Schitt with Money S1E1: Our Cup Runneth Over
What happens when you mix Schitt’s Creek, a financial adviser, and an accountant? Apparently, a podcast.
Welcome to the very first episode of Schitt with Money! In this rewatch series, Peita and Emma obsess over the brilliance of Schitt’s Creek, sneak in some unexpected money lessons, and question life choices—both ours and the Roses’.
In This Episode:
💰 Leave your finances to me, he said. We dissect the classic “business manager ran off with all our money” storyline and why financial transparency isn’t just for accountants.
🎭 The wigs, the drama, the absolute chaos! Moira has a meltdown of Oscar-worthy proportions, and we are so here for it.
💡 David’s moth phobia, Alexis’ red flags, and Roland’s… everything. There’s a lot to unpack here.
😂 Why didn’t we clock these jokes the first time around?! Roland Schitt’s name? The sheer horror of that mansion? The absurdly massive diner menus? This rewatch is eye-opening.
Schitt We Learned:
- Handing over your finances completely? Big mistake. HUGE. (Yes, Pretty Woman levels of regret.)
- Tax bills don’t pay themselves. Even if you’re super rich, you should know what’s happening with your money.
- If your boyfriend “could maybe consider saying ‘I love you’ at some point soon,” RUN. (We see you, Alexis.)
- Moira hiding diamonds under her tongue is iconic, yet completely impractical.

Transcript
What do you get when you mix Schitt's Creek?
Speaker A:The financial adviser and an accountant.
Speaker A:Well, a podcast, apparently.
Speaker A:We're Peter and Emma and together we're re watching Schitt's Creek, obsessing over its brilliance and sneaking in some unexpected money lessons.
Speaker A:Welcome to Shit with.
Speaker A:Welcome, everyone, to the very first episode of Shit with Money.
Speaker A:Emma, I cannot tell you how excited I am to dive into this rewatch with you.
Speaker A:It's been far too long since I've revisited Schitt's Creek.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker A:Like, I mean, we've all seen the little bits and the memes and the things in our feed, but it's been far too long since I actually sat and watched it.
Speaker A:So I want to know before we dive into the actual episode and we.
Speaker A:And we get you going, folks, and excited about the detail, like we are, what makes Schitt's Creek so enjoyable for you?
Speaker B:It's just so funny and so relatable and.
Speaker B:And just so easy to watch.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:So after like a big day and you just want to like, sit on front of the TV and watch something that you have to think about that makes you laugh.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:It's just an easy watch.
Speaker B:That's just so funny.
Speaker B:But it's the memes.
Speaker B:I think it's been a few years since we've actually watched the show.
Speaker B:But the memes have their own show, don't they?
Speaker B:You know when you're doing the GIFs and stuff on.
Speaker B:When you're messaging friends.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:You know, especially, you know, the tax writer.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:And all of those.
Speaker A:Like that.
Speaker B:That's kind of kept the story going.
Speaker A:And if I was a suspicious person, it's almost like the writers wrote it for that purpose.
Speaker A:There are like, it's fit for purpose, isn't it?
Speaker A:Every episode and each one I'm watching now, I'm like, oh, you like, you forget where they come from, but it's just chock full of them.
Speaker B:Ye.
Speaker A:And I guess that's the thing.
Speaker A:This is wonderful, beautiful writing.
Speaker A:That's what it comes down to.
Speaker A:That's why the gifts work.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker B:Totally.
Speaker A:Because of this magic in the words.
Speaker A:So before we dive into the actual detail, the episode, and we'll sort of do the high level.
Speaker A:Hey, when it came out, it's actually, when we release this, it'll be 10 years since it first aired on TV in Canada, I might add.
Speaker A:I'm curious, what was your initial reaction to the show?
Speaker A:Do you remember when you first saw it?
Speaker B:It took a while for me to get into it, but I was told by a friend, just push.
Speaker B:And so I did, thankfully.
Speaker B:And then by the end I was just hooked.
Speaker B:I didn't want it to end.
Speaker B:And it has like 80 episodes.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:There's.
Speaker B:There's so many.
Speaker B:But by the end, I didn't want it to end.
Speaker B:I wanted more.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:But it did take me a while to get into.
Speaker B:I couldn't really.
Speaker B:It's, it's, it was unusual.
Speaker B:There's nothing really quite like it in terms of its kind of quirkiness and.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Like, lack of real storyline.
Speaker B:Every episode was kind of a story of itself.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:Didn't kind of connect.
Speaker B:So it took me a while.
Speaker B:But now, oh, my God, I love it.
Speaker A:And even.
Speaker A:I noticed too that even the music is this odd plotty quiet.
Speaker A:Like it's not getting you revved up for the show.
Speaker A:It's not that build, it's this slow.
Speaker A:So you had to get used to that.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker A:To get used to the style, I'll admit.
Speaker A:And we're probably going to get hate mail for this.
Speaker A:But I didn't like it.
Speaker A:So the first time I watched it, I had a visceral and negative reaction and I remember thinking, what are we doing celebrating Kardashians and all these reality TV people?
Speaker A:So I literally.
Speaker A:The tone went right over my head and I was just like, this is ridiculous.
Speaker A:I hate the fact that people get celebrated now they're making a whole show about it.
Speaker A:I was aware, of course, of Eugene Levy.
Speaker A:I'm like, I love this comedic genius.
Speaker A:Why is he doing this?
Speaker A:So I just left it.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:So I sort of watched it a bit and this went, nah.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Then like you, I actually.
Speaker A:My husband loved it and he was watching, I think I've gone away or something overseas and I come back and he's like roaring with laughter and you've got to watch it.
Speaker A:So I start again and I'm in on the joke then.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:And I relax into it.
Speaker A:But it did take me a while.
Speaker A:They were just so appalling.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:There's nothing like there's no other show.
Speaker B:Like, it's kind of the modern day Seinfeld.
Speaker B:You know, Seinfeld is like that random funny, but in a weird, funny, confronting funny.
