It's nice a midweek special. 19 00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, is a big week hangover? 20 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 2: How are you? 21 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 3: I'm going well, I'm still on my pilate's beat.

I feel tired, but I feel good. 25 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, So what's happening in your world this week? 26 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 2: So my pick of the week I saw Wicked last night. 27 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:21,039 Speaker 2: Have you seen it? 28 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: No? 29 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 3: Okay, Well, the pick of the week is it took 30 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 3: twelve years to make the Wicked film, and all people 31 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 3: can talk about is Ariana Grande's appearance. 32 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: I can't believe it took twelve I know, not. 33 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,280 Speaker 3: Actually twelve years of filming, but in terms of like 34 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 3: they've been talking about it for such a long time 35 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,320 Speaker 3: and like you know, big Hollywood blockbusters, it's left a 36 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 3: huge impression on those who have watched it. But unfortunately, 37 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 3: discussions around the incredible performances, the great leaps in representation, 38 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 3: et cetera, have been eclipsed by ongoing chat around Ariana 39 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 3: Grande's appearance. 40 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: So tiresome. 41 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 2: Have you seen this online? 42 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: I have? 43 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 2: It is just relentless. 44 00:01:58,640 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: Yes. 45 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 3: So since we get promo first started, which was so 46 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 3: long ago. Now it was a couple of years ago, now, haven't. 47 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: I did read something that they've been on the promo 48 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: tour for. 49 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,079 Speaker 2: For like ten thousand years. It feels like absolutely love. 50 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 3: But since it was even first announced, there was a 51 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 3: lot of chat about whether Ariana was right for the role. 52 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 3: People said she was too much of a pop star, 53 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 3: she didn't have the right hair, she was too tanned, 54 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 3: and that there were other more deserving musical theater stars 55 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 3: who should have got the role. Fast forward to earlier 56 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 3: this year, when Imagery came out of Rianda with blonde 57 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 3: hair without her fake tan, people said she looked sick 58 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 3: and underweight, despite Ariana herself saying that she was the 59 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 3: happiest and the healthiest that she's ever been. So it's 60 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 3: kind of like she can't win here, really, absolutely not. 61 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 3: And I think it's worth noting that Ariana auditioned reportedly 62 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 3: five times to that role. One such audition went for 63 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 3: more than three hours, and so she certainly earned her 64 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,680 Speaker 3: position there. And she's got an incredible voice, like really, 65 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 3: no one can an exquisite voice. Yeah, no one can 66 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 3: argue with that. 67 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,480 Speaker 1: I just have to interject there. I am deep. My 68 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: six years just loves Arina Christmas Carols. 69 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 2: Oh that's sweet. 70 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 1: I just have her on repeat in my head at 71 00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 1: the moment. 72 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 2: She is incredible. 73 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,639 Speaker 3: Even when she's saying it's you and Gallie, she nails 74 00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 3: it every time. And then as for her appearance, like 75 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 3: Ariana Grande has spent two years vigorously rehearsing and you know, 76 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 3: filming all this choreography on set and embarking on this 77 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 3: career defining role, doing the press tour for like eighteen months, 78 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 3: as you said, or however long. And it's safe to 79 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 3: say there's been a lot going on for her. 80 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 2: You know, she got divorced as well. 81 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 3: There's all sorts of things happening, and now that the 82 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 3: film is out, whether you're a die hard theater person 83 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 3: or not, there's no doubt that she did a great job. 84 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 3: Yet people just still can't stop talking about what she 85 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 3: looks like, specifically how thin she is, the eyelashes she 86 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 3: wears in the film, and so on. And I think 87 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 3: that the piece does a really great job at examining 88 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 3: just how unfair and tiresome this commentary is, especially given 89 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 3: it just wouldn't be happening if she were a man. 90 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: No, the patriarchy again exactly. 