Good afternoon, Swanye, how's your morning.

Speaker 2

I've spent all morning thinking it was Thursday.

Speaker 3

Oh you've done You did that two weeks ago.

Speaker 2

It just slipped my mind. Me and my daughter have done that twice in a row. It's weird. It's like we've got the same malfunctioning brain.

Speaker 3

You're both just wishing your life away.

Speaker 2

I don't know what's going on there, but I'm excited about today's show because we're going to try and track down you know, sometimes you meet people that are just naturally I'm going to use the word heartless, but it's a harsh adjective, you know, like no nonsense, take no prisoners, these are the rules. I don't care if you're my

child sort of deal. I am not that way. I'm so far the other way that I'm fascinated when I meet people that have the same rules for strangers that they do for people that are supposed to be very close to them.

Speaker 3

Yeah.

Speaker 2

Yeah, So we are going to be asking are you heartless? And if you are, you can call us at any time and we will chat to you.

Like a toy.

I did have a soft toy, but it was.

Speaker 2

A cat and it had stripes. You loved that toy? Yes, and you left it somewhere I did Where in a cab? Sight in a car? Yeah? Like on a holiday?

Speaker 3

Yes? What else happened on set holiday?

Speaker 2

I'm giving myself goosebumps. Here my boobs are tingling, Chanell. Chanelle. Yes, you are on the verge of a full mid life crisis because you've started it started, And yes it has because you are starting to have little, flitting, floaty thoughts of my god, it is my life is so mundane.

Speaker 6

That's very true, and you just want.

Speaker 2

To tear it apart.

Speaker 3

You're just projecting now.

Speaker 2

No, No, I did that a few years ago. It's happening to. It's happening to. Chanelle called you Michelle. Then, who's Michelle?

Speaker 6

Michelle is a coworker.

Speaker 3

Do we like her?

Speaker 9

We do?

Speaker 2

She's like your work wife.

Speaker 3

Oh yes, I hate that term so much.

Speaker 2

Something is glistening in the bottom of a drawer. You've lost a piece of jewelry. Actually, you lose a lot of things, don't you, Chanelle? Actually, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, This is a very full draw. But the one that you're looking for is in the bottom of a drawer in the far right horner, and there's like there's like leg shavers in it, raisors and oh, scrunchies, that sort of draw. You've got to draw like that. I do, go and check that. Check that all right? How tall are you?

Speaker 9

By the way, probably a six foot.

Speaker 3

Yeah that's tall?

Speaker 2

All right?

Speaker 3

Well, last hit misstic.

Speaker 2

You've got a kitchen that you hate.

Speaker 5

I do.

Speaker 2

It's cream.

Speaker 3

Oh yeah, oh my god, that is good. Mister Christy, we are finishing their Chanelle.

Speaker 4

I know you say you lose things, but don't lose this VIP Specsavers voucher we're about to send you because you need to go and get yourself from Elton John Specks.

Speaker 2

You sure do. You put them on and then you suddenly go, oh, the recommend.

Speaker 3

You've also got two hundred and fifty dollars cash.

Speaker 4

Have a great Wednesday, Chanelle The Christy Swan Show.

Speaker 2

Let's talk about tipping. Tipping at a restaurant. You know what, It's been so long since I've gone out that I can't remember whether I tip or not.

Speaker 4

I think I do, Okay, I think you would as well. You're an extremely generous person, you would.

Speaker 2

I feel like I just round things up, yes, but I like to have that option be my decision. There's a restaurant in Sydney that's a in a spot of bother, a bit of trouble because they have built in to their bill in fine print, quite literally, in fine print, a seven percent service charge or gratuity, which is essentially a tip. It is on every single bill. It is incorporated in there. You can see that it's much smaller than the other numbers.

Speaker 4

Much smaller because it says subtotal then suddenly jumps to total with that extra seven percent.

