb site great point like actually yeah i don't want you coming in like normally if i'm like about
to say say it was a saturday morning right and you and i ryan were about to go off and do do
something i like probably haven't tidied up and probably the friday night we probably got fucking
uber eats for dinner there's wrappers and. There's two fucking Red Rooster bags on the counter and, like, you know,
Pippa's eating her breakfast so there's shit everywhere and whatever.
I'm probably more like, oh, I'm racing out the door
so I haven't done anything yet.
Yep.
Would you like or dislike if I just, like,
dropped in one day without notice?
No, see, I like that.
Like, if you dropped in, that wouldn't bother me at all.
In fact, I'd be like there's always a carton of soy
in the fridge for Ryan.
Thank you.
You know, like or almond milk.
I was going to say almond would be.
Almond is at the moment.
It used to be soy.
Yep.
No, thank you.
And so there's still soy in the cupboard.
So I used to not only invite myself into friends' places,
but I'd just like go into their room and jump in bed with them
just because I thought it was funny.
Yeah. Or just like, you know, a bit of a cuddle. Hey, how are you guys in go into their room and jump in bed with them just because I thought it was funny. Yeah.
Or just like, you know, a bit of a cuddle.
Hey, are you guys in bed?
Let me just jump on top and give you a cuddle.
Are you for that or against?
It actually wouldn't bother me.
Although you lock your door though, so that would be harder.
We do, yeah, because obviously that is like for adults.
But I know.
I once jumped in bed with Johnny and Erica
and I didn't realise they were having sex when I jumped on them.
See, that's real like share house shit.
I think it was a share house.
I think that can happen when you're 18.
Okay, 27, no.
But I don't think when you're 30 that's like the same thing.
That's out, that's out, yep.
But no, I wouldn't be, I would actually love it
if people dropped round.
If you jumped in.
If you jumped into bed.
I'll see you Sunday afternoon.
Hi, I'm Megan from San Jose
and you're listening to Tony and Ryan.
A massive shout out to a few of our champion tapas over at our Patreon.
That's tapas, Tony and Ryan podcast.
All the links to our Patreon are in the show notes.
You can Google it as well.
But we do a lot of, like, specific things for Patreon.
It's not just, like, the same shit, you know.
For instance, there's bingo in there and there's been a few updates.
Have I done a bingo today?
Not yet, but the last, I put a video in saying let's discuss our updates
and people have said.
Because there was one that was up for contention, wasn't there?
What was the?
Taylor Swift's Change My Life.
And that has been approved by the Tarpers.
No, I didn't.
I plead the fifth because you led the witness.
You're allowed to lead witnesses.
That's not it.
Do you want me to confirm?
Oh, sorry.
Fucking did you just hear Sophie?
That's not it.
So I didn't know you were a fucking lawyer.
Fuck me.
Sorry, Sophie.
Starting a new hobby was one of them.
You've done that many times already this week.
Another one was believing you could compete in an Olympic event. You know, I'll give you that.
Yeah. And so there was contention because a lot of people thought that you'd mentioned swimming
before, but we didn't know if that was before or after. Cause I did my bronze. Yeah. But we didn't
know if that was before or after we started bingo. Oh yeah. So there was like, oh, I think it was
before bingo started, but then you confirmed it 87 times last week by saying swimmers
are a piece of shit.
Absolutely not.
Or like it was piss easy or something like that.
No, no, I definitely didn't say that.
I definitely didn't say that.
She's a prodigy.
I'm a prodigy.
You fucking mind yourself back there.
In Paris 2024, is there lawns?
There'd be lawn balls, isn't there?
A lawn picks.
No, like making the lawn.
It's actually what they put on beforehand.
The lawn picks.
So the Olympics is the two weeks, but the week before that,
that's them getting the pictures ready, et cetera.
Yeah.
You could be an Olympic lawner.
I could get a job for the Matildas doing their lawns.
I could be a Matilda.
Does the lawnmower of Matilda's games get to call themselves a Matilda?
Or part of the team, surely.
Yeah.
Sorry, don't they want beautiful lawn to play on?
