It’s 20 years this month since JFK Jr, his wife Carolyn and sister-in-law Lauren Bessette died in a place crash on the Atlantic Ocean.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy Jr (JFK Jr) was famous from birth as the son of the 35th United States President. He was a political and pop culture icon.
So Lisa decides to discuss what’s happened in the world since the day of the air accident, July 16, 1999. Trump is President, the Twin Towers were destroyed and then rebuilt, Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy has become a fashion icon & then there’s the story about his cousin on the Real Housewives of New York. Also apologies for saying the twin towers attack was in 2011, I know it was 2001.
Lisa had to study the Kennedy Curse for a tv quiz show audition. She didn’t end up going to the Hard Quiz event, so she’s going to talk you through the tragedies that have givenrise to suspicious the family was cursed. You decide. Is there something sinister at work against the Kennedy family? Or bad luck? Human behaviour? Or was it the patriarch, Joseph P Kennedy? Too much money?
Hello and welcome to the ladies of Lithgow I'm Lisa VanderTait and today I'm gonna have a little chat to you about John Fitzgerald Kennedy Junior, who was the son of the American president John F Kennedy.
Now the reason for this is it's 20 years ago (can you believe it?) since he crashed his aeroplane into the northern Atlantic Ocean off Martha's Vineyard.
And with him was his wife and fashion icon Carolyn and her sister Lauren and we can just hope that they are resting in peace because it must've been a terrible terrible thing to go through.
According to the crash investigation, John actually engaged in what's called a coffin spiral.
He lost all sense of Where he should be and wasn't that experienced in flying off instruments.
So he was going on what his brain was telling him, which is confusing in certain I suppose I'm certain aspects of arm being a pilot.
I don't know a lot about that but what I do know is the man was famous from the moment he was born in 1960, just after his father had won the US election.
It was the tightest election in history there was any million votes in it no I'm sorry 100,000 votes in it.
And there were allegations that his father may have done a deal with the Chicago mob to actually get his son John over the line in that election.
Now whether that's true or not I don't think we will ever actually know.
But what they were saying is the Chicago the mob was involved and they had some influence with the unions and were able to use that to get him over the line ahead of Nixon so that's kinda history changing isn't it we may not of had watergates all when we consider the personality of Nixon perhaps he would've crashed to wards some terrible scandal I don't know which John if Kennedy may not have been assassinated would have gone if next one would have gone again we will never know that's the mystery and I'm not going to get into the conspiracy theory's I'm here to tell you what are the known facts and the reason for that is recently I was given an audition on hard quiz which is an Australian television? Oh and you had to pick an area of expertise and I was like what Is mine besides the real housewives of arm New York or vent Vanderpump rules actually and then I thought the Kennedy curse that is the one thing I know about now the Kennedy curse some people especially Kennedys say it doesn't exist but does it now the story allegedly and the family says their father was never in anti-Semite but the story is Joe Kennedy so that's the father of the President John F Kennedy's father his name is joseph Patrick Kennedy Parrant Lee he upset a rabbi by being racist on the ship and he allegedly put the curse on the family the reason why I mentioned this is the Kennedys haven't had much luck with aeroplanes which brings this to John and his accident on July 16, 1999 now I thought I'd start off with a little note to John as though I'm talking with him because we're close like that and telling what's happened since 1999 because the world has transformed incredibly partly due to this is my opinion of course the Internet but also September 11 so let me start do you John hi it's Lisa from Lithgow here I just wanted to run you by a few things that have happened since July 16, 1999 now the first thing is your friend from basketball matches he is the president yes Donald Trump is the president of the United States and he never set out to be the president According to Steve Bannan who is his close advisor he actually just wanted to get a platform to start a media network something as a marketing exercise and he won whether it was a fair win or not we don't know their allegations about yes Russian interference could you imagine your father wouldn't would've lost his s**t over that I imagine that the Russians could I suppose prefer the American democratic system like that but anyway he's president he's bit bumbling but he's made friends with North Korea can you believe it arm he likes to seem self as a Dealmaker and America's never been more divided I think since the days of race relations back in the 60s am so women have been marching on washing Button with vagina hats on their heads and fury added by Trump and they see him as a real threat her female rights and people in the south there are pockets hard pockets that really support him because he went in on a background of creating jobs I won't go any further John I'll just let that sink in the dawn is the president his number 45 your dad 35 thought that was interesting now the 20 towers were destroyed in 2011 by is Lamacq terrorists they were eventually rebuilt as a testament to human resilience and the willingness to state no we will not be coward we will not be back Wait now I'm sorry but aeroplanes were involved it's a bit awkward isn't it and then there was a war in Iraq and one in Afghanistan it's called the war on terror not a go anything go on it any more detail now reality TV sweet baby cheeses hasn't that come along I'm not sure where it was at in America the first one we saw here in Australia is called Big Brother with a lock a bunch of people from all walks of life in a house for a few months with cameras 24 seven so now we've got singing shows I got dancing shows we've got the real housewives of Beverly Hills the real housewives of New York and your cousin Anthony's wife Carol Redsville she was a New York housewife I think for three or four seasons arm So it's really become mainstream and that emphasis on pop culture has never been greater I'll tell you something you know the lawyer in the O.J. Simpson trial Rob Kardashian his daughters are bigger than their phenomenon an absolute pop culture phenomena on and they've created this fashion trend that big butts are in so that song from the early 90s I like big butts and I cannot lie women are now doing squats so they have a big butt work that out it's all the Kardashian thing going on now Chris Kardashian married arm Bruce Jenner the Olympic athlete that used to be on the cereal boxes arm they broke up and he's decided to transition his gender arm to FEMA Well so Bruce is now Caitlin Jenner and he was probably the most famous before they started this reality TV show but they've married and divorced on the show multiple times they all have children they surrogates you can't miss it really so that just getting example of how the world has changed but you're onto it with your magazine George you knew about pop culture and how it intersex with politics how did we get Trump you may ask reality television there was a show called the apprentice where you got punters and there was celebrity apprentice and they worked with Donald over several months and his favourite line was your fired if they stuffed up a task so they be told to do this and that And if I stuffed it up heat fire them in the end someone wins I think they win money and they get to hang out with Donald and help him with one of his hotel businesses or construction businesses that's how huge it was that there's a president whose I supplies meteoric claim to fame came from reality TV but you knew that you had Drew Barrymore dressed as Marilyn Munro on the front page of your magazine I suppose it was your playful way of acknowledging your father's legacy and certainly made people sit up and take notice as did your first cover with Cindy Crawford as George Washington and she had a sock down her leggings you knew it you're onto it I think probably because you were a celebrity From the day you are born Jon I just cannot understand what that's like other than being Royal now speaking of Royal you're ready and Afro-Americans divorced woman is now a British Duchess i.e. a princess so she married Prince Harry who when you died was 14 years old can you believe it wasn't a