Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome back to the Mass Funny Podcast with
Speaker 1: me Joshua Fox. I hope you're all having a very
Speaker 1: lovely weekend, because I'm having a rather unexpected one, which
Speaker 1: started with an encounter with Jackie and Clint in Sydney
Speaker 1: airport this morning. So as I woke up, I got
Speaker 1: a phone call from a paparazzi friend and he told
Speaker 1: me Jackie and Clin or on the way to Sydney,
Speaker 1: and he gave me their flight details, which I assume
Speaker 1: he got from either Jackie or Clint so they could
Speaker 1: get papped when they arrive. So off I went to
Speaker 1: say gooday and ask a few questions. And I suppose
Speaker 1: the main reason I went is firstly, I haven't actually
Speaker 1: met I've read these two yet, and secondly, there's just
Speaker 1: been so much stuff in the media over the last
Speaker 1: week or so, with Jackie and Ryan's drama escalating to
Speaker 1: the courts now and Jackie being caught out for various
Speaker 1: remarks he's made about women online. I suppose I just
Speaker 1: wanted to ask her about all this directly, and I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna lie.
Speaker 2: It got pretty awkward now.
Speaker 1: Things started off well, you know, I kept it light
Speaker 1: and fun as they landed and stepped into the terminal.
Speaker 1: Welcome to this innty guys, who wants to take the microphone?
Speaker 2: Why are you're in bars? Jacks? Sorry? It was so
Speaker 2: peaceful and oh you're in sitting out. It's whole different game.
Speaker 1: Now I've got to ask you one thing though, Jackie
Speaker 1: said on TikTok she's richer than yous.
Speaker 2: This's true? No comment, no comment? Can we get the
Speaker 2: back statements out? What would you? Sorry? You lost me
Speaker 2: with the accident.
Speaker 1: Do you need to borrow some money?
Speaker 2: Josh? Yes? Please? Well I was surprised you too. Are
Speaker 2: you shouting goodness tonight? You two? Flame Jetstar? It doesn't
Speaker 2: really go with the brand representing on the show, does it.
Speaker 2: We flew from Lotty. It was fine.
Speaker 1: It wasn't long enough to get any bottle service, so
Speaker 1: we just wanted to get here.
Speaker 2: Then.
Speaker 1: You know, once we've established a bit of a friendly
Speaker 1: back and forth, it was time to move towards more
Speaker 1: newsworthy things of late. And Jackie, you've been getting a
Speaker 1: bit of flak lately for comments of making towards women.
Speaker 2: He wastro apologize comments woman I made commines towards my
Speaker 2: ex No, you said something about your card women's sluts.
Speaker 2: No I didn't. On a TikTok live she did.
Speaker 1: I've got the video for anyone confused. This is the
Speaker 1: video I'm referring to, by the way of Clint and
Speaker 1: Jackie are on TikTok Live recently, where Jackie did indeed
Speaker 1: refer to women as sluts. Where is Ryan? He's probably
Speaker 1: in camp, He's probably Then after that, it just got awkward,
Speaker 1: like Jackie was staring at me, not saying anything. Clint
Speaker 1: was holding my mic, unsure what to say. People were
Speaker 1: looking at us, and bear in mind, we're still walking
Speaker 1: through the terminal, and I'm just awkwardly like laughing. It
Speaker 1: was so awkward, and it felt like Jackie was just
Speaker 1: staring into my soul. Jackie, it's a video out there.
Speaker 1: Oh this is scary enough. Are you gonna sign? I'm
Speaker 1: gonna take the mic back if you want. Clint, that's
Speaker 1: a great interview there, Thank you very much. Then, as
Speaker 1: Jackie and Clint proceeded to collect their bags, the other
Speaker 1: paparazzi and Ali from dyea mail arrived and the awkwardness
Speaker 1: faded a little bit as everyone chatted. Then I got
Speaker 1: my microphone back out because I wanted to ask Jackie
Speaker 1: about the av oh she's taken out against Ryan and
Speaker 1: the one he's now applied to have taken out against her,
Speaker 1: because she's posting quite relentlessly about this on social media.
Speaker 1: And I'll be fully honest with you guys, I'm confused
Speaker 1: by the whole situation. Now before I play the audio,
Speaker 1: here's just a bit of background to everything. So all
Speaker 1: season long, as we know, Jackie has been going rogan
Speaker 1: social media, saying Channel nine won't silence her, and she's
Speaker 1: been sharing her side to everything, which personally I've kind
Speaker 1: of loved, Like I generally think good on any cast
Speaker 1: member for not allowing the network to prevent them from
Speaker 1: defending their character or speaking out.
