Well, adults, we understand that people are gonna get partners and priorities change. Yeah, I think you grow apart as well. Like, my best mates at school. I'm not, you know, my best mate from primary school, Stewie. I see more now than I did during High School. Like we grew apart. Yeah. Through high school, we sort of ditched each other. Hi, I'm Amy Shepherd. I'm locked and Stewart and although we have different last names, we're married.
Now whooping told the secret to a successful marriage is communication. So we're going to talk it out every week. Share our challenges and pet peeves. Then we're setting each other. Some goals some couple goals. Couple goals to podcast is for those who might be looking to life their way through challenging scenarios that all couples. Go through occasionally. We might even get some other couples to join in. Yeah, you'd like that. Hit, subscribe, and tune in every week to hear our weekly
couple goals. With so 24. Here it back back again. I actually feel the most energized. I felt on this podcast for a very long time. Not naked. I feel like that nakid. Why you not hit? Because I'm doing your program and it's killing me. That's not good advertisement for it. Is it it's good like I'm feeling really strong. I'm squatting really the same as you well that hard.
Let's clarify that Very quickly because you're making me sound like bearest not, it's okay, no. So okay, here's what's happening. Hey, for women to be just as strong as men. No, I'm not. Why do you have to make this about genders? There's nothing to do with genders. This was all about, just me and you personal.
So, Today, I had an awesome moment where the lamps smoked me on the scale, I love training with people who are fitted than me because you have to work harder but when your fitter or stronger than someone you can sometimes just Cruise you know when you're not really trained I like I'm not really training for anything that moment just going through the motions so I just
got whatever I'm squatting. Yeah that's what I was doing and then I went over to talk to Amy today and I was looking at the barbell because we're training at the same time as looking at the barbell and it was yellow. No at first and Egos nearly screwed. My body weight is a yellow and a black, so it's 60 kilos. And then you had a yellow, yellow black, and I'm sitting there going doing the math you're doing. 90 kilos squats. Where are they doing?
100 over there? So I realized I had to ramp it up. What did you wrap it up to? I kept it 100. Just call me lucky. It's all I'm saying. I just have a big Squad. I don't want to boast but I still used. And I thought I could still do it Paul Squad and I've got a good squad. Are you competitive with your spouse? I'm really, I'm not really competitive person but because I would disagree, really? Yeah? Why because when we did the dry try together. Yeah, and when you're on the
rower, you're very competitive. Don't try to shy away from that. That is, I don't know if I am. Do I know for A fact you are because you just did it then everyone's probably listening to this with their jaw on the ground going. How does she not remember what she just started this
conversation with competition? Yeah, because you're competitive and you're always, you have to. I look, I'm not here to say I'm not competitive keep up. I know I'm competitive look when we were doing our, you're making our workout today, and I was just like, let's try and keep them all under two minutes to the two Lads. Liam, I was in at 149, I was 156 155 500. Yeah. And I was like, nah, my brain just clicked and I was like, it's race time and I was like, I'm going to catch you down.
Let me catch you. And that was the whole whole worker. So we would just fucking hammering it doing it and we got down to 143 PS. Whoo. What's up? My father? I've been doing 500s. I'm I try to get them under two minutes every time. Yeah like 157. I see when a cop with the boys there, I'm just saying that I'm right on your tail. Okay, so all right well I like that. I love having a stronger say so that's why I'm exhausted because I've been really pushing myself. Oh well.
That's right. Proud of you it's good. I like your work ethic in the consistency. Yeah but also attractive like as I said last week a crazy year of just like One thing after you released this song is just Friday. Yeah. Accepting about that. Yeah, let's talk about it. Talk about it released a song. Shepherd. Good time. And it's our first release of Shepherd in two years. I believe it's like blowing up
on YouTube, isn't it? Yeah, it is actually it shot the film clip a couple weeks ago in Melbourne, and it's a really fun summery vibe. It matches the song so perfectly and our mums in it. She has a little Cameo, which she, like, dreads, she's so embarrassed about it, but I'm telling everyone Linda Shepherds in it. See if you can spot her. Yeah, so that came out and Friday. It's going really well, it's been added to a couple of radio stations would be doing TV.
We've been doing shows, I've been doing my Amy Shepherd stuff, is we've been neglecting your husband. This is the first, like, when I saw you in the gym today. I was, I genuinely excited to see you because I haven't seen if I had to give you a hug in public. Do you guys do public displays of affection? Is it cool? Is it called for what do you think? Like we're not like we are a little bit but not full on PDA. I'm more affectionate than Amy she gets like embarrassed by him.