problem at all have been divorced she walked down the isle Windsor Castle St George's Chapel not a problem except for her thirsty relatives sorry I need to explain thirsty to you because it's a pop culture word desperate for fame relatives have been leaking left right and centre I'm sure you would remember this because you were chased by the media every day bro Life so was your mum now has something else your wife Caroline is a fashion icon these days just like your mum so the caravan looks very popular fashion goes on a cycle so we are now wearing leopard print I want that product redcoat she ball with you that day when you're walking the dog and I think you had a red scarf or red beanie I'll my god I want that coat but I don't think Prado does plus size that's the other thing John we're all a bit fat these days century lifestyle I don't think you would be no way now John I hope I filled you in on what's happened in the world they just like the top or maybe I did five yeah I think I did five arm but you are Iconic your family is iconic your wife was iconic and that's it from me John but if you're listening at home I don't want you to go because I did all that study on the Kennedy curse for my audition on the hard quiz show and I want it to be worth something and means something so I'm just gonna tell you guys a bit about the Kennedy curse and if you could let me know whether you think I'm full of it I believe it is died there's something going on I don't know is it money is it entitlements I'm not sure but I want to take you to August 12, 1944 so the oldest Kennedy child joseph Kennedy Junior died in Aeroplane I know it's bloody awkward isn't it an aeroplane accident he was fine one of the first drones in World War II and over towards France and I think the plane blew up that's right it blew up over Norfolk in the UK so and he was the chosen one to be president and his father and mother's eyes but then they went for John and that's how we got John F Kennedy as president and that's how we got JF Kennedy Junior God love him okay now so awkward guys May 13, 1948 Kathleen Cavendish who's JFK sister dies in a plane crash with her married lover in France Awkward it's another God can you believe it I also want to add I am remiss 1941 now I think joseph Kennedy was the family is cursed because he 1941 without his wife's knowledge he got his eldest daughter Rosemary lobotomised and it basically turned her into an invalid for the rest of her life now Rosemary was a little bit more backward than the hired shaving Kennedy family but it got to the point where they couldn't control her any more so what are we do just if we find a Doctor Who will port okay I'm just gonna give you a warning hear the spit graphic put a nice pic in her head it was tragic And she was institutionalised for the rest of her life okay so the Kennedys from 1948 onwards didn't have any more aeroplane crashes on the bottom is thank goodness that what they did have was Jackie Kennedy lost two babies 1963 was Patrick and there was one in the 50s Arabella but the biggest tragedy the one we all know about is November 22, 1963 when President John F Kennedy walls Ganntown in Amo cade through Dallas I'm not even getting into who shot him I can't I don't know enough they've released Ucation Comments about him recently I still don't know one theory who had the most to gain I think it was LBJ have you came president straight after I don't know what do you think that's what crew truck true crime by the way JFK Junior or all of CEst with true crime arm yeah so hit that was Linden Baynes Johnson he was the 36 president he was sworn in on F force one with Jackie Kennedy next to him in her blood stained suit Betty wait we all know John was shot the official version is it was that I was well guy and even though the Warren commission in the 70s Found that there may have been more than one shooter okay then in June 6, 1968 now he's a reason why I think joseph Patrick Kennedy is the Kennedy curse he put so much pressure on his sons to be in politics so his son Robert Kennedy was going down at the Ambassador hotel on live television in front of his wife and he died oh there was one more actually this list isn't comprehensive another plane crash with Ted Kennedy the youngest Kennedy Centre Ted Kennedy and he didn't die but one of his advisors died and that was in 1964 I don't know why John I suppose it's youth that mate Do you feel like nothing can I don't know you feel like you never going to die but John you and your family and the planes I just do not know what is going on there okay so the government still alive who shot Robert Kennedy interesting okay so then for a little while we have a bit of a hiatus in terms of tragedy except on the Onassis side now I'm sure some of you know that Jackie Onassis arm was Jackie Kennedy John's wife she married a Nessus his son died in an accident and then in 72 hour Nessus died but there was also a terrible car accident That Ted Kennedy was involved in and he drove off a bridge and a young lady died and the allegations was pretty obvious to me he left to send the accident didn't report it for eight or nine hours later she drowned and I think you got a two month suspended sentence but it could be there's a lot of Kennedys maybe that's why they have all this tragedy I don't know please let me know I want someone to tell me this person thing okay 1984 so Rob one of Robert Kennedy sons he saw his father going down on television he died in a G to a drug overdose on cocaine painkillers and anti-psychotic medicine then his brother Michael And he died in 97 in a skiing accident while he was playing football on skis with his family in Aspen he crashed into a tree but he also had his reputation sullied by the fair that he had with a young babysitter 99 then obviously we have JFK juniors aeroplane crash 2012 RFK juniors wife Mary Kennedy died from suicide at their New York home they are strange at the time he since remarried we also had the death due to cancer of 10 Kennedy brain cancer but he was known as the line of the Senate and he was I would Usher in significant health care reform which is now been backpedalled by Trump but that was his biggest life time achievement which is quite significant really and also his daughter and I think it was it Kara I have to have a look I died from a heart attack as well at the gym she was only 50 years old and that was only a few years ago and then we had arm one of the Lawford so that's JFK Junior's cousins he died during a hot yoga class this year so look I just don't know if it's a curse or not maybe they're all getting older and more are dying but the whole plane thing is absolutely frightening I do you think that It's an issue although were they flying at a time when aircraft travel was very dangerous in the 60s with teddy and in the 40s with the two older Kennedy children are I do not know arm do they have money and access to being out to buy their own planes be at a spin and hang out skiing so you end up into a tree is it entitlement is it recklessness I do not know but I think it's worth acknowledging JFK Junior he was pop culture from the moment he was born I think I'm like Royals can understand what he went through what it meant to be John because he absolutely did not live in his father shadow Which I think is a testament to himself everyone says what an amazing guy he was and his mother she brought up to normal children and it's not easy when you're in the spotlight like that and some of the other Kennedys family children have had tragedies of gone off the rails but Jackie Kennedy raise two really good kids in John and Caroline and I think we need to acknowledge that Caroline was the Japanese ambassador in the Obama rain and she's living a nice life now and she's selling Jackies $65 million estate at the moment through Christies Martha's Vineyard it is actually so if you've got a spare 65 million google it buy it please invite me now thank you for indulging me in what is The last episode of the ladies of Lithgow such an honour to have you listen I'm really to allocate this time it's very special thing but we're coming back with a new podcast called hello complaints department so stay tuned for that we are getting ready to launch it and the Duchess will be joining me of course because together we are a team I can't do it without my Duchess can I anyway have a great day don't forget July 1620 years since JFK past JFK Junior thank you and have a great day it's absolutely fabulous sleep the only other thing I want to say before we finish off is John always called him self John Kennedy never John John he hated it that way The nickname made by the press thank you -

Lisa VanderTait & social commentator, Jen, continue their meander down Beverly Hills 90210 lane as we prepare for the series reboot in August.