Speaker A:Yeah, isn't it?
Speaker B:It's kind of the.
Speaker B:Our generation.
Speaker B:Seinfeld.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:And again, the memes and the characters and all the rest of it.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker B:It took a while to get into it.
Speaker A:Well.
Speaker A:And I felt better as I was doing the research for this, for this episode.
Speaker A:I felt better when I found out Dan Levy actually was inspired by the Kardashians.
Speaker A:The question he asked himself when they created the show was, what if the Kardashians went broke?
Speaker A:What would they do?
Speaker A:Who would they be?
Speaker A:And I'm like, okay, I feel better now that I reacted because of them.
Speaker A:I feel better about it.
Speaker A:I'm like, okay, Dan would forgive me.
Speaker B:You were on track.
Speaker A:I was.
Speaker A:I was maybe a bit slow to the party, but I got out in the end.
Speaker A:Now let's dive in.
Speaker A:So today we are starting at the very beginning, folks, with season one, episode one.
Speaker A:Now, the title of the episode, Our Cup Runneth over, which I thought was pretty funny.
Speaker A: ,: Speaker A:I can't believe it's 10 years.
Speaker B:Unbelievable, right?
Speaker B:So crazy.
Speaker B:Time just goes so quick.
Speaker A:Well, and we've had the big Covid in the middle, so I guess, you know, time warp stuff that occurs around that.
Speaker A:Which is nuts.
Speaker A:It was directed by Jerry Kitchariti, and I apologize in advance for Jerry that I've just butchered you surname.
Speaker A:But also written by Dan Levy and Eugene Levy.
Speaker A:Now, anybody I'm hoping listening knows who they are.
Speaker A:If not, they're the father and son in the show, their father and son in real life.
Speaker A:And Eugene is the dad.
Speaker A:Star of American Pie.
Speaker A:There's some famous scenes.
Speaker A:I mean, he's known for his gifts.
Speaker A:Actually, Eugene delivers a lot in his.
Speaker A:His history for gifts.
Speaker A:But.
Speaker A:And there's an additional writer.
Speaker A:So Chris Posabon was one of the other writers.
Speaker A:So what I love, too, is that they're not the only family members in the show.
Speaker A:So Dan's sister is Twyla.
Speaker B:Really?
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:I didn't know that.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:So she is.
Speaker A:So it's all in the family.
Speaker B:How funny.
Speaker A:Which is fabulous.
Speaker A:So as we.
Speaker A:So, folks, you may like him, but you may not know that.
Speaker A:So as you're watching now, it's so interesting to see the dynamic.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Between them because I actually think it probably they can push the comedy a bit because they know each other well enough, you know, because it is hard.
Speaker A:Some of the stuff they're doing is ridiculous.
Speaker A:So you need to trust the other person.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Pull it off.
Speaker A:How they don't snort with laughter all the time.
Speaker A:Like Jordan.
Speaker B:Always love to watch the bloopers.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:The bloopers would be fantastic.
Speaker B:That would be a show in itself.
Speaker A:Absolutely.
Speaker A:Although I think there's probably just a whole lot of falling down and rolling over and totally just can't talk.
Speaker B:Laughing, you know, or even the.
Speaker B:The crew.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:I mean, surely there would be.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:You have to tape your mouth shut or something.
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:So the episode.
Speaker A:Let's set the stage.
Speaker A:The episode.
Speaker A:And we won't give too much away before we dive in, but basically we get introduced to the wealthy Rose family.
Speaker A:So the Rose family.
Speaker A:Johnny, dad, Mora, Mum.
Speaker A:We'll get.
Speaker A:We'll get to Maura.
Speaker A:She's fabulous.
Speaker A:I want to be her when I grow up.
Speaker A:David and Alexis, the fabulous Alexis, they lose their fortune and find themselves in this small little town in the middle of nowhere called Schitt's Creek.
Speaker A:And this is all about their fall from grace.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:Really.
Speaker A:And the episode sort of sets that up.
Speaker A:So this really is setting them up.
Speaker A:And we get to meet the main character.
Speaker A:We meet here is Mayor Roland Schitt.
Speaker A:Now, I need to confess to something here.
Speaker A:Before the detail.
Speaker A:It's only this watch that I'm getting.
Speaker A:How ridiculous the names are.
Speaker B:Oh, yeah, I know.
Speaker B:Rolling.
Speaker A:Roll in.
Speaker A:Shit.
Speaker A:Like, honestly didn't get that.
Speaker B:I was a little bit the same now that I'm watching it.
Speaker B:For the detail.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:Not just enjoyment.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:I'm actually, like, looking at every word and when it.
Speaker B:When it was rolling, I'm like, oh, my God, this is actually hilarious.
Speaker A:I actually rewounded and played it again just to make sure I heard it right.
Speaker A:I'm like, oh, my God, that's so funny.
Speaker A:And there's.
Speaker A:There's more of that as we go through the episodes, which is just beautiful.
Speaker A:So let's sort of.
Speaker A:I'd love to say, I'd love to understand from you now that you're watching again, like you say, we're looking at the detail.
Speaker A:How did the first episode land for you?
Speaker A:Did you notice different things?
Speaker A:How did you feel about it?
Speaker B:Completely different.
Speaker B:Like, again, this time, it's a bit of a.
Speaker B:Not a professional approach, but certainly looking at the accounting side and the accounting viewpoint.
Speaker B:And episode one was just classic.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:You know, there was, you know, Ellie was like, family, leave your finances to me.
Speaker B:And he was our business manager.
Speaker B:He was meant to pay the taxes.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:And it's like that classic scenario which we see in a much more smaller version, you know, in real life.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Where people trust, you know, business owners trust.
Speaker B:Other people are doing the right thing in their business and not.
Speaker B:And they're not across the numbers.
Speaker B:They're not across things.
Speaker A:No.
Speaker B:Really are their responsibility.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:So it was like.
Speaker B:That was funny looking at it in that way, which I did it the first time around.