So I try to do it even more. Just give her a kiss in public. When I either Jim 2000. Come here. Give me a hug. Come on. I haven't seen you in five nights and you really like people like Mackey it on the gym like Roy went matching it with Again, yeah, that's fine. That's why I still sometimes. You're a bit standoffish a bit awkward. I think that's something that's actually that's, that's going to be my pet peeve. We'll come back to that my goodness. I have a pet peeve this week.
17. You? Yeah. I've just established one for my you've got one about me. I'll find one. Well, we leave in the VW. Oh yeah, there's a little pet peeve for you. I just gave you and that's makes me let lets me off the hook. I threw myself. I'm doing early pet. Peeve singers around it. No, no, that's come back. Okay, let's come back.
Back so yes so question that was put on our will send an inbox a lady her daughter was actually at CMC on the weekend and she said you guys should do a podcast about this topic. Have you ever been ditched by your friends? Well, she ditched by her friends. I don't know. Easy. Just do you mean like ditched for just in general? Like ditched for another for a while. Let's say both, let's talk to you. Both have you been ditch my friends not since Primary School? I've been ditched.
I can remember back in the day, the whole group wouldn't. Did you buy like some dudes with? Did you while they're chasing tail? Yeah, I think that's been that's at like teenager's. Yeah, definitely had like lost friends because they spent all their time with their boyfriends and they literally like I have this one friend to kind of just went really roguelike, all weird, and I didn't want to hang out and it was just just so strange and we couldn't do anything without with her.
Unless the boyfriend was invited and then she just kind of stopped talking to us and like only hung out with him and that they still together. Yeah, they got married. But would you say that's worth it? Then maybe. Yeah, I guess on her part but literally I don't know if she's going the other friends except for him. Oh sometimes you win and sometimes you lose Solaris your own song wrong.
Yeah, well, it's not very nice. When you have a really good friend, you spent lots of goods, good times with them and then they meet someone that up they're just like yeah. Did she do to dogs? What do you think? What about guys who have did? Yes. Oh, well adults. We understand that people get partners and priorities change. Yeah I think you grow apart as well. Like my best mates at school. I'm not, you know, my best mate from primary school, Stewie.
I see more now than I did during High School. Like we grew apart. Yeah. Through high school, we sort of ditched each other. And then my best mates from high school, or a hue, for example. Yeah. I don't see, I don't really even speak to anymore. Yeah, I definitely would, but we just don't make the effort. So I think we've great like wife's gone in different directions. So I think as we've got older, we've sort of ditched each other but yeah. But no hard feelings, right?
Yeah, I think now, I just want to hang around people, like I reckon, we've got the really good group of friends and there's never any drama like, I always think back to if I still had people that brought constant drama into my life, I could not deal with it. Yeah, I just end it over petty stuff that I still hear going on with some people at the gym or whatever. And I'm sitting there going, I don't you surely, there's more important things to think about
in your life at this point. I guess for some people that's really not. Well, you had it from a me. Get some all these, get some bloody Hobbies. We haven't spoken about. Obviously you just spoke about relation is song. What did I do on the weekend? I've got to say there's three bands or three artists that I can genuinely listen to every single song.
Every single song and not need to skip it and it makes me want to buy the record because you have to sit down and listen to it. It's, you guys wildin cone Z even like the killers who I used to just love Johnny Farnham just, you know, a lot of I can't listen to it and it's a little plug. Combs is dropping his album on Friday. You're going away to a hens party. I'm going to get myself a bottle of scotch and I'm going to sit by yourself.
Yes. Because I don't want people to talk to me while I'm listening to that. Wait for me to get back and we'll do it together the old listen to it multiple times, you can do it twice, but I'm so excited to sit down and look. I'm gonna probably have one scotch to be fair. Yeah, not everything, not a dead, not imagining it. But I just think sitting there not being disturbed by single person play or 16 songs
themselves headed by that. But How long is that like an hour and a bit 30 minutes, forty five pm and it it's a good time. Yeah, I'll have a good time. But seeing Sam sann the weekend was incredible lineup. So seems see, is the Country Music Festival in Brisbane and it's mixed. It's the biggest one. It's the biggest one in the southern hemisphere, I'm pretty sure.
Yeah, it's well, this lineup in particular, was insane like all the biggest countries does Al's Australians, just like they're all in the one place for the weekend and I was so excited for it, we got tickets and and then Shepherd, got a gig in Melbourne. So I had to work and I was just like, so excited for a weekend work.
It just like let loose and have fun and not have to work and enjoy the festival rather than being behind the scenes having to. Yeah, but lucky went, but I decided I had to fly the shepherd flag and I had to show face and Network. and, You know, doing that. Did you do that? I did play. I've met I fucking bumped into heaps of people. We know I was good. I told her to tell Josh chewing
the fat with everyone there. I was and look it was Friday, it was 39 degrees, it was scorching, so I chose Comfort over fashion. I went in jeans and joggers, like short jeans and joggers and I looked ridiculous, but Stewie rolled in and still he was wearing his iron worms are moon, jae-in's, long shirt. And he made a big mistake. He was sweating his ass off. Oh no, I was sweating my ass off and I was pretty cool. They dressed.