This episode also includes commentary on a terrifying encounter with some stalker Texan swingers at Jim Walsh’s group retreat. Is he in on it too?
Lisa thinks Mr Jim Walsh spends his evenings ignoring his wife. Jen agreed. He’s most certainly off entertaining clients with ladies of the night and snorting talcum powder, according to her.
No wonder Brandon has such questionable principles, says Jen.
Lisa admits to have dated two numbers men back in prehistoric age. Jen is amused that she knows someone as ridiculous as Lisa.
Plus: who is Joe E Tata? Is Tori Spelling a great comedic actress? Why is Mr Walsh always on Dylan’s case when the teen treats women better than our resident Casio keyboard player? All the questions...
Want more: here’s episode 1 of our BH90210 review.
This is our last episode of the Ladies of Lithgow but we shall be back - bigger and better. Thank you for embracing us. We shall. return. -

Are you obsessed with all things 90s? Lisa VanderTait joins Jen, social commentator, on a wander down Beverly Hills 90210 lane. Lisa reveals a huge fact about Jason Priestley, who played Brandon Walsh in the show. It involves capatin creep Harvey Weinstein.
They discuss the mess that is Brandon on the show and his interactions with his twin Brenda, his keyboard-playing Dad & news editor Andrea Zuckerman. Lisa is glad she didn’t marry know-it-all Brandon.
Jen had not seen 90210 before, so she did a deep dive. That’s commitment. And she took all the notes. Lisa also admits she had an entanglement with a Brandon-type in the 90s.
She also agreed to do a part two review of Beverly Hills 90210! This one is about Jim Walsh, s@x pest and Casio keyboard player.
The new series with the original cast airs August 7 in the USA.
RIP Luke Perry. You illuminated this show.
This is part one of two. We may do more. Let us know here: Ladies of Lithgow Please review is on iTunes!
Here is the Grim Reaper AIDS ad from 1987.no wonder Lisa has anxiety!
Plus here’s the definitive podcast guide to 90210 and Melrose Place, And Now With This.
We tried our best with the vintage clips of Brandon in a spa & justifying cheating. They are from vintage 90s footage. So they might be a tad scratchy. Sorry.
Sound by Joel North in Canada.
Show notes: Hello and welcome to the Ladies of Lithgow podcast I'm Lisa VanderTait and we have a very special addition today with our social affairs correspondent, Jen.
Jen welcome back.
It is good to be here good to be here.
Now what do you think we should talk about today Beverly Hills 90210, the vintage years?
I missed it the first go around because of working nightshift and now I realise I missed a huge part of social culture of the 90s.
Well that's what I thought. It would be really interesting to talk to you about it because you’ve never seen it before, unlike myself, who I think it was a pretty dedicated watcher, until I went to university.
And we only had one TV for four dorms well.
Plus I noticed that our Legend, yes he knows stuff about 90210.
He must've been an avid watcher, he's got very strong opinions about it.
The show is now coming back!
In America, six episodes, will air, the first one on August 7, so it's the old crew back minus Luke.
Rest in peace Luke Perry.
They even got Brenda and do you know she was like let go because of bad behaviour no one could work with her.
She was running amok offset, yeah being rude and entitled and she has that sort of snob or some other crap and thought she's a bit of someone.
Yes, so she only lasted two seasons.
But here's the surprise I've been promising on Facebook. This is the best thing ever - so one of the characters is Brandon Walsh And he is played by a very fine looking man by the name of Jason Priestly.
And guess what he did in 1996, Jen?
No idea!
He punched Harvey Weinstein in the head, so he is the best!
Jason is actually a decent bloke compare to that filthy character he plays on 90210.
Yes that's right and we gonna get into that yes. Seriously he told Jason to get out of a party, so he was waiting to leave and then Weinstein said why are you leaving.
Harvey got really aggro with him and started pushing him so he just banged him one.
So it was obvious that he knew what was doing was about it.
Sounds like everybody but nobody called him out and he just decide to take a shot.
Seriously, Jason needs some sort of medal.
In America they have the Presidents medal of freedom.
He deserves that possibly and me to award yeah.
So apparently after that security booted him out and he didn't even bring it to everyone's attention, someone else did.
He doesn't brag, no he doesn't.
He is a good vessel he's a good man quite cute, I can see the attraction.
As I said, I didn't watch it then but between him and Dylan.
I liked Dylan McKay, definitely eye candy. Yes absolutely in that like a rebel without a cause way.
The James Dean or the black Porsche, well the black Porsche, that's right I like a good car.
It’s a vintage one, isn't it?
Yet so he's pretty amazing but I was always team Brandon.
I found Brandon to be a swot he's a nerdy opinionated a******e but it would be interesting to see but I watched it in my teens or 20s like you did.