Speaker 2

So subtotal is two twenty one, the total is two thirty and then above that in fine fine print is service charge seven percent fifteen dollars.

Speaker 4

That in itself annoys me. That's not a service charge. That's straight up gratuity. A service charge, I would think is on a public holiday when they charge a little bit extra for.

Speaker 2

Which they're paying extra salaries, which.

Speaker 3

I'm okay with.

Speaker 4

On a public holiday, I get it's an extra buck fee on your coffee because how it's expensive. Yeah, yeah, the hospital owners. But this is shifting. It's that's not a service charge, that's a straight up tip.

Speaker 2

Well it's actually legal. It is legal. Yeah, yeah, it's legal, but it needs to be very easy for the customer to opt out of. And I don't believe that that is easy for the customer to opt out of because it's automatically on there. And you know what it's like when you the whole psychology of even you know, doing direct debit for streamers and stuff. The thing is, once they've got you, you never get out of them. Nope,

you know what I mean. You never put your hand up and go, oh, actually, you know, I don't want this anymore. Just too hid And that's what this restaurant is is counting on. People are cranky about it. The restaurant says, look, you know, it's very clear at the time of booking, at the at the desk, when you you know, check in, when we take you to your table. It's written clearly on the on the bill. I don't think it is, and you know, customers don't have to do it, but it's it's we've put it in there

to reward our staff, which is noble. However, tipping as a thing comes from America, and the reason it is how it is over there, is that the entire structure of hospitality is different.

Speaker 3

Exactly, it is different.

Speaker 2

They've paid a certain amount per hour, and the people who go to that restaurant and have been raised in that culture understand that they make up the rest right, yes, of these people's salary. You must pay that extra. In this country, there's an hourly rate, there's a ward rate, of award wages, whatever. It's all built in. And I still tip, but in Australia it's got to be on merit.

Speaker 3

I agree.

Speaker 4

And there's a we live in a world now when you go to pay for your dinner bill if you are out for dinner for lunch, where the waiter or waitress hands you the f POS machine and watches for which tab you're going to click? Is it five percent? Is it fifteen percent? Is it thirty percent? And it wigs you out because you're like, well, actually, you weren't that great, And I don't really want to tip you, and I don't necessarily have the phones to, but I'm

embarrassed not to because you're standing there, so I'm going to. Yeah, it's such a tricky scenario.

Speaker 2

Think that, like tipping is a tipping as a thing on the ft poss machine. I think that should.

Speaker 4

I agree, because I just think that goes straight to the business owner if IW on it.

Speaker 2

That's what I think.

Speaker 4

Jess, who's been an absolute legend. We've had a laugh with her for a couple of hours.

Speaker 3

Yeah, I want to slip your twenty bucks.

Speaker 4

That should be too directly to her. And let's make tipping old school man. Let's keep it to cash.

Speaker 2

I agree, I absolutely agree. I have a little bit of cash in my bum bag and specifically for Facebook market person.

Speaker 1

Speaker 1

Chrissy Swan Show.

Speaker 2

Let's go quicking.

Speaker 3

Chrissy's clique bait.

Speaker 2

While since I've heard Arnold Schwarzenegger's he's sat down with I always forget the name of this show. It's like it slips my mind. What happens?

Speaker 3

No, watch what happens.

Speaker 2

Like what happens like, because I want to be like, what happens next? What in the world is going on with Andy Colch? You just get no idea.

Speaker 4

It's a great show, but I feel like it's designed for Bravo fans because it's generally just.

Speaker 3

How's Wives and vander Punk Rules stars.

Speaker 2

Et Cetera agreed, but you know, Arnold Schwarzenegger is the gift that keeps on giving his sat down and really answered some of the questions that we've always wanted to know, like what was the favorite movie that he's ever released?

Speaker 8

You know, I don't have a favorite. Sometimes you have a favorite movie. Letsilla to Aminta two and it was a miserable the film. I did not have a good time doing that in full are enjoyed from day one through the last day of filming. I enjoyed there. It was just so funny of it. The cast and the pig on the set.

