WEBVTT - The Truth About Clint And His Past Relationship... Plus An Eliot Editing Fail

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:02.240
<v Speaker 1>Hello, and welcome back to the Mass Funny podcast with

0:00:02.360 --> 0:00:06.320
<v Speaker 1>me Joshua Fox aka I'm behind mass Funny. In tonight's

0:00:06.320 --> 0:00:08.799
<v Speaker 1>episode of Married at First Sight, we welcomed back Elliott

0:00:08.840 --> 0:00:11.200
<v Speaker 1>and Lauren into the experiment, and we also met their

0:00:11.240 --> 0:00:15.680
<v Speaker 1>new matches for Veronica and Clint, and well, some things

0:00:15.680 --> 0:00:18.119
<v Speaker 1>in Clint's story are just not adding up to me.

0:00:18.680 --> 0:00:21.320
<v Speaker 1>So I've done a very big deep dive. I've spoken

0:00:21.360 --> 0:00:23.720
<v Speaker 1>to a few people, and I'm about to present to

0:00:23.800 --> 0:00:28.520
<v Speaker 1>you the confusing backstory of Clint the Golfer. Before I

0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:31.160
<v Speaker 1>get to that, though, tonight we also heard expert John

0:00:31.240 --> 0:00:34.920
<v Speaker 1>say quite possibly the stupidest thing he's ever said on

0:00:35.000 --> 0:00:37.720
<v Speaker 1>this show as he was chatting about Elliot's return with

0:00:37.760 --> 0:00:41.000
<v Speaker 1>the other two experts listen to this, So okay.

0:00:40.800 --> 0:00:46.800
<v Speaker 2>Elliott, challenge accepted. We have found an amazing woman who's

0:00:46.920 --> 0:00:49.760
<v Speaker 2>equally as compatible as Lauren was with.

0:00:49.720 --> 0:00:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Him, equally as compatible. My what are you on? They

0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:57.040
<v Speaker 1>were not compatible in the slightest. That's why he bounced

0:00:57.120 --> 0:00:59.400
<v Speaker 1>Affter two days and that's why you now sat there

0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:03.640
<v Speaker 1>remax him with somebody else. This is literally Elliott telling

0:01:03.680 --> 0:01:05.760
<v Speaker 1>me during our whole a few weeks ago on this podcast,

0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:08.000
<v Speaker 1>how not compatible with Lauren he was.

0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:11.039
<v Speaker 2>That was really like one of the key things is

0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:16.360
<v Speaker 2>like someone family oriented, and that was where we didn't aligne.

0:01:16.440 --> 0:01:20.000
<v Speaker 2>Lauren was kind of like, oh, I would maybe have

0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:25.360
<v Speaker 2>one kid, but yeah, maybe not. I don't know if

0:01:25.400 --> 0:01:27.839
<v Speaker 2>it'll fit into my lifestyle, Like I like to travel,

0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:31.360
<v Speaker 2>I like to do all this, yep, and kind of

0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:33.520
<v Speaker 2>like made it like it would you know, it was

0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:36.600
<v Speaker 2>not even going to be on the cards. Like that

0:01:36.800 --> 0:01:39.760
<v Speaker 2>to me like an irreconcilable difference, Like that's something that

0:01:39.800 --> 0:01:41.080
<v Speaker 2>you're not going to get past.

0:01:41.319 --> 0:01:45.679
<v Speaker 1>The fucking these experts. They just chat some shit. Also,

0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:49.840
<v Speaker 1>did anyone notice to Clare frank and grabbing editing fail

0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:55.080
<v Speaker 1>and Elliott's backstory the audio of him actually just take

0:01:55.080 --> 0:01:55.680
<v Speaker 1>a listen to this.

0:01:56.200 --> 0:02:00.559
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to be alone, and so I'm open

0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:02.280
<v Speaker 2>to learning about things.

0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:05.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to be alone, and so I'm open

0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:08.560
<v Speaker 1>to learning about Like how many sentences did they stitch

0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:13.120
<v Speaker 1>together for that sentence? He absolutely did not say. Anyway,

0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:15.520
<v Speaker 1>over to Clinton the golfer now and bear with me

0:02:15.560 --> 0:02:17.520
<v Speaker 1>here while I cook on this, because I've gone full

0:02:17.600 --> 0:02:20.440
<v Speaker 1>investigative reporter today and I have a whole case to

0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:23.840
<v Speaker 1>present here and then a theory at the end. Zero

0:02:23.840 --> 0:02:27.680
<v Speaker 1>point one order in the court. Now, during Clint's wedding

0:02:27.720 --> 0:02:31.440
<v Speaker 1>reception to Lauren, when as tobias past relationships, he said this,

