WEBVTT - Just Some Wholesome Women's News

0:00:09.039 --> 0:00:11.960
<v Speaker 1>If you hear a little taps behind me, it's just

0:00:12.400 --> 0:00:16.919
<v Speaker 1>it's just it's just an antler on wooden floorboards. It's

0:00:17.000 --> 0:00:28.800
<v Speaker 1>just a dog and his antler. No putting it up. Okay,

0:00:29.120 --> 0:00:32.519
<v Speaker 1>here we go. I know. I'm sorry about it. Go

0:00:32.560 --> 0:00:35.760
<v Speaker 1>and have a sleep instead. Well you've just been out.

0:00:37.040 --> 0:00:39.960
<v Speaker 1>I've taken you out. You've played with a massive poodle.

0:00:42.240 --> 0:00:48.960
<v Speaker 1>Try to hump you all morning. Aren't you exhausted? Exhausted

0:00:49.200 --> 0:00:54.480
<v Speaker 1>from the humps. Nope, take some more. Anyway, Let's talk

0:00:54.480 --> 0:00:57.480
<v Speaker 1>about women. How good are women? I'm a woman, you're

0:00:57.520 --> 0:01:02.600
<v Speaker 1>a woman. Rachel's a woman. There's plenty of women, trans women,

0:01:03.240 --> 0:01:06.639
<v Speaker 1>men coming over? Thank you? Who wouldn't want to be one?

0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:09.200
<v Speaker 1>If you aren't a woman, you may know a woman.

0:01:10.280 --> 0:01:12.679
<v Speaker 1>Your grandmother was a woman, is a woman. Your great

0:01:12.680 --> 0:01:16.399
<v Speaker 1>grandmother was a woman. You carry for the gene making women.

0:01:18.319 --> 0:01:22.680
<v Speaker 1>You might love a woman who doesn't love a woman.

0:01:23.120 --> 0:01:28.320
<v Speaker 1>Do you know Mexico's just elected its first female presidante. Yeah,

0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:34.679
<v Speaker 1>that's Spanish for president. Just fyi. Her name's Claudia Shinebaum.

0:01:35.400 --> 0:01:39.360
<v Speaker 1>So I'm assuming she's Jewish because that's a very josh

0:01:39.600 --> 0:01:47.760
<v Speaker 1>last name. Claudia shine Baum. Oh that's my Jewish New Yorker.

0:01:47.840 --> 0:01:51.840
<v Speaker 1>It's my favorite type of accent. She's the former mayor

0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:55.200
<v Speaker 1>of Mexico City and she's become Mexico's first female president.

0:01:55.480 --> 0:01:59.480
<v Speaker 1>She actually won in a landslide victory and it was

0:01:59.520 --> 0:02:05.680
<v Speaker 1>the first that two women have led the polls in Mexico. Look,

0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:07.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't know much about her. Is she right wing?

0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:11.600
<v Speaker 1>She might be, she might be Margaret Thatcher. I could

0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:14.360
<v Speaker 1>look more into it, but I don't think so. Because

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:19.240
<v Speaker 1>she began her career as an environmental engineer and climate scientist.

0:02:19.480 --> 0:02:23.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't think Thatcher was into that. She was into

0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:30.320
<v Speaker 1>really really telling off miners and people who striked. In

0:02:30.360 --> 0:02:33.880
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and seven, Claudia not Thatcher was part of

0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:37.440
<v Speaker 1>a UN climate change research team that won a Nobel Prize. Well,

0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:41.120
<v Speaker 1>she sounds great, and you know we love the UN.

0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:46.000
<v Speaker 1>Also another woman this week, Lydia Williams. Do you know Lydia?

0:02:46.720 --> 0:02:52.240
<v Speaker 1>She plays for the Matildas. Everyone knows the Tillies highest

0:02:53.520 --> 0:03:02.519
<v Speaker 1>watched game in the country ever, eleven point five million

0:03:02.639 --> 0:03:08.680
<v Speaker 1>people watched. Like it still just gives me chills. But

0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:11.640
<v Speaker 1>no one watches female sport. No one watches women's sports.

0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:14.360
<v Speaker 1>Just a boring you can't get your tea counsel. The tickets.