Speaking of hobbies, oh, I didn't even do the fucking charts yet.
10, H, good on you, 10.
Thank you, mate. Elizabeth Garlina, good on you, Lizzie. Oh, actually, I'm not even do the fucking charts yet. 10. H, good on you, 10. Thank you, mate.
Elizabeth Garlina, good on you, Lizzie.
Oh, actually, I'm not going to call you Lizzie because you might be an Elizabeth.
My mum was an Elizabeth and people used to call her Lizzie and she'd go,
my name's Elizabeth.
This was when she was a kid.
Oh.
And she'd go, my name is Elizabeth.
And she went by Liz as an adult.
But not Lizzie.
Yeah, but never Lizzie, no.
Only my uncle calls her Lizzie and no one else.
And does she allow that? Yeah. Well, she did, no. Only my uncle calls her Lizzie and no one else. Does she allow that?
Yeah.
Well, she did.
Yeah.
May she rest in peace.
Tanisha Seaborn.
I wasn't Seaborn.
I was.
Landborn.
Landborn.
My mum, thanks for bringing that up, Tanisha.
You were born from a sea.
Josie.
Josie Mars.
Yeah, sea Syrian.
Yeah.
Josie Mars and Susie Bell.
Did you come out of the sunroof?
Yeah, I did.
You're a sunroof baby.
Did you?
Do you know?
What do you call it when you left at the doorstop?
No, but like do you know what happened before that?
No.
No.
No.
No.
Okay.
I could ask but.
I can't ask either.
I'm just making it up.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Anyway, Susie Bell.
But you were a Caesarian.
I was, yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
But I was the fourth baby.
So like.
You should tell her.
How does that work?
Yeah.
So if you've had a cesarean, you like, it's not very common to do a VBAC.
Yeah.
You have a cesarean again.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because like the pressure and stuff.
Is anybody impressed by the fact that I just used the term VBAC?
That's very impressive.
VBAC.
Yeah.
How long have you been waiting on sitting on that fact?
A while.
Yeah.
But yeah, I don't think that's very common.
Thank you.
I'm fucked at facts.
Um, but anyway, speaking of my hobbies, um, I mentioned before, when do you feel like
you've been set up to fail?
I love dabbling in a new hobby.
Um, and I love doing lots of things once and doing a little smorgasbord of activities.
A charcuterie board of hobbies. A smorgasbord of activities a charcuterie board of hobbies a smorgasbord of activities that's great isn't it it's great
very visual i really like that but that's kind of my vibe i really like tipping my toes into
things do you though or is that just the default thing after you've quit after the first time
that's nasty why did you say that in a nasty way?
I mean, like, but did you plan on trying lots of things?
No, but I like trying stuff.
Yep.
And then when I try it, I go, that was really fun. And that's like either enough because I don't like it enough to go back
or because I'm just like, I've tried that.
Tick that box.
Yeah.
Tweet every time.
That's so nasty.
I'm your number one supporter. I don't think that that's true. Yeah. Quit every time. That's so nasty. I'm your number one supporter.
I don't think that that's true.
Yeah.
No, I am.
Is that because you quit after the first time every time?
No, it's normally just that I'm like, oh, I didn't really love that,
but I still enjoyed, like, doing it.
Okay, prodigy chat.
Do you do it one time and realise you're not,
because not many people are a prodigy at anything the first time.
I have not been a prodigy at anything in my life so far.
Lawns.
That wasn't the first time though.
That took a little while.
But I think you're setting yourself up to fail because you're like,
oh, I'll obviously be perfect at everything first go.
I don't think anyone's good at anything first go.
I think that like the language you're using of like,
I'll be perfect at that, it's not that.
It's more that I'm like, imagine if I'm really good at this. Yeah. Like it's not that I'm like, oh, well, obviously I'll be good at that. It's not that. It's more that I'm like, imagine if I'm really good at this.
Like it's not that I'm like, oh, well, obviously I'll be good at that. It's literally like,
imagine if I sit down and I could write a sonata and like, just imagine that.