Yeah. Anyway, fast forward, there was a lot of great acts, you know, one guy that I really enjoyed his music when I saw him live and his personality and how he spoke to the crowd absolute flogged. I'm not going to say his name. But then, like Jordan Davies was phenomenal. Bailey Zimmerman got around him, hadn't listened to much of his Sam was phenomenal. Ashley McBride was her voice and cams voice. And I reckon they're like it, you three would get along well,
how else would we say? But anyway, let's fast-forward Hardy is like, how do you felt out of? Like I don't get me wrong. I enjoy Hardy because he's was
country. And now, he's definitely Rock and he was on before Morgan while in last night, and it was just like you played to country songs from his old stuff, but a lot of new stuff from his Is Crown the Mockingbird album, which is Rock like mainstream Rock and he was screaming like yeah, it was like people loved it, but it was just not good. It felt like it was the wrong. Place for it and felt like it was trying to make what seems see.
And I'm probably an old person saying, I like, it staying country. It felt like it should be a big day out or interesting. A different Festival. Like awesome performance. But anyway, but Morgan wallet. I have not been excited like that that ever. How was it? Amazing.
I I had it was just phenomenal. Yeah like he's definitely now a Magister like he is. Oh yes his you know chop it in, chop it in stage different stage like just a poor like a performance and every song like I said You every word I was just like those people are used to pay out of them, like, how do you obsess over a band so much? And now, I'm that guy. Yeah, so I found my band obviously you guys as well, but you guys were the first we're the best.
Even I was thinking about it. When I met you, I didn't even know you're a musician. Yeah, so found out pretty quickly. Yeah, obviously, I found out pretty quickly but I didn't know that's when I listen to Triple J. So I hadn't heard your songs before or anything. It wasn't Like I met you went. Well, she's a musician. Hmm, right now. I've slowly like that. So, whereas I walk a while and I've obviously never met never seen. So you build up this idea of excitement?
Yeah, I think Combs is going to be the same as well. Okay, that's enough. Toto. Did I just talk for 30 minutes? Pretty much. I'm so sorry. We're talking about couple girls here. Okay, we've got a new segment that we're adding into. Are we going to add this in all the time? Well, Let's see if the people like the story, okay? So you've heard in previous podcasts that I am a sucker for Reddit, the app, the form. And if it's on there, she's read at.
Yeah. And one of the episodes like, look he asked me, what did you read and read it this week so I thought it'd be fun to add in a segment called read on Reddit. What do you do? You want me to get like a horn button or something else? We weren't relying on you for buttons. Okay, I'm about to take this podcast Next Level. Okay, we're getting buns. So do you want me to read the story that I just came across? Well, I think relationship advice.
Yeah, hit me up subreddit. Is it going to benefit us has got a age? Wanting this is not safe for work. This is not safe for people under the age of 18. What Listen is discretion. Advised you heard it here first go. All right, I'm excited. So the heading is, I found a video of my girlfriend in bed with three guys, though. 26 year old male, 24 year old female 3 guys. So this is the story last night. I was laying in bed and my girlfriend of one year was taking a shower.
Now for reference, I have never looked at her phone, I respect her privacy but when I was walking around the bed I saw her phone was unlocked on the nightstand and the photo app was open. Okay. No big deal but as I was glancing at it, what I saw looked like a porn thumbnail of the top of one of the videos. Those I honestly thought that's what it was and I was going to laugh that she was saving porn on her phone. I decided to look closer and that was a mistake.
I open the video and it was my girlfriend. Having sex doggy style with one man while giving another man a blowjob and a third watching from the side, the camera angle was like the phone was set in the corner of the room. I did not recognize the room or the men. She has an old phone, so the video was not good. And I couldn't see the front of her face but I could 99 Sent tell that it was her even from far away because of the head body and very distinct birthmark on her shoulder.
I was completely stunned and I confronted her see a birthmark but not your face if it's from okay. Yeah. Wow. So he confronted her and her response was anger that she went, he went through her phone. I told her I didn't but it was open on the nightstand. Rara then, after more Arguing arguing, she said that an old it was an old video from her college and that I was being aggressive and that she would
never cheat. I asked if the video why the video was in recent videos one week ago and she said she was cleaning out old photos and found that and was going to delete it. Then she said I was being paranoid and unreasonable. I finally let it go. We went to sleep, we haven't talked about it again. What do you think? Yeah, he just said, I can't get off my mind. Doesn't feel right. I couldn't see her face but then there's an edit.