Speaker B:This time around, it was Just a classic storyline.
Speaker B:Absolutely.
Speaker B:So, you know, that was hilarious.
Speaker B:And the fact that the town was purchased as a joke.
Speaker A:It's so interesting.
Speaker B:So funny.
Speaker A:Funny based on a true story.
Speaker A:So that's actually.
Speaker A:They picked up from somebody.
Speaker A:It's some celebrity actually did that supposedly historically.
Speaker A:So that's where they got that story, that storyline.
Speaker A:But also as I noticed when they said that, oh, I bought it as a joke.
Speaker A:And David turns to his dad and said, dad, that's not funny.
Speaker A:And actually, as I'm seeing, I'm like, it sort of isn't like to be so wealthy to go, I'll just buy the town and then forget you bought the.
Speaker B:Exactly.
Speaker A:It's so dismissive.
Speaker A:Like, it's the.
Speaker A:The arrogance or the like that level of wealth and not caring.
Speaker A:Like, oh, yeah, dad, it's not okay.
Speaker B:And it's funny how between the father and the son, they take turns at being the reasonable one.
Speaker A:Yeah, they do.
Speaker B:Like, sometimes one of them is reasonable and the other time the other.
Speaker B:But they're never both reasonable at the same time.
Speaker A:No.
Speaker A:No.
Speaker A:And it's so interesting, as I was watching it, the thing that stood out for me actually so interestingly.
Speaker A:Zero Cringe.
Speaker A:Whereas I have to admit, the first watch of this series, there was moments.
Speaker B:I'm like, oh, God, I can't do this.
Speaker B:Yeah, I'm not going to do this.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:But so in the joke, but like you loving the details.
Speaker A:So when we.
Speaker A:When the episode literally starts there at this house.
Speaker A:Well, their home, the world.
Speaker A:The Rose Mansion.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:And I don't know whether you notice, but the ceilings are like Botticelli painted ceilings with gold filigree and totally so gaudy and honestly, repulsive.
Speaker A:Like, it's just.
Speaker A:And.
Speaker A:And you wouldn't want to live in that house, would you want to live in that house?
Speaker B:I would.
Speaker A:Really?
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Oh, no.
Speaker A:It looks like one of those places that has beautiful couches that aren't comfortable.
Speaker B:You know, I'm sure there are separate rooms with comfy couches.
Speaker A:Do you.
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:Do you think the side will.
Speaker B:Look, they would just hang out in their plush bedrooms with like all the mod cons and.
Speaker B:Oh, I'm sure you'll be just fine there, Peter.
Speaker B:Well, I'm sure you'll be fine.
Speaker A:I'm sure I'll probably be in the little pool cabana or something because I couldn't cope with all the.
Speaker A:Interestingly, how's this?
Speaker A:When I was doing some digging, that mansion at the beginning was once owned by Lisa Vanderpump.
Speaker A:The Aussie vanderpump rules.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:So she made a comment about that after the show, like, that's my old house, you know, hilarious.
Speaker A:Like crazy.
Speaker B:In your research there, do you know who owns it now?
Speaker A:No.
Speaker A:So it.
Speaker A:Because I think it had just got knocked down and rebuilt or something, which is ridiculous when you look at the size of the thing.
Speaker A:But no, I don't know.
Speaker A:Well, hopefully a listener will find that out for us and they can.
Speaker A:They can let us know what they.
Speaker A:Whether there's somebody interesting or just another wealth that owns it now.
Speaker B:What a shame to knock that down.
Speaker A:Yeah, well, I mean, that's so.
Speaker B:Sure, let's talk about wealth.
Speaker B:Talk about wealth.
Speaker A:Oh, do you ever.
Speaker B:To buy that and knock it down.
Speaker A:And hey, here's a money lesson.
Speaker A:Like when you buy a house that big, those are actually not necessarily great investments because there's two other people on the planet that can afford to buy that house.
Speaker A:And if they're not interested in buying, when you want to sell, people like that happens on the harbour here.
Speaker A:You know, people like, oh, but I, you know, I spent 10 million on this, I could only sell for nine.
Speaker A:Well, that's.
Speaker A:Cause there was one person that turned up to the buyer.
Speaker B:Exactly.
Speaker A:You know, it's.
Speaker A:It's pricing people, most people out of the market.
Speaker A:You know, true growth happens at the other end.
Speaker A:You know, lots of buyers, lots of people competing.
Speaker B:Absolutely.
Speaker B:Supply and demand.
Speaker A:Yeah, exactly.
Speaker A:So, yeah, I thought setting the scene.
Speaker A:That cracks me up.
Speaker A:The other thing was we got what is, I think is a perfect Maura moment, really early on.
Speaker B:The wigs.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker B:My very soul has been kidnapped.
Speaker B:There's no ransom.
Speaker B:No one's coming to save me.
Speaker B:We got 15 minutes to collect our personals.
Speaker B:Can we pick up the page?
Speaker B:No, no.
Speaker A:Did you put Kristy with Robin?
Speaker A:They don't like each other.
Speaker A:No, no.
Speaker B:The Chuck is breaking act.
Speaker A:We love that scene.
Speaker A:And what we didn't know when we first started the show, of course, first episode is that's just the beginning of Nora.
Speaker B:Totally.
Speaker A:I mean, she is fabulous.
Speaker B:Honestly, I.
Speaker B:I can't imagine anyone else doing that role.
Speaker B:I mean, I'm sure there would be other people if she wasn't available, but I.
Speaker B:She's just so perfect.
Speaker A:Well, I believe when they were.
Speaker A:When they were originally doing the pilot, I think so that first thing, and they were trying to get funding and get interest in actually doing a series, they asked Catherine O'Hara to come and just read for it.
Speaker A:And she's like, ah, yeah, whatever.
Speaker A:I'm sure it Won't be anything but.
Speaker A:She just went to town, which they've.
Speaker A:So Eugene leaving.
Speaker A:She have worked together for years and I think Dan said, you know, we'd never consider anybody else.