Same question, but you're too excited. Your expectations are, and then if you're like,
okay, that you're like, oh, I wasn't. But I'm just an enthusiastic girl.
Yeah.
And I like being an enthusiastic girl.
Okay.
But anyway, I have started Reformer Pilates.
I've wanted to start it for actually like five years
but been way too scared and way too intimidated to go and do it.
It's kind of expensive, right, as well?
Kind of expensive.
You've got to get a good intro deal and figure out the right spot, make it work for you. I was very intimidated by the machine and I really didn't want to do it for the first time in a big class where I'm like, oh, I actually don't know. And I know that's why you go to learn. But I was like, I kind of want to like get my bearings before I go to a class.
Cause I also just wanted to like, how does it work?
How am I going to not hurt myself?
Was it on the show or in the office where, and I get that, like, I don't want to do it
in front of anyone else because I need to figure out what I'm doing.
And it wasn't the embarrassment thing.
It was literally just that I was like.
It's still embarrassing.
You feel silly.
Oh, but it was more just that I was like, I just, I think i'll feel more confident if i like know what i'm working with but you said maybe i'll buy one yeah and
do it and was that on the show because we were like oh i think because you're like oh i'll just
figure it out and we're like no i think it's a bit dangerous man yeah so i wasn't gonna buy one
there was like a um a place where you can rent them and you pay 20 bucks a week or month or
whatever and you have the thing
in your house um and you rent it so you don't like buy the thing but yeah so i thought about
doing that because i was like i just really want to like get figure it out yeah anyway i've tried
it is it like is it actually you need someone to tell you what to do yeah you really can't just
pick it up and go oh yeah no i can throw it over well that and that's why i was like i think i
might have even said to you guys,
I know I said to Sophie and our team, I was like,
I'm really glad that I didn't just rent one because I wouldn't have known
the right things, the way that it feels and stuff.
But anyway, the way that just before you said,
you always quit stuff after the first thing.
I've just done my 10th Pilates class.
Thank you. Thank class. Thank you.
Thank you.
I really love it and I've been like going in the morning
and it's just like a nice way to set up my day
and I really, really like it.
And I ended up getting like, I ended up doing like a private lesson.
I was like, you know what?
I'm going to like invest some money into this.
I did one private lesson and I was like, you know what? I'm going to like invest some money into this. I did one
private lesson and I was like, cool. I've like got my bearings now. And that like set me on the right
track because I was like, okay, I can look at it and I can know what it's supposed to feel like
and stuff. Anyway, I, cause I really loved doing, you know, when I was doing PT with Maddie,
I loved that, but it was a little bit far away from my new house. Like,
cause it was already 20 minutes away from my other house. The other direction. The other direction.
Yeah. So it would take me like an hour and a half to get there every time if I was doing that.
But like, you know, when you do PT and you like chat, cause you like chatting to, and Maddie and
I got along great and it was really, really good. But with this, like you really have to focus.
And because you're in a class, you're not really chatting to anybody.
But, like, your body's doing, like, three or four different things at a time.
At once, yeah.
You really, really have to focus on what you're doing, which I love
because the second a thought enters my brain, I'm like, oh, where's my foot?
And, like, you actually can't think about anything else while're too busy to chat yeah yeah yeah and so you can't really chat
you can't really think about anything so like i go in there and i like leave like i leave feeling
like lighter on my feet because i'm like oh i've left it all on the reformer. You know, left it on the field.
Yeah.
You have to be proud of me because I've done 10.
I am proud of you.
Anyway, so I'm good at the lawn.
I'm good at reforming Pilates. I finally found my two things, everyone.
So I'm just really nervous because they're set up to fail.
I'm waiting for the fucking sled camera to drop here.
The other thing about reforming Pilates is that it's really good
for runners because it's like really good core strength and stuff.
And so I hit a real snag with my run.
I really couldn't pass this one milestone.
I did.
I hit a plateau because I was doing the interval training.
Then the first day where it was like, oh, you run for a minute
and don't run, whatever.
But then the first time it got to like run a kilometre
and I couldn't do that because the mindset of like doing times
and then being like, oh, I have to just keep going
and it does matter how fast you're going because it means
like you've got to go for even longer.