0:03:14.560 --> 0:03:19.399
<v Speaker 1>Oh did you see the State of Origin? The women's

0:03:19.520 --> 0:03:25.320
<v Speaker 1>State of Origin game two? Completely sold out, completely sold out.

0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:31.040
<v Speaker 1>Oh but no one goes to women's sport. Oh don't they?

0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:37.240
<v Speaker 1>They do play it, show it, We'll watch it. I won't.

0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:40.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't. Well I did. I watched the Matildas and

0:03:40.600 --> 0:03:44.600
<v Speaker 1>I cried. Maybe that's all I've ever needed was bloody

0:03:44.600 --> 0:03:47.040
<v Speaker 1>women playing sport. I have to say I watched a

0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:49.120
<v Speaker 1>bit of the State of Origin, you know, like the

0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:54.600
<v Speaker 1>last game highlights, and I just love watching women play

0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:59.560
<v Speaker 1>this brutal sport with ponytails. Some of them had ribbons

0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:07.960
<v Speaker 1>in there. How good's that? Lydia Lydia Williams, she played

0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:14.880
<v Speaker 1>her final professional match on Australian soil after earlier this

0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:20.320
<v Speaker 1>year announcing her retirement. Oh that's rit sad for those

0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:24.640
<v Speaker 1>who love Lydia Williams and the Matildas. Before Australia's friendly

0:04:24.640 --> 0:04:27.720
<v Speaker 1>match with China, pr Lydia was presented with a booker,

0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:33.840
<v Speaker 1>a cloak traditionally worn by Noonga people's She represented it

0:04:34.440 --> 0:04:39.240
<v Speaker 1>by tennis great and Wiradgery woman Evon Gulagong. Oh what

0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:45.360
<v Speaker 1>a legend. Williams is the longest serving Matilda, having represented

0:04:45.400 --> 0:04:50.360
<v Speaker 1>Australia in five World Cups, six Asian Cups and two

0:04:50.400 --> 0:04:57.320
<v Speaker 1>Olympic Games over nineteen years. Damn, I can start making

0:04:57.360 --> 0:05:03.680
<v Speaker 1>statues of these people. Let's talk about another woman. Do

0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:07.040
<v Speaker 1>you remember in early two thousands, go back to two

0:05:07.040 --> 0:05:09.520
<v Speaker 1>thousand and three, so this is twenty one years ago.

0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:14.560
<v Speaker 1>I remember it clear as day, Sophie de Lezzio. She

0:05:14.680 --> 0:05:17.480
<v Speaker 1>was at the daycare that I used to I used

0:05:17.480 --> 0:05:19.800
<v Speaker 1>to work at that daycare. I was the casual there

0:05:20.360 --> 0:05:24.000
<v Speaker 1>and I wasn't there that day, but that's what I

0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:26.200
<v Speaker 1>was doing for a job at the time, working in

0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:28.640
<v Speaker 1>daycares on the Northern Beaches, and this one was at

0:05:28.640 --> 0:05:36.000
<v Speaker 1>manly Well fair Light and oh gosh, so I would

0:05:36.040 --> 0:05:40.120
<v Speaker 1>have met her as a child anyway. It was just

0:05:40.200 --> 0:05:42.440
<v Speaker 1>it was such a story that rocked everyone. A car

0:05:42.560 --> 0:05:46.599
<v Speaker 1>went through the front fence of the daycare into the

0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:52.640
<v Speaker 1>daycare and over the children sleeping, and she was burnt

0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:59.000
<v Speaker 1>pretty badly. I remember it obviously because I used to

0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:03.000
<v Speaker 1>work there that particular daycare, but we as a community

0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:09.320
<v Speaker 1>remembered it. But the country and then you know, she

0:06:09.440 --> 0:06:15.000
<v Speaker 1>defied odds to survive, like she was just so incredibly

0:06:15.600 --> 0:06:18.320
<v Speaker 1>badly burnt, and she went through so many surgeries and

0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 1>everyone rallied for this child is baby, and two thousand

0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:28.240
<v Speaker 1>and six, three years later, she was hit by a

0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:31.520
<v Speaker 1>car crossing the road. I mean, who has that kind

0:06:31.520 --> 0:06:36.400
<v Speaker 1>of luck? Apparently someone with a load of strength, because