Speaker A:She's just.
Speaker A:She's just got to go full tilt.
Speaker B:Perfection.
Speaker A:And most of people won't do that.
Speaker B:No.
Speaker A:Because they won't want to look that ridiculous.
Speaker B:So is her accent natural, do you know?
Speaker A:No, no, she put that on.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Fantastic.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:Which is exactly what people in that world do too.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Like we want to sound more glass.
Speaker A:Serious and wealthy and almost British, but not quite because you don't want to sound like it's this bizarre.
Speaker A:I know, I know it's.
Speaker B:And.
Speaker B:But she's such a natural.
Speaker B:It just came so naturally, you know, it was just great.
Speaker A:Just.
Speaker A:Yeah, she just cracks it.
Speaker A:I mean, really fabulously.
Speaker A:And then soon after that was a moment too, I loved where they're all sitting on the one couch that's left.
Speaker A:The IRS have ripped the house clean of all of the goods and chattels and they've got the one couch, but behind them is the.
Speaker A:This huge mural.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:And what?
Speaker A:And I was looking at the painting and they've positioned themselves like they're, you know, the.
Speaker A:The grace of Monaco.
Speaker A:I don't know, it's like they had the.
Speaker A:The jewels over their head, like.
Speaker A:Like they were princes and.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:I'm like, wow.
Speaker A:And I bet you that's what happens.
Speaker A:I bet you there's some poor artist in LA or other places that gets.
Speaker B:Us to do these pictures and imagine what they're thinking.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker B:Like, oh, just roll your eyes, cringe, worry.
Speaker B:I know, I know.
Speaker A:Aren't you just roll around with your money.
Speaker A:Why do you have to have this ridiculous.
Speaker B:They should redo the portrait in Cheers Creek.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker A:Oh, that'd be fantastic with the backdrop.
Speaker A:Oh, that would be awesome.
Speaker A:Is there any other.
Speaker A:I mean, there's so many.
Speaker A:Honestly, there's so many notes I made as we went through.
Speaker A:There's one progressively through this episode.
Speaker A:Moira is getting more and more like just depressed because they arrive at the motel.
Speaker A:It's horrific.
Speaker A:It's like nothing they've ever been to.
Speaker A:It actually does.
Speaker A:To be fair, I don't think it looks that bad as motels go.
Speaker A:I mean, we've all been to a tiny motel where you just want a bit, Right?
Speaker B:Sure.
Speaker A:It's not great.
Speaker B:No.
Speaker A:Don't get me wrong.
Speaker A:But it's.
Speaker A:It's not like you're going to get stabbed bad, but it.
Speaker B:Well, there's no one there.
Speaker B:No, but it's the comparison correct where they've come from to where they've landed.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:And it's just that.
Speaker B:It's just hilarious.
Speaker B:It's just so.
Speaker B:But I can't even believe.
Speaker B:The towels were pretty white, you know.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:So like that floral towels or.
Speaker B:Yes, it does look good.
Speaker B:That's a good correct.
Speaker A:Like, that's my thing, too.
Speaker A:Can I actually use this towel?
Speaker B:Exactly.
Speaker A:I can use that towel.
Speaker B:Exactly.
Speaker B:But I don't know where all that luggage went.
Speaker B:They came off the.
Speaker B:Off the bus with all that luggage.
Speaker B:Oh, that's true.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:I don't know where that went.
Speaker B:So I've got, you know, I've got a few questions.
Speaker A:Oh, this deep.
Speaker B:You're right.
Speaker A:I didn't even realize that.
Speaker B:But when they landed, I mean, I remember when David.
Speaker B:Else's reception, you know, if they had a business center, which I found hilarious.
Speaker A:Stevie.
Speaker A:So we meet Stevie, too.
Speaker A:So she's the other main character we meet in this episode.
Speaker A:And I don't know how that actress kept her face straight either, because she got to deliver some of the driest lines in these.
Speaker A:And with David doing ridiculous.
Speaker A:David.
Speaker A:How she managed to keep a straight face, I don't know.
Speaker B:I just love him.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:Isn't he fabulous?
Speaker B:He's just.
Speaker B:You just want to be best friends with him.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:Because he'd be so entertaining.
Speaker B:So entertaining.
Speaker A:I mean, you'd think he was ridiculous, but he'd be fabulous.
Speaker B:He'd be the best friend ever.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:To House.
Speaker B:And so honest.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:Horribly so.
Speaker B:But also in element in at times.
Speaker B:So down to earth.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:In moments.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:It's so reasonable and like.
Speaker B:No, that doesn't make sense.
Speaker B:Like.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker B:So I just love him.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:And it was interesting, actually, because it.
Speaker A:On reflection, I'm looking at them all and I thought, actually, so David didn't show much of his character in this.
Speaker A:It was a lot of drama and a lot of reaction.
Speaker A:Johnny, though, honestly, came across as a good guy, even in the first episode.
Speaker A:I mean, he's ridiculous.
Speaker A:And he's clearly got them in this situation due to a lack of interest in one's finances.
Speaker A:But he, like, he seems to really care and he's quite kind.
Speaker A:I mean, he lets Roland go in that.
Speaker A:Roland is sitting in their room.
Speaker A:He won't leave.
Speaker A:They've only just arrived.
Speaker A:They're tired.
Speaker A:And he lets that go far longer than I would.
Speaker A:I reckon I would have cracked it.
Speaker B:Well before when he was yelling at him, you know, he was apologetic while he was yelling yes.
Speaker A:It seems like he's got, like, a kind heart to say that.
Speaker A:I got my take on that.
Speaker A:You know, watching it again.
Speaker B:Totally.
Speaker A:And.
Speaker A:And we get to see that much earlier from him than we do the others, I think.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:The others really are spoiled at this point.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:They're still quite up it.
Speaker B:But even that he took Moira's lead and Moira was like, get him out.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:You know, and he was like, okay.
Speaker B:And he had to do it.
Speaker A:Very dull.