Anyway, so I got really stuck and I was like this might help me
get a bit stronger and stuff.
Anyway, but I'm loving it and I've been hopping up in the morning get a bit stronger and stuff um anyway but I'm
loving it and I've been hopping up in the morning like are you in the class now as well as the
privates oh no so I'm not doing that I just did that at the beginning to like get my bearings
and then now I'm in the classes which is great now you need to concentrate um but do other people
have other people got like so good at it that they're able to chat or it doesn't matter how
good you get you always need to like keep your bearings and stuff because what i'm getting at is when you're trying to
concentrate and they go but there's other people how are you finding it you know yeah i just need
to fucking yeah or you know when you're struggling with something and someone's talking to you like
and you're like i can't fucking talk to you so do you want to tell everyone about the rule about
when people arrive at our office yeah so we've decided that there's no good power moves in this office because there's a big
set of stairs.
And so as soon as you walk in the door, you've just walked up like 90 steps.
So you're not allowed to talk to anyone as soon as they walk in because you're allowed
to give them like a little bit of time to de-puff.
Yep.
And then you're allowed to talk to them.
But it's a real power move that when someone walks through the door, you go, oh, mate,
what are you up to?
And they're like, ugh.
Have you done that thing?
Yes, I'm thinking about that. Yeah, so I've got to them. It's a real power move that when someone walks through a door, you go, oh, mate, what are you up to? And they're like. Have you done that thing? Yes, I'm thinking about that.
Yes, I've got my computer back.
I texted, I called someone yesterday.
Yeah.
And they didn't answer and they just texted back and said,
I'll have to call you later.
I'm walking up a hill.
I love that.
I absolutely love that.
I was like, I'll pay that.
Know yourself.
You let me know when you're ready to roll.
And anyway, so i went to book into
a morning class the other day and the class was full yeah and i was like oh fuck like i really
wanted to do one on this day um but they had like an opening in an afternoon class um and i was like
oh i've been going in the morning but like okay like afternoon sounds good like i'll finish my
day and then go down there um i like i get there and i say hello to everybody and then um pop my socks on like we
get started and well they're the grippy socks they are the grippy socks yeah so you don't like
slip your foot off the thing um so it's like also a really cheap thing like you know when you start
a fucking hobby and like i'm the queen of this and you've got to buy all the shit to just to try it yeah and you go I'm already a hundred bucks deep in whatever but like a pair of socks
you know just the record show that I really want to make jokes about the stand-up paddleboard but
I felt like I was mean before so I'm not um the stand-up paddleboard though that is kind of fair
I did get a great deal well no how what's the cost per stand on paddleboard?
This is not economics chat. It's a hell of a deal. I would have lost money if I didn't buy it.
Anyway, so I take a... No, no, no. Yeah. If I pass my exam, then we'll come back to that. Okay.
But I'm still like, I'm not in a position. Yeah, you can't go hard.
Until I, yeah.
Anyway, so I like put my socks on and we like do our little
like first little exercises.
And then the big thing with Pilates, and this is another reason
why like you can't really chat, is because the breathing
is really important.
Right.
So you kind of like breathe in as you do something and then
you breathe out as you do like do it in, then you do it out, whatever.
And we go to start our first exercise.
I take a big deep breath and I go and I get this whiff.
Of what?
A copper whiff.
Someone crop dusted the Pilates performer studio.
And it's fucking delicious.
Delicious.
And it knocks me out of my, like I've got to concentrate
and it knocks me right out of my head.
What sort of delicious?
Describe this smell.
Well, it's knocked me out of my concentration.
I realise it's the best smell on earth.
Hot jam donuts.
Hot cross buns.
It's a fresh pizza being baked.
Holy fuck.
Are you telling me there's a pizza place next door to the-
Pizza place next door to the Pilates place.
And obviously they're not open in the morning.
I've never noticed it because they're not open in the morning
when I normally go.
Now, I know you're doing this for like general health.
And it's for fun.
I just want to do it.
Fun, strength, blah, blah, blah.
