Speaker 1: OSSes is the Chrissy Swan Show. Let's talk about Margo Robbie,
Speaker 1: Chrissy's clique. Margo Robbie is going to be, if not already,
Speaker 1: one of the legendary actors.
Speaker 2: Of our generation.
Speaker 3: Without question.
Speaker 2: She is smart, she.
Speaker 1: Is wonderful, she has extraordinary business savvy.
Speaker 2: She's just a wonderful, exceptional woman.
Speaker 4: And most importantly, she's a naussy. She's and we get
Speaker 4: to claim her.
Speaker 1: I know the new mom has sat down for a podcast.
Speaker 1: I wonder if this was after the baby was born
Speaker 1: or before.
Speaker 4: I listened to a lot of it. It's called talking
Speaker 4: Pictures of the podcast. Yeah, there was no real chat
Speaker 4: of the baby, so I feel like it was in
Speaker 4: the can before she gave birth.
Speaker 2: But also.
Speaker 1: It's very like her to not absolutely compartmentalize that and
Speaker 1: she will never.
Speaker 3: Talk about it, which we love.
Speaker 2: Well, we still don't.
Speaker 1: Know that what the baby's called, which I absolutely just cute.
Speaker 1: She has talked about her so far glittering career. The
Speaker 1: first bit that I want to talk about is something
Speaker 1: this you know two or three, the very interesting story
Speaker 1: of Babylon. Now, this was a film that came out
Speaker 1: not that long ago, within the last five.
Speaker 3: Years twenty twenty two, I want.
Speaker 1: To say, yeah, right, last three years, and I loved it.
Speaker 1: It was visually amazing. Brad Pitt was in it, Mago
Speaker 1: Robbie obviously, and Jean Smart, who has found newfound fame
Speaker 1: in Hacks.
Speaker 3: What a line, what a trio, so.
Speaker 1: Extraordinary, And the film was great, great script, great cinematography,
Speaker 1: all great, great costumes. And it absolutely flopped at the
Speaker 1: box office, which is a story that sometimes happens to
Speaker 1: films that go on to be legendary. Yeah, okay, and
Speaker 1: she still doesn't know what happened.
Speaker 5: It's a total history lesson on this critical moment in
Speaker 5: movie history. So I don't I didn't.
Speaker 3: I don't get it either.
Speaker 6: And I know I'm biased because I'm like very close
Speaker 6: to the project and so obviously I believe in it,
Speaker 6: But I still can't figure out why people really hated it.
Speaker 6: I wonder if in twenty years people are going to
Speaker 6: be like, wait, Babylon didn't do well at the time.
Speaker 3: That's crazy.
Speaker 6: You know when you hear something like Shawshank Redemption was
Speaker 6: a failure at the time, whatever it is, and you're like,
Speaker 6: how is that possible?
Speaker 1: Yeah, some of our favorite films just absolutely tanked at
Speaker 1: the box office.
Speaker 4: I didn't know that about Shawshak Yeah, because the way
Speaker 4: people our friend's Brownie in Pain, the way they crapped
Speaker 4: on about it was as if it was the best
Speaker 4: thing that's happened since slice Bread.
Speaker 1: Agreed, agreed when she did Eye Tanya, which is the
Speaker 1: it's a biopic of Tanya Harding. I think her name
Speaker 1: is the very scandalous ice skating story. Now, Margo produced
Speaker 1: that as well. It was kind of her first foray
Speaker 1: and start in it, and I feel like that really
Speaker 1: gave her enormous confidence in the Biers, and it gave
Speaker 1: her the courage to read out to Quentin Tarantino, one
Speaker 1: of the most influential directors of our time.
Speaker 2: And say, hey, I'd like to work with you.
Speaker 1: But she didn't just do it by or a manager,
Speaker 1: which is what everyone would do. She did it in
Speaker 1: a way that would speak to Quentin Tarantino.
Speaker 5: Obviously, you have an agent at this point, you call
Speaker 5: them and say can I get a meeting with Tarantino?
Speaker 5: He'd probably have done the meeting, but you I don't
Speaker 5: know if he.