0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:42.880
<v Speaker 1>this woman who has been through so much and overcome

0:06:43.200 --> 0:06:45.719
<v Speaker 1>so much adversity. You know, they say, and if you

0:06:45.800 --> 0:06:48.520
<v Speaker 1>believe in God, you would believe this, that that God

0:06:48.560 --> 0:06:52.200
<v Speaker 1>only gives these kind of challenges to the strong, Like

0:06:52.320 --> 0:06:58.120
<v Speaker 1>He's really chosen a good one. An angel a saint

0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:05.599
<v Speaker 1>and canonized her. She's a miracle. She's twenty two now

0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:11.800
<v Speaker 1>and she's just announced that she's having a baby. She's

0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:16.400
<v Speaker 1>the most beautiful partner and child, best friend Joseph, and

0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:19.440
<v Speaker 1>you have to go and look on her socials and

0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:23.080
<v Speaker 1>see the announcement video of her announcing it to her

0:07:23.360 --> 0:07:26.760
<v Speaker 1>family and friends, like it just will make you weep

0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:30.360
<v Speaker 1>with joy. And she's on TikTok and I love following

0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:32.840
<v Speaker 1>her on TikTok because she's just so open and honest

0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:36.080
<v Speaker 1>and vulnerable and she just talks to people. She talks

0:07:36.120 --> 0:07:42.200
<v Speaker 1>about getting her extensions redone her extension day and she

0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:46.720
<v Speaker 1>hardly has any hair, but she absolutely loves her little

0:07:46.760 --> 0:07:50.160
<v Speaker 1>wafts of hair and she gets little extensions put on them,

0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:53.280
<v Speaker 1>and know all these and I've got to say, they're,

0:07:54.520 --> 0:07:57.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, do gooding, like they're trying to help a

0:07:57.240 --> 0:08:01.560
<v Speaker 1>lot of people give her advice of WEFs and you know,

0:08:01.640 --> 0:08:04.720
<v Speaker 1>all of this new kind of hair that we have

0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:08.200
<v Speaker 1>now you know that you can wear on your head,

0:08:09.400 --> 0:08:12.440
<v Speaker 1>and she's so sweet and patient, and she replies in

0:08:13.040 --> 0:08:17.760
<v Speaker 1>her own way in her videos to them in such

0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:20.600
<v Speaker 1>a kind way to say thank you, you know, but

0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:23.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to put anything on my head. I

0:08:23.560 --> 0:08:30.840
<v Speaker 1>for years was covered head to toe with really you know,

0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:34.160
<v Speaker 1>thick bandages and you know whatever they call that, the

0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:36.720
<v Speaker 1>stretchy stuff, and you know, all of the things to

0:08:36.800 --> 0:08:39.960
<v Speaker 1>keep her skin in place. And the last thing she

0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:42.680
<v Speaker 1>wants is to put anything more on her head that

0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:46.080
<v Speaker 1>she doesn't. She's so happy to have these extensions, and

0:08:46.120 --> 0:08:51.040
<v Speaker 1>it just feels my heart that she's so incredibly proud

0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:55.520
<v Speaker 1>of how she looks, because she's stunningly beautiful and her

0:08:55.600 --> 0:09:00.679
<v Speaker 1>hair is perfect and her head is perfect. She talks

0:09:00.679 --> 0:09:04.120
<v Speaker 1>about her prosthetics and she's getting new prosthetics and she's

0:09:04.280 --> 0:09:10.040
<v Speaker 1>just she's perfect. So let her be your inspiration for

0:09:11.400 --> 0:09:16.640
<v Speaker 1>accepting yourself, because she certainly makes me feel better about myself.

0:09:16.840 --> 0:09:20.000
<v Speaker 1>And you know, and there's certainly nothing wrong with that.

