Fleshwater and Haley's Little Bit of Pod.

Treat yourself to McCafe coffee with My Mac is Rewards.

Welcome to A Little Bit of Pod.

Nah, she moved at the weekend.

We mentioned this on the Big Pied Producer, can't wait, but there's been an absolute mammoth

fuck up.

I'll say it.

Yeah.

How was I supposed to know?

How was I supposed to know?

Well, because when you look at a place to move into, you'd think about these things.

You look at them and go, oh, that's not going to work.

No, I just go, oh, my friend owns this house and she has a cat.

I'm moving it.

Yeah, okay.

Yeah.

But your bed didn't fit.

Nah.

So what size bed do you have?

Just a queen.

But it's a queen for a queen, you know?

Yeah.

Queen for a queen.

Thank you.

No, it's one of those solid ones, though.

Like it doesn't come apart.

Yeah, because a lot of places will split, won't they?

Yeah.

New split base.

You can't take it apart.

It's not a slat base that can be taken apart and reassembled.

No.

Just a big box.

I hate those.

I'm going to say it.

Yeah, they are painted.

They're squeaky when you're doing it.

What?

Slat?

Oh, my God.

I don't buy slat beds because it ruins your humps.

Yeah, it does.

Well, too many screws.

Well, the solid base didn't fit, so I've gone and bought.

You're not.

Come on, Shagga.

You must know that.

Fuck, mate.

Any bed will get a bloody hearty with me on top of it.

Slat, bloody base, bloody, just a mattress on the floor.

The whole house is just like, ehh.

Yeah.

Oh, it's an earthquake.

Nah, it's a fucking earthquake.

Very evil rhythm.

Just bloody Shagga right there.

Shagga.

Forty Shagga.

Shagga.

I mean, it's such a rhythmic frequency that it dislodges the

lot of things.

Yeah.

You've been known to pump off the old Richter at a low scale.

Yeah, boll.

Yeah.

Geonet.

Yeah, they said it's a very shallow quake, but it rumbled on for all of 20 seconds.

But even roll.

It's another cumul short-sharp jolt at .5.

I know, we feel them out my way.

Yeah.

Sorry, Carl Ween.

You've got a box.

You've got a box base.

Yes.

And you just, well, you cannot fit it into your bedroom door?

No.

So it's a three-story house, so two flats of stairs.

The first set of stairs, we got it up perfect.

Did you pivot?

We pivoted a lot.

Okay, pivot.

My friend slash now flatmate who owns the home said, yeah, shove it.

Who cares if it hits the walls?

Oh, Jesus.

It's her wall.

Don't treat my house like that.

No, I wouldn't.

No, absolutely not.

Well, she's my landlord.

It's fine.

And then as we were trying to get it up the second stairs, we realized that the first

set, we'd use the outdoor door to go out and back in to really get the angle.

Yes.

Because we're on the second floor.

No room for that.

What do you even do then?

The man in you guys coming out says, the man in you in your head quietly going, I reckon

I could have figured it out.

Yes.

See, I have the same response.

I was like, I reckon I got it done.

So I had Haim and Georgia helping me and they were like, nah, we can't.

Couple of fucking idiots there.

And then my friend was very determined, so she kept going for it was fine.

They left.

We said, we'll give up.

It's fine.

I'll figure something out.

And then after that, she was like, I really do think we could do this.

And I was like, all right, let's get up there again.

We couldn't.

We couldn't.

We took the handrails off the staircases.

Oh, God.

That's a really good step.

And it still didn't.

I guess what are you going to do now?

Buy a new bed?

Yeah, I've bought a new bed.

Yeah, it's getting delivered today.

And what are you doing with your original one?

Put it on the side of the road.

It's on Facebook Marketplace.

Oh, yeah.

OK.

So you managed to get it down because you would have been halfway up.

Yeah, it was easy to get down.

No, it was easy to get down, but can't get back up.

That's fine.

All right, you should have just got some.

I've got a few pellets.

Yeah, a good pallet bed.

Yeah, make sure it's got no buggies, bugs in it.

Or just go mattress on the floor.

No, no.

I've been living in a mattress and I haven't loved it.

Yeah.

You put the air mattress on top of your mattress.

No.

Oh, my God.

You put the air mattress down and then put the real mattress on top.

It'll be quite fun.

Yeah.

No, I've got to the age where if I need to get to the floor that low,

I'm like, oh, you know what?

Oh, yeah.

Filling the knees in the back.

She got a water bed.

Do you know when I was a kid, I had a water bed.

Did you?

Me and my brother shared one there.

Did you?

I think my parents had a water bed and then they got a real bed

and then gave it to my brother.

And then I used to always share it.

My brother would be like, blah, blah, blah, blah.

How did you empty when it came to moving a water bed?

How did you empty it with a hose?

Do you have a plait yet to plug it in?

Yeah.

And then you'd run the hose out the window or something.

They just can't fucking have a good feel back.

Oh, my God.

They would have been terrible.

They were awful.

I was googling these the other day because I was watching a movie

that was set in the 80s and they had one.

Yeah.

And I was like, do you have to refill it constantly, blah, blah, blah.

Back in the day, 20% of the mattress industry was water beds.

That's fine.

Really?

Yeah.

Yeah.

It was actually a sexual.

Oh, I'm listening.

It was oily.

It was sexual.

It's weird that I was in there as a kid with my brother then.

My brother's old, my parents' old sex bed.

And my single uncle had one growing up and he lived in the same house

as his parents.

He was a shagger.

He was a shagger.

He wouldn't have been sloshing next door to Bloody Ellen

and Marley and they would have heard the whole,

they were noisy too when you'd get in and out of the bed.

Slushy, slushy.

Yeah, yeah.

My parents had one growing up.

Of course.

Of course.

Of course.

Of course.

Of course.

You would like.

Yes, you could.

You could heat them up.

You could bring up the water.

You could, yeah.

And it was like the best.

As a kid, it was so cool.

But now looking back, I'm like, oh, guys, have some taste.

The modern water bed was created by Charles Hall in 1968.

He was a design student at San Francisco State University.

He originally wanted to make an innovative chair.

His first prototype was a vinyl bag chair with 136 kgs of cornstarch inside it.

So silly.

Like a huge stress ball.

Oh, no, that's yuck.

And water beds were banned some places?

Do we know that?

Like, was it a fire or a flooding risk in buildings?

In buildings, right?

If it were, the water would run.

Because there was thousands of, surely there'd pop.

Thousands of litres of water in there.

I think we had to declare it to our landlords.

I bet you did.

Yeah, you would have.

If we were on the second floor.

Insurance.

Yeah.

Yeah, they were real in an Edward Scissor hands situation.

They were always massive.

Oh, where he went through.

He went through all the water beds.

Yeah.

He actually did though, right?

In the movie, didn't he put his fingers through a water bed?

Yeah.

Yeah.

They're gross.

Yeah, gross.

It's almost a water bed factor that they weak.

Yeah.

I think they mostly sold for bed sores now.

Oh, yeah, right.

Keep things moving.

When I was googling.

Bed sores.

So you don't get bed sores.

People who are bed-bound.

Yeah.

Thank you.

Like those old people beds that been in half and sit you up and shit.

Yeah, but the water helps you move around.

Move around.

Okay.

Fell asleep in a bean bag for an hour.

I still do it though.

If I went to a hotel, there was a water bed.

I have a little bit of sex in it.

Yeah.

Really?

No.

Right.

Just a little bit of sex.

If it was just you, would you just have like a really violent way?

Furious way.

One of those real thrashes.

Yeah, yeah, you're moving around making the most of this water bed.