Speaker 2

Was so funny. With that cast, he seems like a really nice man. He does, because it's very easy to forget that scandal. Yes, that he had a full relationship and a second family with the with the highed help. Yeah, look extraordinary.

Speaker 3

It happens.

Speaker 2

It does happen, you know, it does happen.

Speaker 3

I've never heard of Fuba though, No.

Speaker 2

I'm thinking, is he there to plug it? Like there's two seasons. It started in twenty twenty three. Maybe there's a second season or something coming.

Speaker 3

He's on message.

Speaker 2

Yeah, it feels like that to me because nobody's heard of Fuba. No, ha's got the pig on the set.

Speaker 3

Everyone's so much fun, I know.

Speaker 2

Also, I mean, how much fun is a pig on the set? Also? He talked about how much money he got from the film that made in the most money.

Speaker 3

What film earned the biggest paycheck?

Speaker 8

Number one? It was Twins, Yes, yead Twins. Because we had got no money and no salary. You got to play with ownership exactly visits the back end, and it was fantastic. We went all the way through the bank with that one.

Speaker 3

Yes, did you make more than twenty million on that one?

Speaker 8

We have much more coming though, more than forty million. It was more than that years. It was more than any movie I've ever made.

Speaker 2

Hundreds of millions. Apparently, Wow, have you seen it? Twins?

Speaker 8

Never?

Speaker 2

Do you know the premise?

Speaker 3

No? Because it's Jenny DeVito as well.

Speaker 10

Yeah.

Speaker 2

Yes, so Danny DeVito and Arnold Schwarzenegger are twins separated at birth. It's the funniest film. I remember when it came out. I just couldn't believe my eyes.

Speaker 3

Nineteen eighty eight.

Speaker 4

Is it one of those films though that like, I will go back and watch him think it's lame.

Speaker 8

You know.

Speaker 3

Sometimes I don't stand the testimony.

Speaker 2

Yees, yeah, some of them don't age.

Speaker 3

Well.

Speaker 2

I don't know. I think it would. I think it would stand up. I do because Danny DeVito is always funny and Arnold's a great actor. You can't take that away from him.

Speaker 3

And his son is now as well. I really enjoyed his sogning the White Lotus.

Speaker 2

Yes, I did see in that little thing. What one of the viewer questions was, what was it really like to see that awkward scene that really is in White Loadus? And I want to know his answer. I don't know what it is.

Speaker 3

Let's let's you want to find out at three fifty and clickbait. Yes, let's do that. Let's listen in it out because I'm interested as well.

Speaker 2

Also, Arnold Schwarzenegger said gorgeous things about Miley Cyrus. He dated, she dated his son for a while and he was just absolutely glowing, glowing. I like that.

Speaker 3

That's him quite respectable.

Speaker 2

Jeff Bezos and Laurence Santrell are going ahead with their wedding in Venice, despite Venetians being very very upset about it. Hung a little banner over the poncho or something saying no space for Bezos, get it, yeah, but to conquer that, I think he has sent a little note everybody that is joining him in his nuptills. He says, we're excited for you to join us. We've got one earlier request. Please no gifts.

Speaker 4

I mean, mate, in what world are people bringing you to a gift?

Speaker 2

I mean, there is no Stanley Rogers Cutler reset for you, Jeff Bezos.

Speaker 4

Although I would love to rock up with a card with an Amazon voucherina haha.

Speaker 3

Or yes, space ship, just send them both back to space.

Speaker 2

Just slow cooking, you know.

Speaker 3

Yeah.

Speaker 2

Anyway, they're saying, you know, please no gifts, just donate to the Venice office of your NESCo. Talking about, you know, maintaining the beautiful waterways, La la la. The I mean that has clearly been leaked to the media they have done. The people of Venice off there, that's a pr exercise. And what would you like to say about the design?