0:09:20.360 --> 0:09:23.440
<v Speaker 1>When someone like her, who has been through what she's

0:09:23.520 --> 0:09:29.199
<v Speaker 1>been through, should and could be the biggest winger in

0:09:29.240 --> 0:09:34.000
<v Speaker 1>the world and have every right to say life hasn't

0:09:34.000 --> 0:09:38.560
<v Speaker 1>been great for me. She doesn't go there. She reminds

0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:43.600
<v Speaker 1>me of Terrea Pitt. So Terrea is the same. Just

0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:47.560
<v Speaker 1>refuses to let it get them down. I mean, I'm

0:09:47.600 --> 0:09:50.880
<v Speaker 1>sure it gets them down, refuses to let it define

0:09:51.000 --> 0:09:58.360
<v Speaker 1>them in a negative way. How God, the privilege we

0:09:58.480 --> 0:10:01.720
<v Speaker 1>have not being that person to say, I'll go and

0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:04.320
<v Speaker 1>take a walk through that, you know, the burn's victim,

0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:08.839
<v Speaker 1>the unit. No, I'm not saying that. I'm saying there's

0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:14.480
<v Speaker 1>there's choices, we still we still can complain, We can

0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:18.840
<v Speaker 1>still complain, But let them be that beautiful shining light

0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:25.000
<v Speaker 1>that there's positive in it too. Follower, do you want

0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:29.840
<v Speaker 1>a useful fact? Why not? Do you know? My name's Evie?

0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:34.199
<v Speaker 1>Do you know what song gets sung to me? A lot?

0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:37.480
<v Speaker 1>Not so much anymore because a lot of kids don't

0:10:37.520 --> 0:10:41.160
<v Speaker 1>know it anymore. But a song from the seventies called

0:10:41.200 --> 0:10:46.800
<v Speaker 1>Evie there's parts one, two and three. Jesus So I

0:10:46.800 --> 0:10:49.560
<v Speaker 1>get a lot of men, a lot of men singing

0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:58.400
<v Speaker 1>that to me. Eh, even hang dud it Stevie Wright

0:10:58.760 --> 0:11:05.000
<v Speaker 1>saying that about ourn ex girlfriend called Edi who it was? Ah,

0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:08.200
<v Speaker 1>it was a very sad song if you actually read

0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:11.120
<v Speaker 1>the lyrics. It's a very sad song anyway, to let

0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:14.679
<v Speaker 1>your hair down. I don't know if Stevie ever knew this,

0:11:15.640 --> 0:11:19.520
<v Speaker 1>but the origin in Tudor, England. You know, Tudor England

0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:21.960
<v Speaker 1>is and boiling all of that kind of stuff, you know,

0:11:22.040 --> 0:11:25.760
<v Speaker 1>the do that cut everyone's heads off. The ladies were

0:11:26.160 --> 0:11:32.480
<v Speaker 1>war pointed bonnets called wimples underneath their hats. Their hair

0:11:32.679 --> 0:11:37.200
<v Speaker 1>was piled high and pinned up naturally. In the bedchamber,

0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:41.080
<v Speaker 1>caps and hats were removed. It was a time for

0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:46.520
<v Speaker 1>wanton behavior and abandonment, but only in the bedroom and

0:11:46.720 --> 0:11:53.240
<v Speaker 1>in private. Hence, letting one's hair down was a practical

0:11:53.640 --> 0:12:00.839
<v Speaker 1>as well as a symbolic thing. So and and and

0:12:00.960 --> 0:12:04.440
<v Speaker 1>let your hair hang down. Oh wait, oh no, that's

0:12:04.480 --> 0:12:11.320
<v Speaker 1>your head rolling down the Tudor path. Bloody William who

0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:17.680
<v Speaker 1>was the guy that cut King King King Chop a Lot.

0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:23.320
<v Speaker 1>I'll call him Henry, Henry the Eighth, I am, I Am,

0:12:23.400 --> 0:12:27.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm Henry the Eighth. I am. Everyone's heads off because

0:12:27.400 --> 0:12:32.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm an ass hole. That's what I do. So let

0:12:32.520 --> 0:12:35.000
<v Speaker 1>your hair hang down, but not your head. Okay, I

0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:38.600
<v Speaker 1>think that's the moral of that story. Anyway, here's wonderful

0:12:39.960 --> 0:12:42.679
<v Speaker 1>the word on the stream, but the fire in your

0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:48.600
<v Speaker 1>heart is I'm sure you've heard it before, but you've

0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:58.319
<v Speaker 1>never really had down. You forgot that last week. By

0:12:58.360 --> 0:13:00.200
<v Speaker 1>the way, don't think I didn't know it. Yes,
