Well, well, well. What do we have ourselves here? Seems like it might be a sneaky little podcast. Welcome. You're listening to I Said What I Said. I'm Georgia, and I'm Hannah, and it's our mission to make you laugh with our relatable day-to-day life. But we don't want you to laugh too much, because it is our day-to-day life, and that would be kind of rude. Might make us a little sad. But hey, it's also a podcast, so we've got to expect it, right? We don't want pity laughs, we want real laughs. A little bit about us and our backstory. Georgia and I met about three years ago now. Sounds about right. And we met at our current job, workplace, which is retail in the bedding industry. Well, that's accurate. Yep. We won't disclose where we work, because we just don't want to get in trouble in case we say something we shouldn't. Which we will. Yeah, we totally will. Well, first impressions. I thought Hannah seemed nice, but I couldn't tell if it was fake nice to get on my good side. I was a bit sceptical. Now I realise it's fake nice. She's basically just a bitch. Well, speaking of bitches, you had the biggest resting bitch face. I don't know if this girl actually likes me, or I think I could get along with her, but I'm really not sure. I have been told recently in the past by females that I do have quite a resting bitch face, and I'm pretty intimidating. That's a pretty bold thing to tell someone. Can you tell me a bit more about how you got there, so that conversation? Well, obviously this person that told me that, we became close enough that she could tell me that. Oh, that's good. But yeah, I've been told it a couple of times by males as well, I guess. But yeah, apparently I just give off this vibe that I have a resting bitch face, and I'm pretty intimidating until someone gets to know me. So I guess maybe it's just some wall that I have up, like, don't look at me. Don't talk to me. I don't want to know about you. You don't want to know about me. I mean, obviously you can get close enough to be able to have a conversation where they feel comfortable enough to talk to you about that, because that's a pretty big thing to admit to someone. I mean, I admitted it to you, and here we are. Yeah, you were the person. No, it was me. I don't know. I feel like sometimes I give off the same kind of energy, though. Oh, absolutely. Thanks. But also at the same time, you are a pretty nice person that actually asks people questions about themselves, where I feel like sometimes, not that I'm awkward in new social settings or anything, but I can't think of life tips of questions to ask someone straight away, but I feel like it comes quite easy for you. Like, you're always like, what do you do for work? What do you do? What are your hobbies? Like, all this kind of stuff. Like, you actually make the effort to... Pretend to care. No. It seems like you want to get to know someone where I don't think I come across the same. Like, I wait for them to tell me, potentially. I think it's maybe part of our job. Maybe. Because we require information from people to be able to give them the best service and advice. But in order to do that, like, our questions for that are quite tailored. Yeah. And it's not like I can go up to someone and ask them, oh, why does your mattress not fit you? As like the first question to ask them. I have to branch out and think of actual things. And that can be really difficult. I don't think it's spoken about often enough how difficult it is to make friends. Well, make friends as an adult is so hard. It's very time consuming. Like, I don't want to work eight hours and then have to get to know someone. I mean, fair. Fair. I don't know about you, but like, I've made some friends recently as an adult and they've all been out of, I guess, I can't think of the word, but like, coincidence. Like, you and I, for example. Yeah. Who would have thought that working with one another would make us such close friends? Absolutely. But I think that's one of the things that has helped as well. Like, you've seen me get into my whole flustered, like, oh my God, I hate this person. That's really annoying me. And you've been there to help me through that and vice versa. So, I feel like that kind of aspect helps. Yeah. It bonds you together, I guess. Yeah. Yeah. Making friends as an adult is so hard because finding common ground and you've already got opinions formed about things. And then if you make friends with people that don't agree with those opinions, it's so easy, like, not to talk to them or not make the effort. Whereas when you're a kid, you don't really think about that. I know. But like, I also do have, like, friends that find it so easy. Like, you could be in line for, like, a restaurant or something like that. No way. And like, you know, I've got, like, friends that are, like, chatting to these people in this line and, like, telling them about their life and all this kind of stuff. Or like, you know, I'm just like, how do you do it? It's too tiring. It's not even too tiring. I'm just, I must have that resting bitch face. No, it's not for me. I guess now we have an idea of our first impressions of one another. Maybe it might be a good idea to