Speaker 4

So offended and upset with the graphic and like we've just established this is a they know this has been leated, they've put this out there, but the graphic they have released it on is disgusting. It's a white square with like writing shore. But these ugly butterfly pictures some ugly Venetian boats.

Speaker 2

I've got to say.

Speaker 4

It's so we live in a world where canvar is so readily available, your billionaires pay a graphic designer.

Speaker 2

The font choice is unforgivable.

Speaker 3

What do you think what font is that?

Speaker 2

I don't know. It's cursive, something like for the Love of God's Century, Gothic or health the minimum.

Speaker 4

Good afternoon, Welcome to the Christy Swan Treswani has a dim sim in the mouth.

The Crissy Swan Shows, The Crissy.

Speaker 2

Swan Show Full Disclosure, We've lost our minds, We've.

Speaker 4

Lost our minds and Swanny. Before we get to this segment, I've got to tell you I thought of you this morning when I was doing my TV stuff because we were in the break and commercial was playing, and they're so ridiculous.

Speaker 3

Sometimes they're so long, and they're so long.

Speaker 4

Anyway, this woman came on with this British accent and said something and I started to feeling myself cry and you were alive on it all about to be and I just started thinking of you and Tom because of my life so ridiculous.

Speaker 3

Just listen to what this infomercial sounded like.

Speaker 2

I want you to sit on it with these two raw eggs.

Speaker 3

I'm going to sit on the eggs.

Speaker 2

Yes you are, sit on them, sit on them, sit on them. I want you just sit on it with these two raw eggs.

Speaker 8

I'm going to sit on the eggs.

Speaker 2

Yes you are, sit on them, sit on them. Please tell me what was going on now? I'm so intrigued. What was she selling? What was who was talking.

Speaker 3

It was something that you'd put on your chair like.

Speaker 4

It looked like just a door mat to absorbly quids.

Speaker 3

So she made him sit on it.

Speaker 2

Absorbly quids were so chair.

Speaker 4

Oh, I just had to really think of some dark thoughts to pull my self back.

Speaker 2

Really dead kittens, that's my thing.

Speaker 3

Well you went to the top.

Speaker 2

There's deaf con four ten? Are you heartless? Are you heartless? Would you listen to that story and just not even crack a smile, not even do someone a favor.

Speaker 4

Because people might sometimes think you and I sound heartless.

Speaker 3

But we aren't. We aren't it all?

Speaker 2

We answered all. There is a story that is circulating that we've been talking about. She it's a girl. Woman is saying, am I heartless? Or am I normal? Imagine this scenario. You've got your apartment, you live in it, you're cooking and paying everything done. There is a spare bedroom. Your little sister quits her job in the middle of a shift. Now your little sister doesn't have any savings, she's got nowhere to go. Of course, you say, come

and stay with me while you sort yourself out. No worries. She did that. So there's two sisters living at home. Ones got to act together and paying the rent. And the little sister has quit her job in the middle.

Speaker 1

Of a shift.

Speaker 3

Not great.

Speaker 2

After two weeks, nothing is being done. The big sister is like, ah, you're just sleeping all the time. I'm still I'm paying for everything. You haven't even started looking for a job. I'm going to start charging you rent, very very modest. But I can't keep paying for all the food and all the bills and everything while you're just sleeping all day and you're playing video games and not contributing.

Speaker 10

Well.

Speaker 2

The little sister lost her mind and said, you're so heartless, and the big sister the big sisters like am I am? I actually what I would not do that what the big sister did, because I am a dormer, sits on it and I have I just would never do that. I would just take it and take it and take it and take it and take it.

Speaker 4

I think with my sister Georgia, there would be like a month there and if I had not seen her actively, oh no, but then I probably know I would just let her stay.

Speaker 3

I was going to say, well, you.

Speaker 2

Would just call Wendy and Dave and say listen, she's leeching off me. Someone's going to have to pay and it's you.