Would I have the same opinion or would I think he was absolutely wonderful and the perfect gentleman?
And at my age viewing he is a prick absolutely and we as women expectations have changed a lot since 1990.
When it first started airing right yes and and are the first bit of feminist literature I read with the beauty myth.
That’s as far as I got right.
So now we look at it and we can see his control issues don't worry guys we are gonna have fun with this as well.
And we do recognise that Jason Presley is if I'm saying is that I'm correctly is the best , so he is the actor he is not Brandon.
And we would confuse with Brandon, who is filthy in a character or personality onto the actor.
Did you know Legend hated him from the start? So insightful.
Was it because of the way he acted towards women or was it because Legend sensed competition?
No,Legend thought he was know it all, yeah yeah and a bit boring so Legend is well and I couple of decades ahead of us.
Yet if he did tell me I probably would've had an argument if he walked up to me in year 11.
And I was in year 11, so I was the same ages the alleged characters.
Now do you want to get into that for a second?
But that's pretty funny isn't it?
Yeah because I was just sitting here going so how old is he now Shannon when she started how old is Jason it's like.
When the reboot she looks like she has an aged plastic surgery no I just think that's hurt her but how much plastic surgery is Tori had in the rest of God love it I think Tories actually like quite a good comedic actress she does dates well yes but I'm not sure whether that's her or not yeah well least she's had like several reality shows that's true arm but we're gonna focus on Brandon today because he is diabolical he's evil and influence so many young male watches except for Legend of course cause he smart like him and said that's probably why we dealing with the misogynistic pricks in a workplace and neither in the general community because of watch for Brandon thought he was cool on the way to work okay Sense because in 1994 I made a romantic decision with the Brandon Walsh but I didn't know he was at Brandon until the end but that's always the way isn't it but we learnt around the steaks and we become the grapes I wish that didn't happen but then you would've been who you are now without having met with a woman to brainwash we have been used to think it was like engaging that's what I thought and then we grow the f**k up yeah so they use arguing and they pick the girl that will go for the pretend arguing and yeah I don't like him I just don't like it no well no wonder with his father the sex pest yes and he's got it all hairy back and shoulders I noticed that when you know dad Jim the account was playing basketball one on one It's real name I couldn't remember I just looked it up and mum Cindy so when they having the sex talk when I'm Brandons old girlfriend from Minneapolis came to stay in his room he got there and dads like oh no it's alright because you know Brandon was a boy yet bro the double standard but when they actually talked about it was like oh yeah it's alright dad we were safe dad just that was the end of any slap him around the shoulders and then mates but in that scene yep gym here shoulders hairy shoulders and neck and back not a good book no you wouldn't say that these days in the first step and possibly the second which for the pilot slightly different to the rest of the series brand is actually pointy a chest hair and he goes yes I've got Two and I just spa okay now I need a pet play clip for you guys and soon I'll set the scene okay there's this standoffish girl at school that Brandon decides he's going to go after save souls say sorry because you know she was her party and she was away from everybody else and you know he because she just didn't like this and her parents expected her to be popular and everyone expected her to be popular I thought she was and thought everybody loved it and she just feel so lonely he decided to say yes but he went on a date with her and she had a motorbike I was dads dads motorbike so he ends up in the spa with her now are they drinking champagne yes yes right but he's not meant to drink That's an inconsistency remember what's the drinking age 21 yeah but remember he's really antidrinking yes so there in the spa okay now I'm just gonna play the clip now you listen to that guys all my God he's a regional s**t shame up big time big time didn't you tell did your mum tell you to play hard to get where what yeah he is but it's alright for him to be half naked in the spa with her drinking champagne knowing where is possibly going to go and then and then he's like I'll come over here and she said no and he doesn't like a taste of his own medicine and then she pointed out how to get that is so disturbing because the message is the rules dating book that was in the 90s and like you have to men like to pursue and they're like Animal seeking out pray that straight out of the rules yet but it's telling us how to be again yeah and that should keep him as a 16-year-old in a spa drinking champagne any decent boy would probably want to read it yet he's like oh no no he's playing so cool and like he wanted to control her arm Mr 1994 and again that those guys do that what was in a prescription isn't it so I wonder if arm it was written that way because of you know how they write the programs were they trying to get a PG or an a.m. possibly and try and show a little bit pricey so people tune in again next Yeah and that boosted it so Siri season two was huge compare to season one or season once long enough isn't it 20 episodes looking through when I was much do I have to watch it is quite daunting actually I think I've sent about okay eight episodes and I've listen to this amazing podcast and I'm gonna give them a shout out because these people are doing God's work and basically what they are doing is reviewing every single episode and of 90210 in Melrose Place have you watch no worries no okay it's my next one the podcast look it up it's cold again with this Melrose Place in Beverly Hills 90210 now you know what they said apparently 98210 start at the whole light show review phenomena on back then really interesting We wouldn't of had it in Australia no I only had 2TV stations and I think and you wouldn't of had YouTube with the reaction channel swear people yeah make sense so that's on the first mate I think it's one of the most disturbing know you disagree I think it was very much a moralistic tail I think it was designed to try and push family values and yes aspire they don't be too rich girl should do this go and do that just the morals and the thumping of boys can do these girls can't do that and it's the seat in the way the parents react to the twins boy twin get away with that girl twin know you can't see that boy and To gym dad when he's got carrying on about her seeing Dylan because Dylan's got a hearing she has all you didn't say thing to Brendan exactly you just wanted to know if you had safe sex unit the double standards are ridiculous now can we talk about safe sex remember it was in the 90s where sex could kill you we were the bowling ball generation we were I'm also going to insert a bit of that adding here just to scare everyone arm yeah I wonder I talk to my hair dresser about this last night how did anyone have sex in the 90s with that fear that was put into us when we were young young I went to public school you didn't we put condoms on bananas what did you do it we did that I was had a fantastic PA would come into our classroom once a fortnight Whatever it was your health or whatever and he didn't care he would make sure each desk got a couple condoms and we expect to put them in our bags I'll get imagine the parents whingeing these days about that probably go nuts but as he said to us you're the top class you're smart you probably got decent parents I don't want you and your parents crying in my office if something goes wrong when we can avoid that what else do you want to know about die friends and girls about this he took all of that out of it and he didn't talk about death all the bad consequences he talked about sex and good consequences which meant you had to use protection well let's face it arm the bedside had been drummed into us by the Grim Reaper big time and now you are saying and I said to you is a really put good public health campaigns and I think it comes down to the fact Bob Hawke was prime minister and he didn't want us on the shagging strike he liked a good shag I think that has played out with Hazel and Watson at Blanche yeah neither once we know of rest in peace Hawkey you are a legend and I'm not being rude but he would not have wanted young kids like us dying from a no he was the guy you help your record EB sculling happens I have to be selling sex it yeah exactly so what hairdresser said is she thinks that campaign has bread a generation of Chermside's year I can see that you're talking to my GP she was giggling the other day and I said to you I've gotta go to the nursing home and I said what's funny about that she said I have to give a sexy chat chat And I watch the comedian is right in the