introduce ourselves. I think it's a good idea anyway. Yeah. Let's go. So my name's Hannah, as we said earlier, and I'm 27. I got married in May of 2023. So my husband and I have been together for five years and married for a year this year in May. We have a dog. His name is Freddy and he's five in April. So we got him fairly quickly after getting together, which now I think about, it's kind of funny. Yeah. Well, I'm Georgia, like we established. Apparently I'm also a sarcastic bitch. Whoa! About me, I'm 26. Just a baby. 27 in December. I'm not married. Freddy, Hannah's dog is strangely obsessed with me, which took some time getting used to. Maybe it's just because you smell great because you wear perfume all the time. It smells delish. Maybe he is always licking it off my arm. It's kind of scary. Today when I walked in, he literally had my arm in his mouth. He was chewing on it. Like, welcome to my humble abode. He was welcoming to his home. It actually is kind of cute when you stay over and he stays in bed with you. He comes out and he smells like you. Like I sniffed his head or I think, I'm pretty sure it was his head or like his ears, when you pat his ears. Oh yeah. And I sniffed his head. I know that sounds really fucking awkward, but anyway. And he smells like Georgia. He like genuinely smelled like you. Wow. And I was like, whoa. The dog's wearing some strong-ass perfume. Bougie black European perfume. Yeah. Wow. At least Freddy enjoys it. I mean, I always tell you you smell nice. Yeah, that's true. You're welcome. Someone told me it works though. It's not nice. Oh, really? Yeah. Oh, that's so nice. Yeah. I don't think anyone's ever said anything nice about me. Oh, I get it from my perfume quite often. Yeah. So I keep buying it. Compliments all around. I think I get a nice like engagement ring. Oh, I don't get that. Yes. You have two things people can compliment you on eventually. Well, there we go. More about me. I like to wear perfume. Um, I don't know how to ride a bike. That's a fun fact. That is a fun fact. Um, what else? I don't know. I don't like puzzles. I'm not a person. Wait, what? Yeah. Like I don't really like puzzles. Why? Because they're really hard. Like you have to sit there and concentrate. Did you do them as a kid? No, not really. Ah, that's what it is. Because I did them as a kid and I love a good puzzle. No. It was my COVID activity. Not that I want to bring that up, but like. Oh, there's like a couple in COVID, but I'd rather do like those paint in the lines things. What do you call them? Like you get paint by numbers. Yeah. Yeah. Um, yeah. I can't paint in the lines. I learned that pretty quickly. Can I tell you what we got my brother-in-law for Christmas? I think I have a very good idea, but please tell. So my brother-in-law took a photo of his bum hole on a disposable camera that we had at our wedding. And my husband got him for Kris Kringle this year and he asked for a puzzle. So he took the photo and we blew it up to a 500 piece puzzle of his bum hole and wrapped it up and gave it to him. You have a fun time doing that one. Oh, I reckon it'd be hilarious. I think he started it actually. I think you would learn a lot about yourself after doing a puzzle like that. It's like your fingerprint and everyone's unique. You get to learn what yours is really like. Wow. That'd be really funny. That is really funny. What a gift though. Hey, imagine. I would be pretty horrified if someone gave me a puzzle for Christmas of my bum hole. Like, how did you get that photo? I mean, he knew it was being taken and it wasn't a surprise. He asked for it. He surely deleted those ones. I really wanted to put it on a t-shirt for his box party that he had last year, but I thought maybe walking around with it on a t-shirt in the city probably wasn't the best idea. Oh, he might've gotten a few compliments as well. Put him in some black opium as well and away we go. So, we've obviously been in talks about doing this for quite a while, like a good few months. Oh, I reckon it's been at least 12. We've been laughing about it with reps that come into work and stuff saying like, oh, do you think we're funny? Yeah. Because we think we're pretty funny. I know we do, but I hope it's not just us that thinks we're funny. Right. Because that's so embarrassing. Yeah, that's so embarrassing. Are we an ick now? Nah, we're not trying to be comedian. No, but I could be. Alright. I think we just wanted to. I put my mind to it. The whole reason why we wanted to do a podcast was not only to be funny. I think for us, it's like a great outlet for us in terms of our day-to-day drama. Yeah. And I think we're very relatable. We're mid-twenties. One of us is married, one of us isn't. We're mates that met at work. Yep. We spend a fuckload of time with one another. Yeah, we do. We spend a lot of the week together. We know a lot about each other, which is not a bad thing. No. In fact, touching back on what we spoke earlier about making friends as adults. Obviously, we spend a lot of time that we don't have to put effort into to make that time. Yeah. But things like that don't always come naturally, and I think it's a credit to us for making it work and