0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:33.520
<v Speaker 1>if you don't mind me asking, like, when was your

0:02:33.560 --> 0:02:36.800
<v Speaker 1>last partner? Lie? Okay, yeah, yeah, that was a ten

0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:40.640
<v Speaker 1>year relationship. Notice how Clint specifically said that his ten

0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:45.040
<v Speaker 1>year relationship ended around a year ago. Now, his wedding

0:02:45.080 --> 0:02:48.600
<v Speaker 1>to Lauren was filmed on August thirty f twenty twenty four,

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:52.240
<v Speaker 1>so that'd mean his breakup from his ex was approximately

0:02:52.320 --> 0:02:56.919
<v Speaker 1>August twenty twenty three. Right, Well, that's just not true.

0:02:57.440 --> 0:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>And this is where everything gets a bit confusing. So

0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:02.560
<v Speaker 1>I've built like this whole timeline which takes me too

0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:06.200
<v Speaker 1>point two order in the court. You know that big

0:03:06.240 --> 0:03:08.240
<v Speaker 1>mansion he showed off in his backstory, the one he

0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:13.519
<v Speaker 1>said this about humboly wealthy, definitely ambitious.

0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:16.440
<v Speaker 2>I've worked hard for what I've got, But as much

0:03:16.480 --> 0:03:19.280
<v Speaker 2>as I've got last car, I got two perfect fur babies.

0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:22.680
<v Speaker 1>You know, he got a big house that's it's pretty empty.

0:03:23.320 --> 0:03:26.920
<v Speaker 1>He actually moved into that pretty empty mansion in December

0:03:26.960 --> 0:03:30.919
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty three with his ex. They spent a year

0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:33.800
<v Speaker 1>designing the property together. They spent a year overseeing the

0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:36.760
<v Speaker 1>bill together, and then they moved in together on December

0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:40.480
<v Speaker 1>twenty third, twenty twenty three, two days before Christmas, and

0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:43.560
<v Speaker 1>they then hosted a big Christmas with heaps of friends there,

0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:46.320
<v Speaker 1>Like I've seen pictures of this, which is weird when

0:03:46.360 --> 0:03:49.400
<v Speaker 1>you think about how at his math's wedding in August

0:03:49.440 --> 0:03:52.120
<v Speaker 1>twenty four, he's then suggesting to people that he broke

0:03:52.200 --> 0:03:55.120
<v Speaker 1>up with his ex in August twenty three. The building

0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:57.280
<v Speaker 1>company that Clinton his X used to build that big

0:03:57.320 --> 0:04:00.400
<v Speaker 1>mansion documented the whole process from starts of finish on

0:04:00.440 --> 0:04:02.960
<v Speaker 1>their socials and all of the posts are like still there.

0:04:03.000 --> 0:04:05.280
<v Speaker 1>So these dates are mentioning of when the builders finished

0:04:05.320 --> 0:04:07.440
<v Speaker 1>and when they moved in, Like they are facts. You

0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:09.880
<v Speaker 1>can't dispute them. And you know what else, you can't

0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:12.880
<v Speaker 1>dispute the testimonial that Clint and his X then left

0:04:12.960 --> 0:04:16.040
<v Speaker 1>on the builder's website thanking them for building and I

0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:20.479
<v Speaker 1>quote our dream home. It wasn't Clint just saying his

0:04:20.600 --> 0:04:23.240
<v Speaker 1>dream home, and it wasn't just the X saying her

0:04:23.320 --> 0:04:27.160
<v Speaker 1>dream home. It was them doing a joint testimonial as

0:04:27.200 --> 0:04:30.559
<v Speaker 1>a couple talking about their dream home that they built

0:04:30.560 --> 0:04:34.839
<v Speaker 1>together and moved into together just before Christmas twenty twenty three.

0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:38.440
<v Speaker 1>So now you're probably thinking, what are you getting to here, Josh,

0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:41.839
<v Speaker 1>which takes me to point free order in the court.

0:04:42.080 --> 0:04:44.839
<v Speaker 1>You may also recall in Clint's backstory him saying this,

0:04:45.880 --> 0:04:47.000
<v Speaker 1>it's real struggle.

0:04:47.120 --> 0:04:51.840
<v Speaker 2>It has forty three did actually find someone? I've definitely

0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:54.880
<v Speaker 2>had thoughts that might never get married, I might never

0:04:54.920 --> 0:04:58.359
<v Speaker 2>find someone that I truly have that connection with.