Speaker 6: Like takes generals though, But I you know, I'm a
Speaker 6: huge Tarantino fans. I'd read about him. I know that
Speaker 6: he like is a bit more of an analogue kind
Speaker 6: of guy. Like everyone knows Tarantino doesn't have a cell phone,
Speaker 6: and everyone knows that, Like he handwrites the front page
Speaker 6: of his script. So I thought it needs to be
Speaker 6: a handwritten letter. And I'm a very analogue person too.
Speaker 3: Like I I write.
Speaker 5: So this wasn't even taped. You wrote it?
Speaker 6: No, I hand wrote it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, smart.
Speaker 3: She's a good egg.
Speaker 2: She's a good egg.
Speaker 1: But she's like, Okay, how can I make myself different?
Speaker 1: How can I make myself stand out?
Speaker 4: Also, I know the voice of a gal after a
Speaker 4: night party. She's had a big night just before that. Really, absolutely, yeah,
Speaker 4: there's this little slight hadskin vibe in it.
Speaker 3: Really I love it.
Speaker 1: Well, maybe she's just crying in the corner because her
Speaker 1: newborn won't be quiet.
Speaker 3: Who knows all that.
Speaker 1: Let's move on to more Ariana grande content. I love
Speaker 1: this song was lucid every time I hear it. Of course,
Speaker 1: it's popular from Wicked, which is you know, breaking it
Speaker 1: in at the box office, and rightly so, her music
Speaker 1: team put to her, Hey, why don't we mix things
Speaker 1: up a bit.
Speaker 2: Why don't we do like a rap version of this?
Speaker 1: And Ariana Grande said no, And the exact line is
Speaker 1: I want to be Glinda, not Ariana Grande playing Linda.
Speaker 3: I get that good on it too.
Speaker 4: My favorite part of what she said that at the
Speaker 4: start of that sentence was absolutely not absolutely not.
Speaker 1: But I just want to check in, how's everyone with
Speaker 1: their holding space for the lyrics of define gravity going?
Speaker 2: How this week people.
Speaker 6: Are taking the lyrics of defying gravity and really holding
Speaker 6: space with that?
Speaker 2: Yeah, and feeling.
Speaker 6: Power in that.
Speaker 4: I didn't know that the what was happening.
Speaker 6: I've seen it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's really powerful. Yeah, that's why I wanted. I
Speaker 4: don't know that was happening.
Speaker 2: Can you just put your finger over here and I'm
Speaker 2: just going to.
Speaker 3: Hold you for the whole time.
Speaker 2: The Chrissy Swan Show, The Chrissy Swan Show, It's almost Friday.
Speaker 2: Chrissy's cliquees Kanye West.
Speaker 1: You know, he's a confusing guy for me because I
Speaker 1: feel like he made his ex wife's life a living hell.
Speaker 1: So that's zero points from me. But man's a genius.
Speaker 3: He's a genius.
Speaker 4: And I think with that Swanny much like several other
Speaker 4: artists do we need to like? Can we see? Can
Speaker 4: we separate the allegations and the alleged things that have
Speaker 4: happened with their art? Can?
Speaker 2: I tell you?
Speaker 1: It's a really great conversation to have the next time
Speaker 1: you're at one of your fancy dinner Oystery Gin and
Speaker 1: Tonic dinners. Can because there's really no answer, but it's
Speaker 1: really interesting to see where people stand on Can you
Speaker 1: separate the art from the from the human It's.
Speaker 3: More interesting, I can can you?
Speaker 2: Sometimes?
Speaker 3: Right? It depends well, and it.
Speaker 1: Does depend for you. I mean we're having this conversation now,
Speaker 1: but I'm fairly sure given how much deep diving you've
Speaker 1: done on the P. Diddy case, you would you you
Speaker 1: don't enjoy P. Diddy music as much as you did,
Speaker 1: and it feels weird.
Speaker 3: See maybe maybe it makes you appreciate it. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I can still listen to it, though I still think
Speaker 4: when I'm listening he's a bad dude. Dude, but this
Speaker 4: is a great song. The reason being, I don't think
Speaker 4: me stopping listening to his music is going to change
Speaker 4: any outcomes or history.