Speaker A:Yeah, I'll get on that.
Speaker B:So the dynamic is the same in every family, every relationship.
Speaker A:Absolutely.
Speaker A:I love to.
Speaker A:I've got one here from Maura and honestly, you could write a book or have.
Speaker A:I'm sure there already exists a coffee table book of things Maura said.
Speaker B:Totally.
Speaker B:I just want a bathtub and a long extension cord, please.
Speaker B:I love that she's so good.
Speaker A:It's just so miserable.
Speaker B:I look at that.
Speaker A:But to have the wherewithal, to be able to, you know, you come up with these fabulous lines as she's doing it.
Speaker A:Of course.
Speaker A:Of course she isn't.
Speaker A:The writers are doing it, but I just thought it's just so precious.
Speaker A:She's fabulous.
Speaker A:What else?
Speaker A:Were there any other scenes you felt were like, peak.
Speaker A:Peak, Schitt's Creek.
Speaker B:Well, one thing I thought was interesting watching it a second time round was when Alexis was saying that Stavros is going to come and pick her up.
Speaker B:And you know what?
Speaker A:She's a disaster.
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker A:She's that girlfriend.
Speaker A:You'd want to pull him aside like darling.
Speaker A:Really?
Speaker B:Oh, my God.
Speaker B:And he just told me that he could potentially see himself considering saying I love you at some point sometime soon.
Speaker A:So red flag, Red flag.
Speaker B:But in real.
Speaker B:In reality, this is, you know, that night in shining armor that people think you're gonna save.
Speaker B:Someone's gonna come and save me.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:And so I found that.
Speaker B:And.
Speaker B:And of course, you know, she's at the same time trying to tell her family that it's quite comfortable.
Speaker B:It's not that bad.
Speaker A:It's cute.
Speaker B:It's cute.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Like to make it.
Speaker B:She doesn't feel so bad leaving them behind.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:But, yeah.
Speaker B:Star is coming to save.
Speaker B:Who's going to come and pick her up.
Speaker B:They've been together for three months and they've broken up five times in that period.
Speaker B:But he's going to come and save her.
Speaker B:But of course.
Speaker B:Course, he never rocks up.
Speaker A:No.
Speaker B:And instead breaks up with her and goes to some party.
Speaker B:But when that was happening and when Moira found out about it, you Know, she kind of caught herselfish.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:And was like, I forbid you for abandoning your family.
Speaker B:And I found that really, again, first time around, went straight.
Speaker B:Straight over me.
Speaker B:But you're looking at now from a professional perspective, which is like that money story.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:That we hear about all the time.
Speaker B:And, you know, what was your childhood like?
Speaker B:And.
Speaker B:And this is that kind of shame, if you like.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:For wanting to get out.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:And do things differently.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:And coming.
Speaker B:So I completely understand Morris perspective, which is that we're all in this together.
Speaker B:We've got to be together.
Speaker B:We're getting out of here together.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:But I can also see another side, which is, you know, if your child wants to do things differently to you.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Should we be shaming them?
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker B:Guilting them.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker B:Or should we be like, fly, be free.
Speaker B:Go for it.
Speaker B:Like, yeah.
Speaker A:Supportively.
Speaker A:But go.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:So we got a few other things in this episode, too.
Speaker A:So we got the first ew from Alexis.
Speaker A:We will have many.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker A:Ew.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker A:This is another one of the gifts.
Speaker A:Totally you, David.
Speaker A:We also got.
Speaker A:Which I've realized as I've started rewatching, name drops, which I missed.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:In the first watch, I'm like, you sort of.
Speaker A:You sort of acknowledged that they were talking about people they hung out with, but I didn't actually pick up on who.
Speaker A:So this episode has three.
Speaker A:It's got Mary Kate Olson.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker A:They talk about.
Speaker A:It's got Martha Stewart.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker A:And in a horribly ironic and now terrible reference, Diddy and the White Party.
Speaker A:I don't know whether you picked up.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:She's talking about how she was going to be Stavros's date.
Speaker B:That's why Stavros couldn't come, because I.
Speaker A:Was going to go to the White.
Speaker B:Party for his date.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:And I'm thinking, wow, I bet she's probably glad she didn't go to Yellow Party.
Speaker B:Now that we know what goes on.
Speaker A:I'm like, oh, wow, Alexis, you got a scot free, darling.
Speaker B:Exactly.
Speaker A:Far up.
Speaker A:But there's a lot of those as we go through.
Speaker B:I do have a question, though.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:What is with the extra large menus of the cafe?
Speaker A:Me too.
Speaker A:That was.
Speaker B:That.
Speaker A:Is there like eight fold outs?
Speaker B:It's hilarious.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:But can I say, and if anybody's listening from the States or Canada, I feel like that's normal in diners there.
Speaker A:I feel like you need to have a choice of 600 things, which puts me into complete paralysis.
Speaker B:They don't even fit on the table.
Speaker A:For them effectively, because they're Trying to.
Speaker B:Fold, Share a menu.
Speaker B:Exactly.
Speaker B:Just go through.
Speaker B:Yeah, exactly.
Speaker A:One menu.
Speaker A:Can we please.
Speaker A:It's as big as the table.
Speaker A:Oh, that's great.
Speaker A:That's exactly what I wrote down.
Speaker B:What the hell's with the menus?
Speaker A:Crazy.
Speaker A:The other thing that I thought was really interesting with.
Speaker A:With Alexis.
Speaker A:Look, once again, my instinct immediately was this is somebody that needs a proper girlfriend.
Speaker A:And I think she probably never had one.
Speaker A:And through the series particularly, you hear stories about the things she's got up to and I'm like, you've never had anybody actually care.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:In terms of a friend, she's got into situations no girlfriend would ever let you get into.
Speaker B:Or parents.
Speaker A:Correct.
Speaker A:Where are the parents?
Speaker A:How did she end up in another country and you didn't notice?
Speaker B:Exactly.
Speaker A:What is that about?