nursing homes and I got to talk to them that protection and I went oh jeez Louise and I said and she said well no because they were all older and committed marriage relationships it didn't affect them they were worried about the children now the bridge the age where partners have gone and it hopping in the nursing homes they haven't thought about chlamydia and she had to go and talk to this nursing home because this reminds me of something and we will get back to Brandon I saw this show about doffing do you know what door thing is is the thing that happens in Where is it in that age group and I just couldn't believe it and I work with a couple of English girls and I turned up at work I went what is this stopping thing and very common they told me and they said yes there are problems I think because they can't get pregnant they don't need protection well this is what my GP was saying that they just missed the whole you know when the items in the bowling ball they were telling the kids you know yeah I don't have sex don't get a girl pregnant yeah you know otherwise you'll get a state forgotten that there was other things that you can catch from sex and babies do you remember a condom vending machines yeah I haven't seen them lately have you and I remember I gave my brother a condom my brothers a couple of years younger than me and my mum rang me up at work fretting and left his wallet in his back pocket so she went through it with a condom and rainier in distress oh my god I think your little I was having sex but I gave it to him how dare you mum he's 15 some of his mates are 16 my brother is now Legend because he's got a condom out of date tell me and I'll drop another one off Emmas bit horrified but understood I said it's not for him it's the whole peer pressure in the thing

lose all the better well did you know Bridget Jones got pregnant because she is an out of date arm dolphin condom really want to have them one with Mark Darcy in line with that other dating entreprenerd Right so I sent you the other day Brendan is insufferable because of the way he spoke to his teacher at the peachpit this is when he does all the GBS stuff not Brenda he cheated on that

who don't know what it is it happened to me the other day didn't chance I had someone trying to lecture me about something that I know I bit about and it's only the confidence that a white male can have it's always white men yeah arm and due to the Internet and usually Americans as well this was a Canadian North American am I recently had a fight with a guy who told me that no woman would use a short nickname that sound like a mail and I might just because it doesn't happen where you do doesn't mean the rest of the world is no support it out I know the northern lights exist I've never seen them but I'm not gonna scream and shout they don't exist because I don't see them and he was like oh no woman called herself bill think that's a good example perfect example and it's that out of confidence but Brandon so arrogant and he's always yelling at everyone he gets Snoddy I've been taking notes as I've been watching meet episodes as you do take me seriously Hours of Brandon cheating and Andrea going him Tossa w***er cheating and tries to turn victim and then straight up under this in So it's very important Dylan is hot by the way so yes that's when you sent me a message going I finally worked out the appeal of this show and it's Dylan Dylan Dylan is the one who is woke his Waikiki get said he's had a he might be the poor rich kid you know left alone in the whole what was it the hotel the hotel the Bellagio whatever arm and having other adults who shouldn't have to parenting parenting him or he just hugged my heartstrings he be a pain in the arse to try and catch a store yeah he's always on you as Brenda find out later but he sweetie the James doing a power where Brandon who looks like he's got it all together is a nasty piece of work Yep he's messy his messy he when he gets caught doing something wrong he becomes the victim and when he gets caught the drinking and the car crashing and the DY in the jail he turns it into a ball you translated my parents it's the peer pressure here that he made a bad choice and he was very much antidrinking and play that he was too cool for school and I don't need to drink you know any budget his mates will you stand around looking at the party sneering being superior and then he decides to drink it and he's taking shop drink cocktails I know mango margarita I'll On the lake and we will have boats so we are going to the homework room use the electric typewriter to take the year off and change it for an old one and that was our ID and because of no one in town all the bottle shops questioned why I was using a boat license and so will always buying like to introduce you to myself Kylie Helen anthers I was born on 30 October so your Starsign was a Scorpio possum because I used to always look at it and then ask your Starsign to make sure they did someone else's 1973 so dad bless you did thank you for loaning me your birth certificate and ways to get the neighbours in Melbourne can't when you enroll to boat and then you borrow the library card to go out and that's the kind of stuff all kids do but I am Brandon there's one particular Saying it's so disturbing when they have a party he arm like sideswipes a try like a four-wheel-drive and arm he ends up in jail overnight arm and his parents have to come back from palm springs that's a whole Nother story but I will get into that because it's hilarious maybe we need to do a part two part two will be there yet that okay so arm he is in jail overnight his parents hug him that's the first thing they do maybe a good hug but then I would have the b***h face on and I would be saying very little but it would be sharp what would you do I will going for the hug then have my hands on their shoulders and I would hope I had fingernails and I would squeeze and go wait to you get home and voice because the lower Voice b******t they know exactly Lisa and Jens parenting advice is if your child is ever in jail we hope not that's what you do that's what you do you don't give them a hug and a talk and ask them about their feelings but they eventually get home and bring it didn't really go to this party she's hanging out with Dylan she was hanging out with Dylan she was freaking about the alcohol she and when they should realise that he got up to get more she was like and Dylan and have a talk about how to get everybody out and going to Dillans gates alright I'll help you empty the place so she was being responsible responsible it was as if the roles have been reversed but if her parents eyes she's always the bad one brand is the good one but her true character came out in this episode so she's at home cleaning and scrubbing when they walk in and she just looks so scared and worried and they will change the way I like it was her because they said it was Her because she had a bit of alcohol on her breath that a couple of nights before yeah it was all her fault where is our in there accusing her of drinking and it's just that double standard you know boys can get drunk and drive their cars and ran into other cars and go to jail that's fine his boys will be boys but girls how dare you imagine what would happen to her and if she done the same thing I should be sent to boarding school yeah they go back to Minnesota are off arm and the parents were away in palm springs went they said we will get to that because I think there's a whole episode on Jim Jim Jim see when I saw Jim other than the queue until the basketball incidents and the whole hairy chest and shoulders But he looks like the 90s version of Don Draper except the women wanted yes I don't think the women other than Cindy his wife she's only one who wants him in except for when she wants photographers and that's another story arm I don't think he's that hot looking but he seems to think his keyboard it's the unlock we have to get next episode but we gonna talk about the keyboard notes so you think Dylan is absolutely hot oh yeah yeah not my type normally but he's got that vulnerability yeah but I really think it's a black Porsche and the at my young cohost the Duchess she was team in Saint Luke you get confused vessel in the character Luke Perry but she was always team Dylan but I wanted to marry Brendan Brendan Walsh when I was 16 I'm so glad I didn't because we're both sanctimonious and it would just be you are funny he thinks he's funny and he doesn't know he's in love with Andrea that is so bloody obvious the way those to church there interactions and she's really admitted it in the it's not a sleepover episode with the girls in the skeletons and that she loves him know no one runs off to branded to say Andrew is in love with you is it all those girls do you want an a******e Brandon was yeah remember when he got drunk at the party and he just laid one on her just rich didn't snob her and she was like wow

But from abusive yoga instructors, to the Spice Girl in downward dog, the Ladies of Lithgow have seen it all. There is resting bitch face at aqua aerobics & cancer advice to doctors by a Tai-Chi lady. Know your audience.