Speaker 2: So yeah, as I said, good on Jackie, and I.
Speaker 1: Have enjoyed watching her on TV, Like we all have
Speaker 1: to admit, she has been entertainment. Back to social media
Speaker 1: now though, and with Jackie's rogue posts, she's obviously spoken
Speaker 1: about Ryan a fairbit and she has made several accusations
Speaker 1: and remas against him, and he's then responded defending himself
Speaker 1: and then making his own claims about Jackie and again
Speaker 1: to be honest with you, it's been relentless. Like to
Speaker 1: me and many other fans of the show, that endless
Speaker 1: back and forth has been impossible to keep up with.
Speaker 1: And then Jackie having an apprehended violence sort of taken
Speaker 1: out against Ryan last week and him then applying to
Speaker 1: have one taken out against her in response, it really
Speaker 1: is hard to know, like is this real or is
Speaker 1: this a continuation of there?
Speaker 2: He said?
Speaker 1: She said, point scoring that's been playing out on their
Speaker 1: instagrams and TikTok pages all season long now, because that's
Speaker 1: genuinely what a lot of people think it is, and
Speaker 1: a lot of people also think this is potentially just
Speaker 1: a massive misuse of court resources, and this confusion about
Speaker 1: what's real and what's just the extreme escalation of the
Speaker 1: social media back and forth wasn't helped by the fact
Speaker 1: that their initial report by The Canberra Times, who were
Speaker 1: present in court when Jackie took out her AVO, quote
Speaker 1: her as asking magistrate and miscure if the restraint order
Speaker 1: application could be served via social media. The magistrate is
Speaker 1: then quoted as responding saying, no, using social media to
Speaker 1: serve restraint orders is completely inappropriate. Yet despite that, a
Speaker 1: sorts close to Jackie since claimed that she never said
Speaker 1: that in court and that her words have been misreported
Speaker 1: there and that she wasn't asking for this to be
Speaker 1: served on social media, again, which just adds to the
Speaker 1: overall confusion of this whole thing. So this is why
Speaker 1: I generally felt it was important of me, before ever
Speaker 1: reporting on the AVOs to ask Jackie if she took
Speaker 1: the order out because she genuinely fears for her safety
Speaker 1: or was it just so she could post about it
Speaker 1: on social media and keep the drama going. And this
Speaker 1: is what Jackie said to me in the airport. Did
Speaker 1: you genuine fair for your safety with him?
Speaker 2: I am scared? Yeah, I yes, Okay, so that's valid.
Speaker 1: That's been taken out. So just I am happy to
Speaker 1: comment that there's a lot of fake news out there,
Speaker 1: and he does have a smear campaign out against me
Speaker 1: and is sharing lies and accusing me of false accusations. So, again,
Speaker 1: just for full transparency here, I felt I couldn't report
Speaker 1: on this responsibly given how much of a pantomime the
Speaker 1: Jackie and Ryan back and forth has become without asking
Speaker 1: that question, And for journalistic fairness and balance here, it's
Speaker 1: also worth noting that Ryan denies all claims by Jackie,
Speaker 1: and the avia that he's since applied to have taken
Speaker 1: out against her is still pending and it won't be
Speaker 1: mentioned in court again until April twenty third. And this
Speaker 1: has been misreported a lot in the press lately, with
Speaker 1: articles stating that Jackie has already been served with this,
Speaker 1: which she hasn't. These things actually take weeks to happen,
Speaker 1: and as I just said, a decision on the one
Speaker 1: Ryan has applied to take out won't be made until
Speaker 1: April twenty third. And lastly, I suppose I just want
Speaker 1: to say avios are actually very serious and they really
Speaker 1: do save lives, which is why I've I've seen so
Speaker 1: many people feeling a little uneasy about how something this
Speaker 1: series has seemingly been trivialized as part of you know,
Speaker 1: reality TV drama. That's how I have felt until I
Speaker 1: did ask Jackie, and that again is why I didn't
Speaker 1: want to report on this until I could clarify with
Speaker 1: her myself.
Speaker 2: Anyway, that's all I've got for you today.
Speaker 1: There will be a lot more content on my socials
Speaker 1: throughout the day because thirteen cast members have flown into
Speaker 1: Sydney for a second reunion to sit down and watch
Speaker 1: the original reunion, which was filmed many months ago now,
Speaker 1: and guess what, guys, I'm going to be there. I'm
Speaker 1: going to be amongst these people watching them watch themselves,
Speaker 1: and I think it's going to be wild. So shout
Speaker 1: out to Daily Mail for organizing all of that. All
Speaker 1: the drama is going to be on their website that
Speaker 1: articles constantly dropping, and I'm excited