0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:00.800
<v Speaker 1>Now listening to that, you think, well, well, fuck, this

0:05:00.880 --> 0:05:04.000
<v Speaker 1>bloke's been single what for years? Like poor guy? So

0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:06.280
<v Speaker 1>then I got even more curious trying to find out, well,

0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:08.880
<v Speaker 1>when the fuck did he actually split up with his ex?

0:05:09.120 --> 0:05:13.039
<v Speaker 1>And then the last picture I can find of them together,

0:05:13.920 --> 0:05:16.480
<v Speaker 1>which a friend tagged them in on Facebook, was posted

0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:22.039
<v Speaker 1>on May twenty seventh, two thousand and twenty four. That

0:05:22.240 --> 0:05:26.320
<v Speaker 1>was posted three months before his math's wedding, on ninety

0:05:26.360 --> 0:05:28.800
<v Speaker 1>five days to be exact. In the picture, they're just

0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:31.840
<v Speaker 1>walking those two dogs that Clint mentioned during tonight's episode,

0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:33.839
<v Speaker 1>and it was shared by a friend who did the

0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:35.960
<v Speaker 1>walk with them and then tagged them in it. But

0:05:36.200 --> 0:05:39.000
<v Speaker 1>like the confusing thing here is when he's in his backstory,

0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:41.280
<v Speaker 1>making it sound like he's been single for years and

0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:45.320
<v Speaker 1>he just can't find anyone. I'm now thinking, mate, when

0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:47.280
<v Speaker 1>did you even get the chance to try, because that's

0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:50.120
<v Speaker 1>not much turnaround between you and you ex plitting up

0:05:50.600 --> 0:05:52.800
<v Speaker 1>and you then getting married on the telly To try

0:05:52.800 --> 0:05:55.640
<v Speaker 1>and then get some clarification, I reached out to people

0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:57.640
<v Speaker 1>that know Clint, and I've reached out to people that

0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:01.600
<v Speaker 1>know he's ex and then it got even more confusing.

0:06:02.560 --> 0:06:05.480
<v Speaker 1>Clint Side say he broke up his ex in January

0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:08.839
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty four, a few weeks after they moved into

0:06:08.880 --> 0:06:11.640
<v Speaker 1>that mansion together. They say that Clint said on the

0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:14.640
<v Speaker 1>show they'd been broken up a year, as by the

0:06:14.640 --> 0:06:17.080
<v Speaker 1>time it aired on TV, that technically be true because

0:06:17.120 --> 0:06:18.839
<v Speaker 1>then it would have been a year. But then his

0:06:18.920 --> 0:06:21.880
<v Speaker 1>ex girlfriend's side reckons that no, mate, they started having

0:06:21.960 --> 0:06:25.159
<v Speaker 1>issues in January twenty twenty four, but they tried getting

0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:27.600
<v Speaker 1>through that rough patch before eventually ending it all for

0:06:27.680 --> 0:06:31.400
<v Speaker 1>good at the start of June twenty twenty four, which

0:06:31.600 --> 0:06:33.600
<v Speaker 1>on my timeline puts out a few days after that

0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:36.800
<v Speaker 1>dog walking picture was taken and tagged. Clint Side then

0:06:36.960 --> 0:06:40.240
<v Speaker 1>say the dog walking picture doesn't mean anything. As they

0:06:40.279 --> 0:06:42.960
<v Speaker 1>continued sharing the dogs after they're split, and would still

0:06:42.960 --> 0:06:46.520
<v Speaker 1>walk them together occasionally. His exes side then say no,

0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:49.040
<v Speaker 1>they were technically still together in that picture at the

0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:51.320
<v Speaker 1>end of May twenty and twenty four, and then it

0:06:51.440 --> 0:06:53.800
<v Speaker 1>just went back and forth and back and forth and

0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:56.120
<v Speaker 1>fucked may. I thought, why am I even doing this?

0:06:56.200 --> 0:07:00.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't care that much. But then someone from his

0:07:00.240 --> 0:07:03.880
<v Speaker 1>exes side sent me a message that she'd like Jackie

0:07:03.880 --> 0:07:07.320
<v Speaker 1>to her, so please enjoy this. Oh and spoiler alert.

0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:09.680
<v Speaker 1>If you're confused why Jackie's being mentioned here, you must

0:07:09.680 --> 0:07:12.720
<v Speaker 1>have missed my previous episode where I revealed how she's

0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:15.560
<v Speaker 1>now in a relationship with Clint. She's moved in with him.

0:07:15.680 --> 0:07:17.680
<v Speaker 1>He didn't last with Lauren, and there now a thing.