Lisa wants to put Damir Dokic, father and abuser of tennis star, Jelena, in a headlock. And don’t tell her she’s fat, she knows!

Show notes:
Yesterday I tried for the first time water tai chi and it was incredible with myself and three oldies and the teacher or the instructor was a physiotherapist now made me think of the last time I did tai chi and it was when I organised a conference for doctors am on Lake McQuarrie now organised this woman to come along at eight in the morning for tai chi and I had to go because I was the conference organiser so I turned up and the whole time she was on my case to the point where I felt she was sort of the road in my position as the conference organiser you know the one Like a dog I'm sure you had it all the time at Jeffs Jim and Lithgow but there were some female instructors who were there who is scary but I know this is been a turnaround in the last few years and people have that physio they are lovely I've had a personal trainer he put me down once in over like two years I've had to exercise physiology's not know why I couldn't concentrate which is a good point because I have a monkey brain and the monkey brain was what was happening yesterday water tai chi now and that's how I got this idea to do this podcast but the worst case in the history of leases X Sizing is the yoghurt dominatrix so when I lived in Sydney for about two years I went to this one yoga teacher and I keep going three times a week because it was the best thing ever so my brain like it was kind of like getting your brain taking out washing up shampoo conditioning it and then putting on a treatment so you had to go through the class so I went three times a week for two years to beginners but I tell you what this woman was fees if you turned up 10 minutes late secure to tell you not to come back anyone with a period and she called the men's traders and put the legs up the wall in certain poses I asked what about two years I worked up the energy to ask her what was going on what is it about the men straighteners I want to know she said it was all about energy that she was lucky I didn't work choice then because I would've asked her to back up her claim that she was frightening I took my friend Sergeant cake maker there with me once and she said Sergeant do you not watch Lisa she has no idea what she's doing but the worst bit was back in the day the Sergeant was a journalist and she rang me and she said can you get the yoga dominatrix to comment on baby spice doing yoga with her dog alright you're pretty good friend I'll do it Sergeant sewing in with this photo OFF Parrant Lee the Sergeant called before and the yoga dominatrix said oh yes Lisa she's very dedicated I want to the subject behind that so I had to go there with that g*****n photo of the dog and the Spice Girl and show it to the yoga dominatrix but luckily she wasn't mean to me this time but she's wet me on my Cycrin didn't even know I had a Cycrin put it down put it down and I've now realised I was in an abusive relationship but she's giving me something and I just kept going back and back it was that head massage like that spiritual head massage that you get at the hairdressers are you are stop going I thinking about 2003 because I moved out of the suburb but it was Along time before I can consider any kind of instructor and my friend once was bullied at aquarobics something may know her her name sounds like Mrs smooth she's a complaints officer and she just something happened to her knee there was some kind of tackling in Terrigal that involves any I don't know but just after that we all went to aquarobics because we thought it would help her this I'll b***h she was on my friends case because she couldn't move the legs properly or what the f**k my friend never went back it was horrible I still remember I think and message mood has forgotten but I remember that b***h because it just humiliate you and put you off exercise makes you look like you're in idiot when you organise a conference for doctors That are the tai chi woman she was making all these kind of claims it was embarrassing alright because I was there with doctors it was a conference for the Australian medical Association and she was saying things like this makes good for cancer come on can't you be pleasant but I think they realise that there's been a total change and I'm sure if you want someone to bully you while exercising you can do that if that's what you want that's fine I don't have a problem with that arm some people pay big money for Boot Camp am I know when I first had my personal trainer here one day Mr you can do it least you can do it it's your time it's your time I had to stop and say can you not do that that to me it's ridiculous so anyway my brothers are coach he's actually very good semiprofessional Coach snakes Peter Tate arm and he coaches in a men's New South Wales state hockey team so I'm going to ask him if that is kind of cranky people still exist in the hockey world because all I could think was Dimi dockage do you remember him with and his poor daughter tennis player her name does not come to mind at the moment he was abusive and we were giggling at him little lot to learn don't worry I'm and I know there's all those rules with parents at sport now we are at Netball 🏐💗 and Ronnie allowed to clap which is fine I don't get that involved in it really like my daughter is there to have fun I don't expect her to play for Australia because we come from very short stock and I'm kind of a hobbit I'm hoping she won't be a hobbit but I think there's a lot of competition for winter fence and the Australian netball team I'm just saying so I just enjoy being out in the sun having a coffee having a random chat but there are some parents who are the Nazi equivalent who I can't remember when I threw up there was this father who is always drilling his son on the front lawn of the house with a hockey stick that poor kid we don't need that to we so I'll see if I can get some insight from Peter Tate super coach in and see what he thinks about what these people think they achieve by being absolute nightmares seriously like it's no wonder people don't want to leave the house to exercise in the summer to judgement absolute judgement and then especially if you're overweight how can I tell you guys something right this is campaign at the more I meant about obesity causing cancer do these people think fat people such as myself do not know where fat I know I'm fat okay I know the risks what you get from shaming us I am so not amused arm anyway I think that's all of got to say I'm gonna go and eat some carbs now because those people of upset me I'll talk to you soon bye -

We’ve been covering Baby Sussex since the pregnancy announcement was made in Australia in November.