But here we are burning a bunch of calories,
putting our best foot forward.
In theory, we're going to have like a net positive day.
Yeah.
I eat well.
I get some exercise.
That's a tick in the box.
Yeah.
But fuck me, does that smell like a car zone?
Yeah.
And like obviously can you eat.
Is that palami?
I just tried to say pepperoni and palami at the same time you is that palami i just tried to say pepperoni
i was like wait pepperoni i thought you were doing a play on words of pilates
that's what i thought you were doing that's what i was doing
but the thing is like can you enjoy pilates and eat pizza fuck you you can i am walking
example of that being in the truth
i'd like to present exhibit a but like can you enjoy but like obviously like live your
fucking best life you could do whatever the fuck you want but that's i'm not i'm sitting there
there's a duty of care to that pizza place to stay the fuck away from the reformers pilates
and so i'm like laying in the thing and i'm like can't stop sniffing this i was like a
cartoon dog like with a pie on the windowsill like that's so good out of the thing and you
know in cartoons how you can see the smell that's what it was like was everyone else going oh well
so no one's chatting because obviously everyone's concentrating i was like fucking hell i crawl
through the 50 fucking minutes i think it's like I crawl into the pizza after. No, no, no. I'll take one of those.
Into the pizza.
It's a sauna as well.
You do it after.
And I crawl to the end of the class and everyone's like,
oh, thank you so much.
Thanks for the class.
And I go, oh, a bit cruel, isn't it?
Like that pizza like wafting through.
And one of the other ladies goes, oh, and the pizza's so good there.
Shut the fuck up.
And I go, oh.
Shut up.
I don't want to know that.
You're killing me.
I've got HelloFresh at home, but I could very easily go for this pizza right now.
So what'd you get?
No, I actually didn't.
What'd you get?
But I actually, I haven't gotten pizza from there.
Tony Lodge.
I swear, hand on heart, I haven't gotten pizza from there.
But yes.
But it turns out, right, I'm like, oh, you know,
how do you walk past?
And they go, we don't.
We've got to deal with the pizza place.
And we go there when they've got a six o'clock class, right?
They go there at ten to six and they go, oh, just pop in next door.
Can you have it ready at seven when I'm done?
And they go, all good.
That's fucking good work.
Stitched the fuck up.
Complimentary product.
Free pizza.
So they go before class.
That is genius.
They go, yep, I'll get a Hawaiian.
I'll get a, you know what, I'm going to change this
from when did you get set up to fail to what is the best fucking life hack
of the century.
So they go there and they go, yep, a Hawaiian and a pepperoni
like for Tony and then they go back after they've, yeah, cheers, mate,
and they go home, like, take their pizza home with them.
That is so good.
Isn't that, like, so I've written here,
I'm trying to figure out whether it's, like, evil or genius.
Like, is it amazing from the pizza place that they go,
oh, there's going to be a lot of hungry people walking out of there?
What about this concept?
Because no one can justify bad food more than I can.
Do you subscribe to the concept of like if I'm going
to have pizza anyway, at least I've like earned it?
If I'm going to have pizza anyway, at least I've done some exercise
and like burned some carbs before I topped back up again.
No, you don't have to earn food.
Food is for everybody and food's for your body and it's fuel.
I think my thing is literally like you've done like you've made an effort
to go there and you go, fuck, be like rude not to.
Support small business.
Yeah.
And is it a pizza chain?
No, it's like just a family business.
Every time you go to Pilates and don't order a pizza,
you're stealing money from a small business.
Yes, it's true.
You're sending.
It would be rude not to, you know what I mean?
Pappy and Mario.
Yep.
And making them poor.
Yeah, I know.
And like, you know, their nephews can't go to soccer practice
because I didn't buy a pizza.
And I will fund those kids and I will put those kids through college.
I should be more supportive of their family.
That is setting you up to fail.
I will pay that.
Like do you remember when like Jets Fitness first became a thing
and like they happened to all, like 24-hour gyms,
and they happened to all open right next to a Macca's?