Speaker A:I know.
Speaker B:I mean, this is.
Speaker B:I think, you know, that scene that's.
Speaker B:That, you know, that's the scene that they would find themselves in, that with that wealth and that the people that they're around.
Speaker B:That would be normal to be on a jet and go into another country and.
Speaker A:And just go, well, they'll be fine.
Speaker A:They went on a private jet.
Speaker B:Yeah, exactly.
Speaker A:You know, instead, you're dropping your child into a pretty toxic, potentially predatory environment.
Speaker A:But, yeah, I think.
Speaker A:I mean it.
Speaker A:And we probably do need to spend a minute on Roland, that man.
Speaker A:I mean, how that actor mate can make himself so repulsive, so funny, that's gross.
Speaker A:We will get to him in upcoming episodes because it gets worse.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:But he does a fabulous job.
Speaker B:It's like he's doing it on purpose.
Speaker B:Honestly, it's like he's.
Speaker B:He's doing it on purpose, like.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:Surely this is not normal behavior.
Speaker B:But it is.
Speaker B:That is normal behavior.
Speaker B:I think.
Speaker A:And I think, yeah, I think it's his instinct.
Speaker A:It's just how he is.
Speaker B:Totally.
Speaker A:That's.
Speaker A:Well, that's what he thinks the big man does.
Speaker A:And of course, I think he's competing with who he sees in Johnny as the big man.
Speaker A:Neither of whom are.
Speaker B:No, as it turns out, definitely not.
Speaker A:Both failures in their own way.
Speaker B:Totally.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker B:And then there's also the Moira's breakdown for losing her diamond earrings and Johnny ended up moving them.
Speaker B:But I found that hilarious that, that, you know, at this point, I mean, I'm sure in the olden days her diamond earrings would have been, you know, a needle in the haystack for them.
Speaker A:Yes, yes.
Speaker B:Now all of a sudden, her diamond earrings are the absolute biggest asset she owns right now.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:And the fact they weren't in that tissue box that she had them in.
Speaker A:Well, did you know she said she.
Speaker A:She snuck them under her tongue.
Speaker B:I heard that.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:I liked them.
Speaker B:I know, I know.
Speaker B:It's the only thing that would fit out of my tongue.
Speaker B:We've been robbed.
Speaker B:Right now, some local is pawning my earrings for crank.
Speaker B:Your diamonds?
Speaker B:Yes, my diamonds.
Speaker B:The one thing I could hide under my tongue.
Speaker B:Exactly.
Speaker B:Meanwhile, they've got luggage bags full of stuff.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:But, you know, it's so funny.
Speaker A:And she just.
Speaker A:The way she loses it is just so flipped.
Speaker A:And I had in the research another note here that Dan Levy said that when she really cracks it.
Speaker A:So in the room together and she's just losing her mind.
Speaker A:And this is before Johnny comes in and says, it's all right, it's all right.
Speaker A:I've, you know, I've hidden them, actually.
Speaker A:You'll see.
Speaker A:So people go and go and look back at this because you'll see that David's actually got his hand over his mouth.
Speaker A:More like, oh, God, what's going on?
Speaker A:Dan Levy said he was cracking up so much, they had to do so many takes that he had to cover his mouth or they weren't going to be able to take because he just couldn't.
Speaker A:Like, I can't even look at it.
Speaker A:Like, I want the bloopers.
Speaker B:Yeah, I want to see the bloopers.
Speaker B:I think that'd be funnier than the.
Speaker A:Actual show because I actually.
Speaker A:I do too, because also, I reckon there was stuff they held back that went too far.
Speaker A:You know, I think that'd be so funny.
Speaker A:So, yeah, because remembering this has got to get through the rules of what you can say, RPG or whatever show.
Speaker A:And I'm sure there's some stuff that just went way over that line.
Speaker B:I reckon it should be like a documentary of, like, the producers and stuff on that show just to share some of the stories.
Speaker B:So if you watch one at the end.
Speaker B:No.
Speaker A:So, yeah.
Speaker A:So on Netflix, there's actually a final get together of all the cast.
Speaker A:They read some letters from people because there was a whole lot they did for the lgbtq, you know, we people and community.
Speaker A:So it actually is worth seeing.
Speaker A:If you haven't.
Speaker A:It's on Netflix and it'll show up, you know, sort of as the next thing you should watch.
Speaker A:So it's some of that.
Speaker A:It's not actually bloopers as much as them talking about the show and the producers, even the costume designers.
Speaker A:Like, it's really fascinating.
Speaker B:Yeah, yeah, I really watched that.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker B:Because I love, like, the Reality side of these shows.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:Because it'd just be so funny.
Speaker A:Yeah, it would be.
Speaker A:And I want to know how they come up with some of this.
Speaker A:So I've got one note here when.
Speaker A:So, Stevie.
Speaker A:Sorry, Dave.
Speaker A:No, I think it's Johnny is looking for Roland because he's angry about the doors.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:So he takes the doors off the hotel at.
Speaker A:What?
Speaker B:What?
Speaker A:Anyway, yeah.
Speaker A:So he's like, stevie, I need to.
Speaker A:Where's Roland?
Speaker A:Where's Roland?
Speaker A:Where's Roland?
Speaker A:And she's sort of telling him where the house is.
Speaker A:And then she goes, it's a house with a truck in the driveway.
Speaker A:There's a bumper sticker of a naked Helen Mirren.
Speaker A:Like, who thinks of that detail?
Speaker B:So random.
Speaker B:I mean, perfect.
Speaker B:Roland.
Speaker B:Exactly.
Speaker A:We all do.
Speaker A:She's fabulous.
Speaker A:But still.
Speaker B:I know.
Speaker A:I just, like, just love it.
Speaker B:And where in Schitt's Creek do they find these stickers?
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:Like, it's just so random.
Speaker B:The whole thing is so random and beautifully weird.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:This is celebrating the weirdos, which I think is actually a bit of a gift because so much of what we watch on TV and in movies is just too perfect, too beautiful.