The Duchess and Lisa VanderTait have been Prince Harry fans since he was a bun in Princess Diana’s oven.
This is our tribute to Harry & Meghan from our first episode. Enjoy. It starts about one minute in. We are in raptures as Harry meets Lisa’s friend Veggie Mumma. Yes, meets! And takes her gift for the baby!
Come on bubba! We are waiting!
Now here’s a flashback.
It has been a whirlwind of a tour I have been busy & I've looking to my TV.I hoping to meet Harry very soon .
My friend met Harry yesterday.
Yes, Veggie Mama, it's all on her Instagram you can actually see her at the moment she gives him the booties and he made a joke.
Prince Harry said “they are far too small for me.”
Yes nice one - okay and what happened to the gift? Did he put a pocket to be passed on?
I'll find out for you because I'm not exactly sure at the moment.
They had to line up for 3 1/2 hours much like us in 1983 to see the Queen.
Anyway Meghan is like what Meghan, sorry, is three months pregnant.
She still had 4 inch heels on and she's amazing absolutely amazing - what a trooper.
I don't know about you but when I was that pregnant I had my head in a bucket most of the time, so yeah she's certainly got some stamina.
Anc it is so beautiful like Harry is the nicest guy and Meghan she is just just the way she looks at him.
But did you see her holding the umbrella for Harry?
I get quite emotional about that you know they made me cry then and I'm a hard face bitch.
I know but yesterday with the veggie mama meeting and I wanted to cry then.
It is it's very moving very moving.
I might have to up something in medication.
No, but I do love him and I did credit his mother with a lot of his charm.
He is quite humble - yes the connection with people yet but there is that real rapport.
And there is that real connection that they make.
Yes did he go to Iraq and Afghanistan or just Iraq?
I think after that it gives you a different perspective.
Well for sure. He is adorable like he's running around hugging everyone and being hugged.
He doesn't have that whole non-hugger thing like his father has.
okay Duchess - would you hug Prince Charles?
Yes and I know you're gonna be upset about this.
But what about Camilla?
Now this is our first episode and I really don't wanna ruin our friendship and I know that I've been getting this topic a little bit.
I'm not rational about it - do not try to be logical with me because it will trigger me anyway.
I'd even hug Camilla.
Why?
Because Royal! -

Welcome to the Ladies Of Lithgow. Straight from a wineglass in Uncle Shorty's new shed. And here they are.
Hello this is Lisa Vander Tait. And welcome to this special edition of the Ladies Of Lithgow podcast. Now firstly I'd like to talk quickly about the wicked true crime podcast, which is a lock in to the murder conviction of Keli Lane and the disappearance of her daughter baby Tegan, age two days old. It's absolutely ripping through the itunes charts. If you go to the ladies of Lithgow, there's a link there. It's brought out a whole lot of things that no one ever knew about. So you can find on radiopublic and itunes as well so it's called problem child and it's part of the wicked true crime podcast. And I'll tell you what. Things have gotten crazy there. Now speaking of things that have gotten crazy these rumors about Prince William having an affair actually have gotten a lot of traction. At first it was just one American journalist and a British journalist talking about it some legal threats, which is unusual for the royals.
And what they were upset about was the mention that Kate Middleton had fallen out with her best friend and it was unusual for them to threaten to sue over that. So what's happened is it's got legs and the story is that William was having an affair with Kate's best friend and her right. Her name is Rose Chumley. They're known as the turnip Goff’s, a Group that hangs around Norfolk in England. So that's sorry I laughed. Turn it to it's designed to nip off and it's obviously an insult. They're too posh to be posh maybe. So apparently from what I've heard and what I've researched Rose, has spoken about it and it's gotten out and half of half of London's High Society knows about it.
Now the reason why this is significant is Have you noticed Meghan's been getting so much bad publicity? And the theory is she is a foil for William. Now interestingly stories have come out this weekend about sending Harry and Megan to Africa because Megan can't get on with anyone.
It's rather strange that even mentioned Australia I was outraged. I love Harry you know that. But he cannot be Governor-General and that would be a sure path I think to a republic. And then we can have Hugh Jackman as president. What do you think. Let me know. You might have other ideas but. So that’s the story.
Now. I used to work in crisis and issues management public relations. It's a very dark art and they've got more people and people far more experienced than me working for the palace. This story just dropped over. Have a guess where Prince William is.
He's in New Zealand. He's been banished now. Does that ring a bell? Remember Prince Philip when he betrayed the queen? I think she sent him on a slow boat to Africa he might have even come to Australia. But I got upset about that because Australia is not a toy for the British aristocracy to work out their family problems do what everyone else does get drunk at Christmas and yell and fight when no one's fiefdom honestly. And if they did that as much as we love the two of them let it be the end of the monarchy in Australia which I think is on its way out anyway.
But that's not what you hear for, you are here for the gossip and really I need someone to get in on this and investigate what's going on. Maybe I should ask the host of The Wicked true crime podcast if she has a view on this or if she knows any Turnip toffs?
Come on Lisa turn it off said all right. So give you the background rose the alleged adulterous think that I married this guy called Mr the Earl of rock Savage. Isn't that cool. They had a short engagement and then the next day it was revealed they were having twins and a day later they tied the knot. So it was rather rather fast. Now some people are saying that William has a crush on her.