Speaker 3

Yeah, correct, that's what I would do. Ad outsource. Yeah, I to mom and dad.

Speaker 2

But having said that, I would never do what this big sister is doing. But she is one hundred percent right.

Speaker 3

So you disagree with people that are calling her heartless.

Speaker 2

Yes, she is doing the right thing. This is the right thing. She's worked very hard historically to get to where she is. It's not the thing is that sister is not her child. She is not obligated to look after her. That little sister needs to go back to mom and dad because that's that's where the obligation is.

Speaker 4

But if mum and dad wasn't an option, I would hope that my sister would let me stay.

Speaker 2

Yes, but what this person is doing is right is saying yes you can stay here, but you have to contribute something. Yeah, okay, But I would never do it because I am pathetic. I want to hear. I want to hear from people that are not pathetic like me. Have you been accused of being heartless? Have you been accused of being hard nosed to business like?

I think hasn't even got out of bed for two weeks, and the big sisters starting to say, well, guess what I'm going to charge you some rent? My god, all hell broke loose. Sound familiar very much so.

Speaker 11

I'm the oldest of fourth of four kids. I've had every one of my siblings live with me at some point or another, and it got to the stage where I've had to kick him out on their arms with me.

Speaker 2

Was it all for the same reasons?

Speaker 11

Yes, yeah, pretty much. They're all hard done by.

Speaker 4

Look.

Speaker 11

I left home when I was thirteen, and you know, was able to look after myself and do everything myself. And when my siblings got a bit older they needed somewhere, I took them in. And yeah, it got too much by the time I had kids in that and I was still looking after my siblings. I just said I can't do it anymore.

Speaker 2

How long did they stay for? On average?

It sounds like affair.

Speaker 2

But yeah, so Mel, if you had your time again and the first sibling came to you and said, hey, Mel, boohoo, I need to stay with you, what would you say.

Speaker 9

I'm not heartless. But my older sister is. When I was about twenty one twenty two, I moved to London and she was already living there with her boyfriend. They bought a house together and they had a their bedroom and so I arrived there and after a week staying with them, they hit me up for rent and they were like, you need to start paying rent. And I didn't have a job yet.

Speaker 2

No, well you just got home from the airport.

Speaker 9

Literally, and so yeah, and I was like, I can't afford to pay one hundred pounds a week rent and they said, well, then you've got to move out. And I said, are you going to rent the room to anyone else? And they were like no, and they never did, so they kicked me out. The room stayed vagent and I ended up having to like couch there for like six weeks with friends that I'd made whilst I'd been traveling, and till I could, you know, get a job that earned enough money to pay my own rent.

Speaker 2

Okay, So how long ago was this? I'm really intrigued by this. How long ago?

Speaker 9

Well, nearly twenty years ago?

Speaker 2

Okay?

Speaker 9

Turned for all?

Speaker 2

Speaker 9

And probably like twenty one?

Speaker 3

Yeah?

Speaker 2

Was it the boyfriend and influencing her? Or is that just yeah?

Speaker 9

Look I like to think it was. Then you're married and have three children. But honestly, like, I still feel sick about it, and like I've tried to sort of it's been years, trying to put it behind me, but I just can't get over it because it was so heartless. I was like, oh my god, you have you said to her.

Speaker 2

How could you have you sung this song to her?

Speaker 9

No? No, I think it's just when I know, like when you're an adult, whether you just like pretend these things never happen.

Speaker 2

Oh my god, you must not. You must not pretend. You've got to You've got to bring it up with her, you must.

Speaker 9

I think we need to go see a psychologist.

Speaker 2

No, no, no, she will want to talk about it, and you know what, you'll probably find that she'll go, that's not how it happened at all, and her recollection will be so different, and it'll be so good to talk about. If you want a way to do it, why don't you do what that guy did in Love? Actually, just write it on signs and stand in their street and make them read it.