Speaker B:But we're all a little bit weird.
Speaker B:So it's kind of celebrating normal.
Speaker B:That's.
Speaker B:Or it's normalizing weird.
Speaker A:It is.
Speaker B:You know, it's letting people be people.
Speaker B:Exactly.
Speaker A:Go with it.
Speaker A:Own it.
Speaker B:Absolutely.
Speaker A:The weirdo dancing on the hill, you know, And.
Speaker A:And Johnny, this is.
Speaker A:And this is what I mean about him being a good guy.
Speaker A:He's yelling at Roland about this.
Speaker A:I need doors for my family.
Speaker A:And he says, I need them before it gets dark.
Speaker A:My son is afraid of moths.
Speaker B:The doors.
Speaker B:I want my doors back.
Speaker B:Oh.
Speaker B:Before it gets.
Speaker B:That's dark.
Speaker B:My son is afraid of moths.
Speaker B:Oh.
Speaker A:And like, it's funny, but it's also gorgeous.
Speaker A:Your adult son, worried about him, began asleep.
Speaker B:And it's also really humbling, I think, to see that at the end of the day, doesn't matter how wealthy you are.
Speaker B:We're all equal.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:We're all human.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:So I think that that's a really.
Speaker B:And.
Speaker B:And we can interact in the same way.
Speaker B:The fact that Stevie can give back the same kind of jokes.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Oh.
Speaker B:Is fantastic.
Speaker A:Zingers between.
Speaker A:Between Moira and Stevie, like, I tell you, they get.
Speaker A:To be fair, they probably get some of the best lines in the show.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Because of the.
Speaker A:Well, you know, Stevie's delivering them deadpan.
Speaker A:And Moira is just going to town.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Like, it's just drama.
Speaker A:Drama.
Speaker B:I just love Moira.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Oh.
Speaker A:I mean, honestly, I want to be her when I grow up.
Speaker A:I just think she's the best thing ever.
Speaker A:Now.
Speaker A:We should dive in.
Speaker A:Have I got any.
Speaker A:Hold on, have I got any other little Easter eggs?
Speaker A:I think we covered them all.
Speaker A:The name drops.
Speaker A:So the money takeaways.
Speaker A:Let's just dive into this because this is shit with money, folks.
Speaker A:We do remember it.
Speaker A:I'm, you know, leaning towards money stuff mine.
Speaker A:Absolutely.
Speaker A:My takeaway was leave your finances to me.
Speaker A:He said.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:And so many of us are like that with money.
Speaker A:You and I have both encountered it, even our clients or people.
Speaker A:We've all come to us.
Speaker A:Who?
Speaker A:I just don't want to know.
Speaker A:Can you just do it, please?
Speaker A:And I get why it's not their thing.
Speaker A:But while this story is uniquely weird in a broad sense, it's actually not uncommon in general sense.
Speaker A:Like in the.
Speaker A:Somebody rips them off.
Speaker A:Since supposedly in Hollywood this happens to most of them early on.
Speaker A:So, you know, Matt Damon, I believe, got ripped off by an early manager who stole all his early money from the great movies.
Speaker A:He did.
Speaker A:Like it's really common because people just, oh, that's not my thing.
Speaker A:I'm the actor or I'm the.
Speaker A:Whoever.
Speaker A:Somebody else can look after the money.
Speaker A:And it's.
Speaker A:It's actually exposing you in such a big way, isn't it?
Speaker B:Totally.
Speaker B:You mean you need visibility?
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:In business and in life.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker B:You know, there is no knight in shining armor.
Speaker B:No one's going to save you.
Speaker B:And you take responsibility.
Speaker B:These is, you know, if you're a director of a company, you've got responsibilities, you've got personal liabilities potentially on certain.
Speaker B:Certain things.
Speaker B:So living it in someone else's hand is really leaving the door open, isn't it, to so much risk?
Speaker A:It is.
Speaker A:And you know what?
Speaker A:If you're going to work so hard, so, you know, if you're listening and you're probably working a.
Speaker A:You know, work hard in your job, maybe you do extra hours.
Speaker A:It feels like hard work.
Speaker A:You may.
Speaker A:Oh, but I want that pay rise.
Speaker A:I want that bonus now.
Speaker A:If you're that focused on getting that income, make sure where it goes is somewhere you understand and you at least know where it is.
Speaker A:You know, I think I understand not wanting to worry about it, but a little bit of attention to it would just mean this type of thing doesn't happen.
Speaker B:Totally.
Speaker B:And look, you know, I'm sure you're a.
Speaker B:Well, I know Peter, you're a fan of automations.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:So it doesn't have to be, you know, that labor intense.
Speaker B:No, but it's being able, it's.
Speaker B:It's knowing where you could go for information and being able to, to check on things and have visibility on things at any time and, and actually doing those check ins.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:And actually keeping an eye on things I think is so important.
Speaker B:And these days it's so easy to get access to information.
Speaker A:It is.
Speaker B:It's not like the old.
Speaker B:And as we had to go into.
Speaker A:A bank branch or you know, dive into your files.
Speaker A:Where's that statement that I filed six.
Speaker B:Months to get your statement from, you know, from one of your funds?
Speaker A:So true.
Speaker B:It's not like that anymore.
Speaker B:We can, there's apps for everything.
Speaker B:You can log in and get real time information, which I think is fantastic.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:But we need to be doing it.
Speaker A:We do.
Speaker A:And look, we'll cover in some later episodes.
Speaker A:We'll give you some tips for that.
Speaker A:Because you're absolutely right at the very least to have an app on your phone that has a feed of every financial thing you own in one place so that you're just aware of it.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:You don't need to be looking every day.
Speaker A:You don't even need to be looking every week.
Speaker A:But it's so that you know where it is first step.
Speaker A:There will be people listening who may not even be able to tell us what their super fund name is, where it's invested, like we get it, that's okay, you're normal, this is regular.
Speaker A:But now's the time.