Well, I think the nerdy legal legal chat like the zoning is like these are for 24-hour businesses this area that's
so funny great Macca's service station 24-hour gym and that's what it always is yeah I didn't
even think about that but it just so happened that yeah like right next to the Jets is the
Macca's and you go oh well at least if you rock up and you go, you know what?
I've had a crook down.
I'm not really feeling it.
You just get a fucking bunch of nuggets.
Or you do both.
Yeah.
Look at all those does.
Look at all those does.
Maybe they should like team up and it sounds like they kind of have already.
Like a class and a pizza for 80 bucks or something.
I don't know.
So a pizza $2.
Is Pilates that expensive?
I don't know.
88 for the Pilates. When was the last time you paid know. So a pizza, $2. Is Pilates that expensive? 88 for the Pilates.
When was the last time you paid $2 for a pizza,
mate?
Pizza's fucking expensive.
Someone hasn't been on Elizabeth street at 4am on a Tuesday recently.
One piece of pizza might be two bucks,
but a pizza is like 25.
They used to have $1 slices at this dodgy joint in Elizabeth street.
And it was like,
I remember going to work, walking past and going,
I might have that when I've finished my shift.
Yeah, when I'm done. And I walk back out and I go, I'm pretty sure that's the same pizza
that's just been sitting in the Bay of Maria for about 15 hours.
Yeah, yeah.
But I just.
But the price is right.
The price is right.
That's right.
And it's location, location, location.
And I've always said that.
Yeah.
I've always said that.
Location, location, location.
And I've always said that.
Yeah.
I've always said that.
Nah, on behalf of the Tup community, 10 sessions is more than one or two.
Thank you.
And I'm liking that you're liking it.
Thank you. Yeah, I really do like it.
And, I mean, the pizza does not hurt.
It does not hurt.
I haven't done it yet, but I think I might have to indulge.
I'll do it today.
You'll do it today?
You go to Pilates and then pizza. I'll do it today. I'll do it today. You go to Pilates and then.
I'll do half of the deal.
Question, just to close the loop.
Question.
And this isn't like to put you on the spot or whatever.
Yeah.
But has it helped the running or now that you're doing Pilates,
you haven't had like that's replaced like running time?
Well, so it actually has kind of replaced running time.
But then when I did it in the afternoon,
I realised I actually much prefer doing it at night time.
Oh, okay.
Like after my day.
So I was like, oh, because it's still.
Switch off kind of.
Yeah, like and it's kind of like, oh,
I know that I have to get home to do this thing.
Yeah, so you've got to leave, yeah.
Yeah, so I'm like, I kind of ends my day.
But with the running though, I think that I want to start doing that
on like the days I'm not at Pilates, like in the morning or something.
Because I really like it and it was one of my goals for the year
to hit 5Ks.
Yes.
But, yeah, now that I'm getting like a bit stronger,
I think that'll really help.
Yeah, sick.
And I was chatting to someone in my Instagram DMs the other day.
They're like, how's the running going?
And I was like, oh, I really hit this snag.
And they're like, what you've got to do is, and they were like, yeah, strength training is really,
really good for it.
So that's what I've got to do.
Just Tony being part of the online fitness community.
Yeah, I'm just a fit gal.
Yeah, that's just me.

Tapa Sophie. Tapa. Different Sophie.com.au for more. Tapa Sophie.
Tapa.
Different Sophie.
She goes, I've started the blog.
I've left my toxic job.
And she's like, this is me quitting, guys.
I'm no longer the executive producer of BDSM.
Sophie says, my dad traveled a lot for work when I was younger.
Did he?
No. We missed him when I was younger. Did he? No.
We missed him when he was on the road, but he was always the best dad
and whenever he was home, he made the most of it,
spent all his time with us and he was so good.
That's so nice.
Now that he's retired, he's making up for lost time
and every year he takes me and my sisters on a big trip.
And we recently just had the best time ever in Japan.
And Sophie's in the episode, not the episode, the love to see it thread.
You can see a photo and they're in Osaka in this market and having a great time.
I now understand Tony's obsession with Japan.
And like Tony.
Everyone makes fun of me all the time.