becoming friends. Although you would say acquaintances, but whatever. It depends how long we've been friends for. You've now reached friend status. Oh, that's great. Other people who I won't name, but if they listen to this, they probably know who they are. They are my acquaintances, not my friends. Let's just establish that real early. Yeah. If you're listening, acquaintance. Kidding. She's really not, though. Yeah. That's only people we work with, though. Yeah. But I think we decided that making a podcast was something fun for us to do outside of our sometimes stressful job. Yeah. Just to relax. Absolutely. And have a laugh. Maybe a cheeky beverage. Oh, totally a beverage. Or two. We were going to call ourselves Sip With Us. Yeah, we were. But we weren't sure about that. No. We like I Said What I Said. I really like I Said What I Said. Which actually brings into how we came up with our name. Totally. Took only a few hours. Like three. Yeah. But that's probably pretty good. Some people probably have constant research being like, do you like this? No. Do you like this? No. Do you like that? No. No. Well, we sat down one night and we said, I Said What I Said. And here we are. No, I really like it because we're the type of people that aren't afraid to say how we feel and aren't afraid to commit to what we've said. No. And I feel like honesty is the best policy. Yeah. And I feel like I Said What I Said encapsulates how we feel. Yeah. I think it's great. I do too. I really like it. When I've told people Hannah and I are thinking about doing this and we're going to call it this, they're like, oh, that's such a cool name. Yeah, right. I'm like, oh, thank God. Yeah. I'm so glad. Well, it worked out pretty well in the end. I agree. The way how this goes. It pans out. We've got one listener and it's us. So yeah, I guess this is going to be our little outlet where we come to to really get all of our stress and frustration out. Yeah, I think it's like our little challenge for 2024. I mean, big in, starting a podcast, big in. Exactly. And if it doesn't work, it doesn't work. But you know what? At least we tried. Absolutely. We'll see how we go. How much added stress it adds to our lives. Yeah. I'll bring my attitude into this podcast. I feel like my attitude can be pretty relatable sometimes. Totally. The pretty shit attitudes. You said it. Anyway, that's fine. We're moving on. We'll move on to ins and outs. Ins and outs for 2024. Okay. Do you want to go first? Well, I don't really have any outs. Like, I don't know. An out was last year. Like, last year's gone. 2023 is already out. Yeah. I don't know, like, what I want as an out. I guess out for me would be like, I don't know. I have a lot of stresses. Like, I stress a lot, but it's mostly like... Internally? Yeah. So like, over dramatic. Like, let's be honest. Like, it doesn't need to be that stressful. Some of it is, but I feel like you keep a lot of that inside. So it eventually hits, like, boiling points and you explode. Yeah. Actually, just stepping back on earlier, one thing you need to know about me is I don't really talk. I don't really tell people things. And here she is wanting to start a fucking podcast. Oh, no, no. We can talk about, like, funny things. I'm not going to sit here and talk about myself. But I have tonight. I mean, I feel like you'll come up in conversation with your, like, anecdotal experiences. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You have to talk about yourself. Yeah. Because how else are people going to get to know me and think, oh, wow, she's actually not that intimidating? She's really funny. Yeah. She's actually a really nice person when you get over her resting bitch face. I mean, all of my friends really like you, so I don't know what the problem is. Yeah, I guess maybe when there's alcohol involved, I'm just a little bit better. I think everyone's better with a little bit of alcohol. Yeah. Like, it just maybe cuts. Maybe I smile a bit more when I'm around alcohol. I haven't said that, though. Like, an in for 2024 for me is to drink more water. Less alcohol, more water. Yeah, okay. I could probably use more water in my life. I think I'm just constantly dehydrated at the moment. Yeah, I think I drank maybe, like, two cups of water today, like, over a whole day. Like, if I'm going to put it in a big shot. Oh, that's more than me. Okay. Well, I'm doing pretty good then. I invested in a water bottle, and I reckon it's been in my car for, like, a week. Oh, I cried when the kettle wasn't boiling. I was like, no. No coffee. You have to drink water. No tea. Oh, God. Do you have any other? Oh, you were doing outs, and I've just gone straight into in. Well, okay. So, outs is 2023. Far out. 2024 is already an out now. Shit. Only almost at the end of January. In for 2024. Not three. Four. I'll learn how to ride a bike at some stage. Yeah, nice. Potentially. I'm excited for you for that. If someone can, I don't know, provide the bike, the helmet, and probably training wheels, because my balance is okay. All right. If you go to Pilates, it should be better than okay. Yeah. But it's not. It's not. I want to start, like, teaching myself how to run. Like, I just