Come on mate you got three kids and a wife. Don't go crushing on anyone. I will send you to where could we send him if he keeps being naughty places. I do not like. What's wrong with me I can't be negative. It's not like me. I think they're not sure Sydney's pretty boring except when I hang out with my friends in that part of Sydney. So where would we put him somewhere. Very very posh Mosman. We'll send you to Mosman. You have to put up with all those Libra doodles then hopefully you learn the area of your ways because I think all cheating spouses should have some banishment as punishment. I think would work quite well. You need space and time. So Rose was apparently she's the marquee of Chumley although it's not spelt that way but apparently they were best friends. Rose was shooting her mouth off and now here's where it gets really interesting. Kate banished her from their social set which I quite like. And apparently she was far more assertive about it than she has been in a long time sorry water. I just get excited. Okay so but Harry found out about this and he absolutely lost the plot because of their childhood and because of Charles and we all know about that don't right. So it's very much reeks of Charles and Diana.
Someone in your circle someone whom you trust. Let's go deny it. That's why I think I've got legs because of how they've lied in the past to protect the monarchy they did. I remember I was around nineteen eighty one to nineteen ninety seven so him and Harry have had an absolute falling out. So the genius evil grey coated men have decided to put all this shit out about Megan in the tabloids. So obviously Harry's furious and he can't say anything because it's his brother and the monarchy and all that shit that goes with it. Another rumour is that they've got a real estate agent looking for a house in L.A. for them but I don't think this is true because the budget was 10 million. That doesn't bother you much in L.A.. I watch the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. I watch Vanderpump Rules and I know that Jax Taylor just bought a house in the valley somewhere and it was worth two million. So I don't know how you're gonna protect two royals but I would like her to become friends with Lisa Vanderpump maybe that would be quite good. She's one of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She lives at Villa Rosa. She's English and she has pit ponies as little ones and swans and 100 dogs and a dog rescue place. -

Are you over birthdays? Well it’s happy birthday to the Duchess Of Eskbank! But is she happy about turning um 35?
Introducing the Mindfulness Molls. Should we make an app? Why does Lisa sound like a fishwife? Does mindfulness work or is it a cult? We have some suggestions for mindfulness regardless.Just turn down the volume a fraction.
Plus there’s a Federal election. Why is the promise of a democracy sausage not enough to excite these ladies? Should Lisa buy a LifeSize cardboard cutout of an infamous pollie to prank people? Does anyone have a spare clown car?
Hello there welcome to the Ladies of Lithgow!
I am Lisa VanderTait and on my right I have my esteemed colleague who is back after a little break.
Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Duchess of Eskbank!
Look Lisa VanderTait thank you so much I'm so excited to be back here again - it's been such a long time.
But I tell you what, I'm rested I'm calm I'm zen and I'm feeling good, but you know what's even better? I've come back to some pretty fabulous news!
Yes we've had some news I don't know if you guys have been following the Ladies of Lithgow Facebook page or even better the Ladies of Lithgow society, we have just passed a milestone for us.
We have just made 2000 and listens - that is unbelievable. That is an amazing number.
Thank you so much and that is actual individual listens, okay.
So it's not my mum listening to it 1547 times?
No she got a bit tired, okay alright that's good.
But thank you mum I do appreciate you, so you never know and yeah.
Excuse me that's my child coming out here eating cheese and we do like to eat cheese, while recording we eat cheese we drink champagne.
We are the Ladies of Lithgow & someone had a birthday.
Happy birthday.
Thank you so much. It is some birthdays are a bit of a funny thing and it's something I think we should talk about in this episode
Yes I am but I just have really been focused on a birthday and you start thinking I need to sort myself out.
This is the last year I'm gonna be like this I need to be like that so I've been looking at a bit of mindfulness.
Oh really
No cults!
No, no that was so 2018.
But in your case 2002.
Yes that's it that coincides with leap years last year was in leap, was it?
No, I don't think it was - anyway just trying to find some planetary cosmic set of reasoning behind
I heard Pluto, which is not a planet, but it's going into retrograde, and that's not a good thing.
Well you better wait but I don't know do what we have to do to make sure we're not retrograded.
Well mindfulness is part of the answer to everything.
Well i I think it's a cult but then I think everything is a cult.
So let’s go on to my fitness, so I've been doing a little bit of it months and it's really come about because of been having challenges and struggles with sleep.
My mind will not shut up, it thinks about the future it gets worried about what's gonna happen
It replays conversations 35 years ago.
It is just yet so I have to just get it to shut the F up but my phone is apparently is a way to be able to do that.
Well in theory, yes go on.
It is bloody hard, it is so hard like I am trying to be mindful but I'm struggling to be mindful.
I know it's really difficult and I sort of think it might be like a muscle or something that you just gotta keep exercising and keep and I'm s**t at exercising are you
I'm not because I'm perfectionist believe it or not and I get a bit obsessive about things, so I've tried and I tried really hard.
Because there's a book on mindfulness I spoke about about it earlier. I just remembered - it is Happiness Trap & by Russ Harris helped through mindfulness people get through massive trauma yeah which is great.
But it hasn't worked for me because what came along with that was I had to do like 45 minute sessions just sitting on a chair. Too long time for me monkey brain, so yes yeah yeah I do.
But I tried it this morning, so you may have heard me mention I do have an offspring and she was sick home from school.
This morning and you know how kids know that level to put their voice survival mechanism.
Thanks for listening. It means a lot to us. x -
Hello to you! welcome to the Ladies of Lithgow.
I am Lisa VanderTait and I have exciting news - my cohost will be back very very soon. We are going to record on Thursday at my house and she said we might do two episodes!
I'm trying this new thing out because apparently likability is the key to everything. But really when we plunge down to the depths of my personality, I'm quite disagreeable, as some of you would know.
I have had a absolute s**t show of things thrown at me lately and I've made the decision (number 1) to reduce my circle. I think everyone should do that I haven't been that great at it because my personality type is that I want to be friends with everyone unless you're a bigot.
So I need you to vote on the Ladies Of Lithgow Facebook Page - do you want Feral Lisa or Socially-Acceptable Lisa? -

Stand by for a parenting, marketing and ecology Masterclass.
I love it when privileged arseholes are busted.
The guy who ran this American college bribes scam was forever telling parents - your Kids need a brand!