Speaker A:Just know where it is.
Speaker B:Absolutely.
Speaker A:Have a vague sense of how much is in it.
Speaker B:Absolutely.
Speaker A:You know, and that's the start because what happened to Johnny and that family is not that unusual.
Speaker B:No, it's very, very common.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker B:And you know, in business I often tell people, particularly when they're starting, you know, opening a cafe.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker B:Make sure you know how to make a coffee.
Speaker B:You know, it's all good and well to hire a Bruce, but if they call in sick 28 minutes before their shift.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:You know, you may need to jump behind the coffee machine and get some coffee.
Speaker B:So I'm not saying you have to do everything, but you need to have backup plans, insurance policies in place, all sorts of things.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:So that you are across everything.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:And I think that's related quite nicely to Johnny, Johnny's situation.
Speaker A:Oh, it's clear.
Speaker A:He in no way was involved.
Speaker B:He was so not involved in the financial side.
Speaker A:Really.
Speaker A:I think, I'm not sure because he describes, I think there was a Quote, and I might be getting an episode ahead here, but I, I hired people who hired people that know how to, how to do interview.
Speaker A:Like he.
Speaker A:It's basically.
Speaker A:He was so removed.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker A:From the day to operations.
Speaker A:He actually never had done any of this himself.
Speaker B:There you go.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:So it's, it's just not what we see as the way corporates work is not how you run your own business.
Speaker B:No, definitely not.
Speaker A:It's just not.
Speaker A:We've got to be like you say, hands on.
Speaker A:We've got to be aware of things.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:We don't have to do everything, but we need to.
Speaker A:In fact, you shouldn't.
Speaker B:No, but we need to know that someone is doing it and they're doing it to a really high standard.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:And if they aren't doing it, we've got plans in place for someone else to be able to do it to a standard that we're happy with.
Speaker B:That's essentially your responsibility as a business owner or in charge of your own personal finances.
Speaker A:Correct.
Speaker B:You have a responsibility to yourself, to your partner, to your children, to your family, to other people that may be dependent on you and you need to take responsibility for that.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:And I'm betting you've come across people that have been referred to you that, that really like maybe had a bookkeeper or an accountant doing all this stuff that just had no clue what was going on.
Speaker B:Most of our clients that come to us.
Speaker B:Us come to us because they have no idea what's going on.
Speaker B:And they need visibility, they need education.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:And they need accountability.
Speaker A:Fair enough.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:We're not born knowing this.
Speaker A:Nobody hands you a manual when you start your business.
Speaker A:Maybe we should, maybe there should be a manual.
Speaker B:You know, you're going to hear me talk about this a lot, but you know, we need to be teaching this in schools.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:They don't teach us these things at school, which is just crazy.
Speaker B:But.
Speaker B:So we're all meant to learn it.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:100.
Speaker A:So now we, we did want to include in each of these episodes in part because it's a great name but also, you know, any life lesson.
Speaker A:Shit happens, Right?
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:As evidenced by what happens to the Roses.
Speaker A:Is there any moment or gem from this episode you think was a bit of a life lesson?
Speaker A:Was there anything there aside from what we've covered?
Speaker A:You think like, yeah, we should all be taking that on board.
Speaker B:Oh, so many.
Speaker B:So many.
Speaker B:But you know.
Speaker B:Yeah, I think the big one is like, like, you know, agency and, and taking control and.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Being able to make decisions for yourself and Be across all the numbers.
Speaker B:But also I think for Morris perspective, being the partner.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:In the situation, being more involved.
Speaker A:The passive partner.
Speaker B:Totally.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:And instead of just kind of enjoying the fruits, actually taking and clearly capable.
Speaker B:Absolutely.
Speaker B:Very intelligent and switched on and totally able.
Speaker B:She would be a fantastic business owner, you know, so I.
Speaker B:There's definitely not an inability from her part to participate in the business.
Speaker B:So I think, you know, as a grown adult, she also should be taking responsibility for her financial security.
Speaker A:Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker A:Absolutely.
Speaker A:For me, I think I really did notice, like I said, the difference between Johnny and the others.
Speaker A:So to me, you know, for this episode, David and Alexis and Maura.
Speaker A:Clueless.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:But really sort of disinterested in others and.
Speaker A:And borderline cruel.
Speaker A:You know, like there was a.
Speaker A:There was a judgment or answer there.
Speaker A:Whereas Johnny, clueless but polite and sort of pretty kind really.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Like there was, there was a difference there.
Speaker B:Totally.
Speaker B:He was much more connect.
Speaker B:Able to connect with people.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:Like Stevie at the front counter and stuff.
Speaker B:Correct.
Speaker B:He was much better.
Speaker B:Well versed, I suppose, in.
Speaker B:In day to day terminology and how to interact with.
Speaker B:With people.
Speaker B:Whilst the other three are very far removed.
Speaker A:Full ball spoil.
Speaker B:Totally horrendous.
Speaker A:People are here to serve me.
Speaker A:Totally.
Speaker B:And that's the other lesson is that those kids are old enough now.
Speaker B:They should not be relying on Mummy and Daddy at this point.
Speaker B:No, they really should be able to stand on their own two feet at this point.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker B:You know, so yeah, there's.
Speaker B:I think there's a lot of lessons there.
Speaker A:Yes, absolutely.
Speaker A:Well, that's it for today's episode of Shit with Money, folks.
Speaker A:If you loved what you heard, be sure to follow us on Instagram for more tips and updates.
Speaker A:You can find Emma at the accounting division.

Speaker A:Whatever you leave it.
Speaker A:So next time we're gonna be dividing, dive, dividing, diving into episode two.
Speaker B:It's a good one.
Speaker A:It is.
Speaker A:The family starts to sort of settle into their new home.
Speaker A:They don't adjust that gracefully, as it turns out.
Speaker A:It's a bit awkward and bumpy.
Speaker A:Lots to unpack, so, you know.
Speaker A:And lots of money stories to unpack.