91 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 3: Jonathan Bailey, for example, who's also fantastic in this. He 92 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 3: you know, he's got a bit of a spray tond 93 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 3: in the film, his hair is a bit lighter. But 94 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:13,279 Speaker 3: it's not been a peep about that, No, not a peep. Yeah, 95 00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 3: So it's worth a read, I think, especially if you've 96 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 3: been buying into those discussions about wicked of late. 97 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks for showing I like that one. I want 98 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 1: to well talk to you about the next big superfood. Okay, 99 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: hit me with it. I should be eating it right now, 100 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 1: but to make myself feel a little bit better rather 101 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: than viam and water I have sitting next to me 102 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: on the desk, Yum, sea moss. It seems everyone but 103 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: me is into eating sea moss for better health. 104 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:40,280 Speaker 2: Interesting. 105 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 3: I'm certainly not eating it, but I have seen it 106 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 3: on smoothie menus. 107 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,239 Speaker 1: Well, it is all over TikTok. 108 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 2: A band word in this room. 109 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: If you don't know what sea moss is. It's a 110 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: kind of seaweed, particularly red algae, and it's usually bought 111 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 1: in a jill form, so you can add it to 112 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: smoothies or recipes, or you can actually eat it as 113 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: is yuck. Wellness influencers and others acclaim seamoss products have 114 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: a plethora of health benefits, things like supporting brain immune function, 115 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: protecting against viruses and other microbes, and helping promote skin 116 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 1: health and most importantly, enhances mood and focus. 117 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 2: Perfect. 118 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: I mean, it does sound like the perfect superfood, doesn't 119 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: It does? 120 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 2: But don't they all. 121 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, But like other products, of course, we don't know 122 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: how many of these nutrients are lost during the preparation 123 00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 1: of the product, and those that remain could be present 124 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 1: in relatively low qualities. First question mark, Okay, second question mark. 125 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: Recent studies have reviewed the biological properties of the main 126 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: sea moss species and suggest these species may have anti inflammatory, antioxidant, 127 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:58,280 Speaker 1: anti cancer, anti diabetic, and probodic properties. 128 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 3: Wow, anti cancer is claims, Yeah, but the may may 129 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:04,560 Speaker 3: how are capitals. 130 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: The vast majority of this research comes from studies doning 131 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,919 Speaker 1: test tubes or using cell and animal models, so we 132 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: should not assume that these health benefits that all these 133 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: TikTokers et cetera, et cetera claiming would be the same 134 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: in humans. So at the moment, there is actually very 135 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: little evidence people who consume seamoss will experience any of 136 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: the health benefits I just outlined above. So I'd say 137 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 1: save your money. Sea moss is actually quite expensive. A 138 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: three hundred and seventy mil jar costs around twenty five bucks. Yeah, 139 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,480 Speaker 1: and it lasts about seven to ten days. I don't know. 140 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,159 Speaker 1: I think you better off buying a piece of fruit. 141 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 2: Seven to ten days that is not long for No. 142 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 2: Five to thirty. 143 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: Dollars, So buy an extra piece of fruit, throw that 144 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:46,679 Speaker 1: in smoothie instead. 145 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 2: Sounds good to me. 146 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 1: No seama super pain. No anyway, just quickly before we go, 147 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 1: give us a quick rundown of the most clicked story 148 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: of the week. 149 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 3: Top clicker this week was the world's healthiest meat deemed 150 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:03,159 Speaker 3: better for you than some fruit and vegetables. So we've 151 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 3: been told to steer clear of fatty meats for years 152 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,799 Speaker 3: to meet our daily nutrition goals. But according to research, 153 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 3: you might want to think about swapping your pork crackling 154 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 3: for sweet potatoes during Christmas lunch this year because a 155 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 3: study published in the Plus one Journal ranked one hundred 156 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,679 Speaker 3: raw foods based on their nutritional value. Now, this doesn't 157 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 3: mean you need to eat them raw, it's just looking 158 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 3: at them in their raw state. And interestingly, pork fat 159 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:31,080 Speaker 3: was one of the healthiest foods, ranking eighth and beating 160 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 3: many fruit and vegetables. 161 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 2: On the list. 162 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:33,680 Speaker 1: This kind of blows my mind. 163 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 2: It blows my mind too. 164 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 3: And sweet potatoes would you believe it ranked a hundreds 165 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 3: right down the bottom of the list. 166 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 1: Do you like eating pork fat? 167 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 3: No? I was raised by vegetarians I'm not a huge 168 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 3: meat eater.