Then they like Pilates and pizza in Japan.
And now, like Tony, I cannot wait to be insufferable about it
and tell everyone who asks and those who didn't just about how much I loved it
and don't you just love to see it.
Or as they say in Japan,
Wow, that was awful, Bart.
Good effort.
Thank you.
I've been practising at Pilates. Wow, that was awful, Bart. Good effort. Thank you. Thank you.
I've been practising at Pilates.
Yeah, then you got a pizza afterwards.
Yeah, and then did Japanese class.
Very proud of you, Sophie.
That's really cool.
Oh, I'm very proud of me for doing the... Oh, was that not Sophie's handiwork?
Did you just Google Translate that?
But I read it.
Oh, nice.
With confidence.
Yeah, you did.
You really did.
Yeah, the confidence of a white man.
Don't let punctuation and inflections get in the way of a
Fucking hell.
Good on you, Sophie, for going on that little trip with your dad.
That's awesome.
I love that dad's just like he's retired and he's just living his life.
Living the best life.
Travelling with his daughters, having a mad time.
Pizza and Pilates, and I've always said that.
Love to see it.
That has to be the name of the episode thread, doesn't it?
Pizza and Pilates, yeah.
Oh, it kind of doesn't ruin my story, though,
because if you read that, then you know what's coming.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay, we'll change that.
On air brainstorm.
My love to see it, though, thanks to Hubble,
is from Matt Herbert.
And Matt sent this through on Patreon.
Is that what he said?
Matt Herbert.
Herbert. Where am I getting that from? Probably from Sch? Matt Herbert. Herbert.
Where am I getting that from?
Probably from Schitt's Creek.
Herbert.
Orange Herbert.
Austin Powers.
Oh, I'm going to go across the street and buy you some orange.
Orange Herbert.
Matthew Herbert.
That's really funny.
Matt Herbert, good on you, mate.
Matt Herbert. Herbert. That's really funny. Matt Herbert, good on you, mate. Matt Herbert.
Herbert.
Matt has started the fucking blog.
Fuck yeah.
He, his partner Patrick.
It's called pizzaandpilates.tumblr.
We've got a great idea.
He, his partner Patrick and his mate Cameron are buying a microbrewery.
Fuck yeah.
They've wanted to brew forever.
They've always wanted to do it and they're going to purchase it. So he
sent this the other day and they were going to purchase it
that day. And it's
in Timaru in New Zealand
and the brewery closed last
year because the owners wanted
to spend more time with their family, go to Japan.
It was Sophie's dad.
Do you say it in a town called Tiramisu?
Timaru. Timaru. I think it is a town called Tiramisu? Timaru.
Timaru, I think it is actually.
Harder.
But we can do this together, so it's a win-win.
They'd spend time together and, like, drink beer and, like, go on a bit of an adventure, and I think that's so sweet.
Good on you, Matt.
Buying a microbrewery, doesn't that just sound like the best time?
It does, yeah.
Like, I'm not a big beer guy, but I think, like,
a bit like with the sourdough, I think I'd like the process of it that you're like, oh, you're busy.
You are fucking busy at the moment.
Yeah, and I'm really like doing lots of things with my hands.
I like it.
Yeah.
I feel there's actually such a positive connection of like,
and I know we were talking about this the other day because of all of this,
but really like makes you feel really good.
About doing shit yeah
productive but not productive in a way where it like earns you anything but just because you're
like that was really fun and like satisfying and i'm proud that i did that every time i say earn
you shut me down like i didn't earn the pizza we're about to order from the pilates place and
i need your support on this i just palami i'll have a palami if i ordered a palami pizza what do you reckon
would turn up i really don't know paloni is what i'm thinking like devon um but anyway you absolutely
love to see it um so thank you so much for posting that yeah that is cool that's really really cool
do you think um it's like every person that has a moment in their life
where they think they want to start a bar or a brewery?
Oh, yeah, and you think that it must be so easy to do or whatever.
Yeah, you'll have, I reckon you,
maybe I should put on the bingo,
Tony starts a brewery or brews her own beer.
Oh, I don't know if I could do that.
