Amy Nearly Hit an E-Bike Rider... and Chris Thinks That's a Good Thing

Amy Gerard shares a frightening moment that left both her and her kids shaken after an e-bike rider cut in front of her car and collided with the vehicle at a busy intersection. What could have been a serious accident quickly turns into a broader discussion about road safety, e-bikes and the lessons kids need to learn before it's too late. On this episode of the Chris & Amy Podcast, the team react to an unbelievable story out of America involving a man who smuggled a crockpot of chilli into a packed IMAX cinema and started selling bowls to moviegoers during the screening. They also discuss Australia's strong Commonwealth Games start and the growing excitement around some of the biggest movie releases of the year. Chris and Amy dive into the changing attitudes towards childhood sleepovers, debating how much trust parents need before letting their children stay at someone else's house. The conversation leads into a wider discussion about childhood independence, parenting fears and whether kids have become less street smart than previous generations. Plus, Chris explains the analogy he uses to teach his son about gambling, Amy prepares for her long-awaited Italian getaway, and the pair share their latest Nailed It or Failed It moments featuring cockatoos, bush turkeys and an impressive DIY bunk bed project. ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 – Australia's Commonwealth Games Success & Lachlan Kennedy's Sprint Record 02:04 – The Man Selling Chilli During An IMAX Movie 05:52 – Amy's Frightening E-Bike Near Miss 11:18 – Are Sleepovers Becoming A Thing Of The Past? 15:05 – How Do You Explain Gambling To Kids? 17:55 – Nailed It or Failed It: Bin Raiders, Italy & A Dad Win 🔗 Hosts Amy Gerard🌐 www.amygerard.com.au📸 @amy.gerard Chris Page📸 @chris_page83 Executive Producer – Mathew Eggleston📧 [email protected]📸 @eggoau on InstagramSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