want to be more active, because people say it makes you, like. A better person. Yes. Yeah, right. I guess 2024 is all about bettering myself by being less bitchy. I'm really talking to you. 2024 is about making more friends, I guess. I'm excited to see if this exercise situation thought develop out and makes you, like, a happier person. Yeah, we'll see how we go, okay? Mine has nothing to do with exercise, which is funny, because I probably should. But anyway, here we are. I feel like I do so many steps at work. It doesn't even matter. Yeah, you're basically running laps of that store. And FYI, the store is huge. Yeah, it's very big, because we obviously have a lot of mattresses and stuff. So, like, you need to go to the gym when you just cut. Yeah, I don't. I'm just like, I'm tiny, and I don't want to lift this. Can someone else please do it for me? Yeah, totally. I'm a lady. Yeah. All right. So, those are my two ins, and my out was 2023. So, what's your ins and out? Obviously, I said drinking more water. Yeah. The other big one for me is this year, like, the wedding was so expensive last year. And we can discuss that in, like, another episode. But an in for me is definitely saving money. And I think, like, some way that I can do that is by wishlisting things that I really want, because I feel like I impulse bought a fair few things in the first half of last year. Towards the latter half of last year, I think I was better at only ordering things that I felt like I was going to get a good value per wear. They weren't just going to, like, die after being purchased once. But this year, like, if something stays on my wishlist for a couple of months or something like that, then I know that I want to invest the money into purchasing it. It wasn't just a fad, or it wasn't just, like, a whim of the purchase. So, I think that that goes hand in hand. I really like that one. I think I could utilize that as well, because I am guilty of just going, like, oh, I like the look of that. I will buy that. And then, like, I've got plenty of clothes that I've purchased that I've never worn, which is bad. Like, it's just a waste of money. And, like, that money could go towards so many other things. Not that I'm, like, super environmentally conscious, but also, like, buying a whole bunch of stuff you don't need is not great for the environment either. Yeah, exactly. Like, it's not good. Unless you're going to, like, donate it to friends or obviously... Which I have done. I have a lot of friends. Well, actually, I have two friends that I've kind of donated most of my stuff to. Yeah. So, shout out to them. Thanks for taking it off my hands. Totally. Reduce, reuse, recycle. Yeah, exactly right. And sometimes I'm like, oh, that actually looks really good on you. Can I wear that again? Yeah, can I have it back, please? Not back. I'll just, like, reuse it a little bit and then give it back to you. Yeah, that's great. In, sharing a wardrobe. Yeah, it's always in. My other one, and I feel like it's just because I am constantly on my phone at the moment, is reading more. I invested in a Kindle. Again, talking about investing in things. I invested in a Kindle last year and I used it for a little bit and then I just didn't. And I feel like I need to read more just to zone out. Yeah. It's so easy to get encapsulated in your phone and, like, just randomly scroll and end up down, like, the rabbit hole. Whereas reading, it's a different type of utilizing your time. I find it quite cathartic, actually. So I'm looking forward to reading more. We're off to a good start. We're off to a good start. So I definitely think that's the big in for me. I like that. My out this year goes hand in hand in just kind of zoning out more. And it's only saying yes to things that I want to do. I felt like in 2023, I said yes to going out with people or seeing people or things like that because I felt obligated to. So my out is, like, doing things because you feel like you need to, because you want to. And I want to invest my time into things that actually bring me joy. Not feeling like I have to do it to make other people happy. So a bit depressive in the episode, but I feel like it should be a big out for me. And that leads into why we're doing the podcast. I want to invest my time into something that I can have fun with. Yeah, absolutely. Like, enjoy a couple of hours. And it's going to be just, like, us sitting here, just talking shit. Yeah, exactly. Like, it's not going to be anything that, you know, is stressing or too much. Anything like that. It's just going to be fun. Yeah, I feel like I chat with you all the time anyway. So why not put it into something creative? That's the word I'm looking for. Creative. And, like, us talking might even help someone. Wouldn't that be nice? That would be really nice. Wow, they seem really nice. Georgia doesn't seem intimidating or scary at all. I should become friends with her. And Hannah seems really smart. And could she put that with Georgia all of a sudden? Wow, that's a great way to end it. Anyway, thanks for listening to the first ever episode of I Said What I Said. So you can find us on socials. We did create an Instagram. We did. We did.