So he's updated everyone. He said, I forgot to mention that it was hard to tell her the poor quality of the video. She looked fairly muscular when we started dating. She was skinnier and has been working out. Has put on some muscle on my past year. Now, I'm second-guessing what I saw an uncertain what to do? Shi-it. That's a hard one. Oh my goodness. I what do you think? I think the unfortunate thing with this is, if you believe it's recent, you're not going to trust her anyway.
I mean, the trust is done regardless of where it is because there's now no how do you prove that? Whether it is or it isn't obviously, you know, if you can't make it out and shoot, there's no definite time. Yeah. Can you check when it was recorded? Yeah. Maybe there's a time stamp. I would want to see the timestamp. And if but then, can he bring it up again? Be like, show me the timestamp. Woody is like, I deleted it but you would have, why didn't you
just delete it? Why is it in her recent? I don't get that. I don't swear. I think she's caught out. So you think she did it? I think she did it. Oh my God, but because once was so defensive, like, why are you going through my phone? Like, that's just defense, defense defense. And then the second thing is, why the hell if you were going through your old photos to delete it? Why is it in your recent photos? Yeah.
That's good point. I think, Apple has recent fire, followed his fire reason files folder for a reason because it's recent meaning, she didn't just cheat on you with cheat on you with one bloke. Not even two blokes. She went three blokes now, is that an overachiever we'll leave that out to you guys? I don't know, but I personally calling BS on her. I think she cheated and she How lucky is that language? Well, how would I say that? I'm just saying, cheating is bad lying's bad.
She's caught out. And if I were you, I would be bringing up with, okay. What would you let together for one year? Like, yeah, that's nothing. Find someone who's going to treat you? Well, 100%, yeah, definitely go play in a different ballpark. If yeah. Anyway, that's what I read on Reddit this week. Yeah, well that's that's wild. Yeah, that is wild. Have any of you had to deal with
any situations like cheating? Yeah, whether it was you thought it was cheating but you weren't sure whether it was or whether it wasn't like, that's a really dirty. So I give a real-life story of me. Yeah, cool. I don't want to hog it because I know I spoke about while on for a long time. I was wallowing on. Yeah, I'm worried that you can cheat on me with Mullen. I remember. When I cheated on my previous partner, I was really jealous and insecure that I believe she was cheating on me.
So and all I've since realized no sits in a stock you know, Dental that but it was like I was projecting the bad shit that I was hiding on to her and assuming that she was doing the same things. So I would have to check the phone and do all this weird shit which is wild. So maybe there's two sides to the story. Well, anyway, we all go through, we learn, we learn, we learn, thank God if you don't learn, you're an idiot. That's all I have to say. Okay, peas. Peas, the piece. All right.
So will my pet peeve as previously stated it? What it was. I didn't even write it down. What it was and I have definitely forgot public displays of affection. Yes. Yes, look, I don't want to Macon in town. No way. No, no chance. However, I would love you to look like you're enjoying giving me a hug or a kiss in public. You know who it does, it does make me feel like I'm a bit of a burden.
Sometimes you a nice hug in the gym today but I can tell by your energy I know, but I just feel like a few other spiritual your the spiritual one, right? So listen, from an energetic energy point of view and everyone out there knows what I'm talking about. You can tell when your I wanted to give you that hug. You can tell when your partner is to not give you a hug. But you're like, yeah, because you're wearing a, you know, your work attire. It's I don't care. I'm all about the love.
All right, so my goal is to be more affectionate, more affectionate in public, just appreciate me mad because one day when we ran it old, one of us is going to be dead and if it's me first, yeah, I told you about to die at the same time in the same bed. In a perfect world, a, in a perfect world, but your pet peeve. So you guys heard that we moved out last week and lucky had culled, all of his wardrobe like a lot, like five bags garbage
bag. I went to town 5, garbage, bags of clothes and a not just shit pretty proud of that. Anyway, he They sat in our bedroom, I packed up the whole house and they sat in our bedroom for a couple weeks while I did that and they were the last thing in the unit and I might lucky, what are you going to do with these clothes? He said, I'm going to give them to my brother, you lose.
It's a book, just get them out. So he piled them all into my sister's car and then he said, I'll give them to mom, cause she's coming to see him. See with me this weekend. Yes, and she'll take them back to Tomba like okay cool. I'll deal with him for a little Longer and I texted lucky. I was in Melbourne. Texan don't forget the clothes I already had them in the car. Yeah they were in the car. Look he's like I'm all over it. Don't worry.
I thought about it like cool and then this morning I go to Cole's in a car and we open the boot and it's filled with garbage bags. I do feel shitty about that. Thanks for making me feel So anyway, I got no defense to that. So this week, your goal is to do something with those clothes. I don't care where they go but I never want to see them again noted.