0:07:17.800 --> 0:07:19.880
<v Speaker 1>But I won't get into that hair. But yeah, this

0:07:20.000 --> 0:07:23.120
<v Speaker 1>is the message from the person on Clint's exit side

0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:26.240
<v Speaker 1>that she wants Jackie to hear. Jackie, how does it

0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:28.720
<v Speaker 1>feel known that the home you're in was carefully chosen

0:07:28.760 --> 0:07:31.160
<v Speaker 1>by another woman? From the silver ware you use a

0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:34.800
<v Speaker 1>dinner to the plates all picked out by someone else,

0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:37.680
<v Speaker 1>How do you feel knowing that every towel and a

0:07:37.720 --> 0:07:41.320
<v Speaker 1>piece of linen that you dry yourself with was chosen

0:07:41.640 --> 0:07:45.600
<v Speaker 1>by another woman. Jackie is the bed you sleeping comfortable

0:07:46.280 --> 0:07:49.560
<v Speaker 1>knowing that another woman once rested her head on that pillow,

0:07:49.680 --> 0:07:52.440
<v Speaker 1>From the furniture to the glasses you sit whine from

0:07:52.440 --> 0:07:55.520
<v Speaker 1>every night, even the bar where you enjoy cocktails, and

0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:58.480
<v Speaker 1>the black toilet paper in the powder room, all of this,

0:07:58.600 --> 0:08:02.800
<v Speaker 1>Jackie was chosen by another woman. I'm not gonna lie.

0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:06.520
<v Speaker 1>That was kind of iconic ball or so fucking brutal. Also,

0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:08.760
<v Speaker 1>how rich are these people firstly to have their own

0:08:08.840 --> 0:08:12.000
<v Speaker 1>barroom in the house and then the specific black toilet

0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:15.840
<v Speaker 1>paper in the powder room cant relate anyway? If you

0:08:15.920 --> 0:08:18.640
<v Speaker 1>now thinking, well, what does any of that mean? And

0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:20.320
<v Speaker 1>what the fuck was the point of this journey you've

0:08:20.320 --> 0:08:23.480
<v Speaker 1>just taken us on. Firstly, since I wasted that much

0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:25.480
<v Speaker 1>time deep diving and going through all of that, I

0:08:25.520 --> 0:08:28.120
<v Speaker 1>thought you could waste some time listening to my investigation.

0:08:28.680 --> 0:08:32.400
<v Speaker 1>And secondly, well, yeah, it doesn't technically mean anything, you know,

0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:35.439
<v Speaker 1>regardless if they split in January twenty twenty four or

0:08:35.520 --> 0:08:39.240
<v Speaker 1>June twenty twenty four are fucking I don't care. That's

0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:42.440
<v Speaker 1>not important here, because my big takeaway and my theory

0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:46.600
<v Speaker 1>after all of this is Clinton and Jackie will not last.

0:08:46.760 --> 0:08:49.680
<v Speaker 1>And I say that because in the space of twelve months,

0:08:49.880 --> 0:08:53.200
<v Speaker 1>he went from being in a ten year relationship to

0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:56.240
<v Speaker 1>then marrying a stranger on TV after that relationship ended,

0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:59.480
<v Speaker 1>to then swapping that stranger for another bride on the

0:08:59.520 --> 0:09:02.440
<v Speaker 1>show you've seed filming. So I was Lauren. So then

0:09:02.679 --> 0:09:04.880
<v Speaker 1>that bride you now with moving in with you as

0:09:04.920 --> 0:09:08.040
<v Speaker 1>soon as you started filming that TV show. And yeah,

0:09:08.120 --> 0:09:10.480
<v Speaker 1>I just reckon, at some point in the next few months,

0:09:10.480 --> 0:09:12.880
<v Speaker 1>he's going to have like an epiphany and think, Fuck,

0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:14.920
<v Speaker 1>I've got a heal I've got to be alone. I've

0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:16.920
<v Speaker 1>got to take some time for myself. And I'm speaking

0:09:16.960 --> 0:09:19.680
<v Speaker 1>from experience here when my own five year relationship ended

0:09:19.720 --> 0:09:22.400
<v Speaker 1>and fuck we were married for real, not TV married,

0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:25.040
<v Speaker 1>like it took me so long to mon that and

0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:27.480
<v Speaker 1>heal from that and just recovered that I could not

0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:31.600
<v Speaker 1>imagine bouncing into something so serious so soon, like old

0:09:31.679 --> 0:09:35.280
<v Speaker 1>make Clint as. So there we go. I think I

0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:38.280
<v Speaker 1>can't tell if this episode is funny or pointless, possibly

0:09:38.320 --> 0:09:40.920
<v Speaker 1>somewhere in the middle. Thanks for listening. Goodbye,