Speaker 1: I agree it doesn't, but it affects my enjoyment of
Speaker 1: that art okay, And the whole reason I listened to
Speaker 1: music is because I.
Speaker 3: You enjoy it, feel good?
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that stops it dead.
Speaker 3: Get what you say?
Speaker 1: Anyway, Kanye has got a new song and it features
Speaker 1: his two daughters, Chicago and Northwest in it visually and audio.
Speaker 1: So they sing on it and they're in the video
Speaker 1: and I cannot recommend it enough.
Speaker 4: The video has just come out, and it's the way
Speaker 4: I would describe it, Swanny. It's like Mario Kart meets
Speaker 4: Palm Springs me mad Max meets mad Max meets the Future.
Speaker 1: It is extra meets Gremlins after Midnight. It's extraordinary.
Speaker 3: Alright, let's listen to north Hawk.
Speaker 4: Must you ass you are?
Speaker 2: And they love Tokyo don't dashing?
Speaker 3: Dashing?
Speaker 2: It is as well.
Speaker 1: He did make Kim's life a living help, but gosh,
Speaker 1: he's made those kids' lives interesting.
Speaker 3: And then Chicago one.
Speaker 7: I like to have fun.
Speaker 4: I like to go to the beach time, Shine Away.
Speaker 2: Shine, that's her nickname, Shy.
Speaker 1: I feel like it's very wrong, but I'm obsessed with
Speaker 1: those girls, those kids, That's not wrong.
Speaker 2: They're so interesting. They're the most interesting children.
Speaker 4: Apart from my own I'm with your Swanie because you
Speaker 4: can tell Shi and North are very different. Yes, North's hectic,
Speaker 4: like a data in a bit crazy, Yeah, in a
Speaker 4: great way. But then Shi seems very much like Kim
Speaker 4: and gentle agree and make CUTSI.
Speaker 1: Try and google that video because it is absolutely mind blowing.
Speaker 1: You would have never seen anything like it Cold Bomb.
Speaker 1: Now let's move on to Robbie Williams. There is a
Speaker 1: biopic coming out about his extraordinary life. It's easy to
Speaker 1: forget because he's quite over exposed. You know that he
Speaker 1: has had the most extraordinary life up Down's fame, alcoholism,
Speaker 1: drug addiction, all of it, and he's really open about it.
Speaker 1: And this film is going to cover off everything. There
Speaker 1: is an interesting element in the film in that the
Speaker 1: old Robbie Williams through the years is not played by
Speaker 1: a computer generated version that you would recognize. It isn't
Speaker 1: played by an actor that might bear a passing resemblance
Speaker 1: to a young Robbi Williams. It's actually played by a
Speaker 1: CGI monkey. And it makes perfect sense to me. And
Speaker 1: this is Robbie talking about it last night on the
Speaker 1: red carpet at the premiere of the movie.
Speaker 7: Because it's unusual, right, that's the thing. I'm on the spectrum,
Speaker 7: so things are unusual to me. On that unusual, I
Speaker 7: don't pick up those sort of cues. I don't know
Speaker 7: where I am on the spectrum, by the way, but
Speaker 7: I just know I am. It's a monkey.
Speaker 2: Over it, it's a monkey, Get over it.
Speaker 3: Over it.
Speaker 1: The reason I love this is because I'm so easily distracted,
Speaker 1: and if I can't see something, it doesn't exist. So
Speaker 1: when I'm watching the movie, all I'm going to be
Speaker 1: able to see is an actor that isn't Robbie Williams. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: if I'm looking at a monkey that sounds like Robbie
Speaker 1: and looks like Robbie, I will believe that from the
Speaker 1: get go.
Speaker 3: To the end, and you'd stay focused on I'll.
Speaker 1: Accept that in the very first moment that that's Robbie,
Speaker 1: and then I'll never think about it again.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I get what you say. I'm excited to see.
Speaker 2: Ida to see it.
Speaker 3: Our pal Lauren Phillips saw and said it was unbelievable.
Speaker 1: Really, we were at the filming of the Other to
Speaker 1: take that scenes. At the last Robby Williams com.
Speaker 4: Boxing believe regulates him and joller up next to have
Speaker 4: a beautiful night se you guys.
