0:00:25.304 --> 0:00:28.144
<v Speaker 2>From Mamma Mia. Welcome to the Spill your daily pop

0:00:28.184 --> 0:00:31.184
<v Speaker 2>culture fix. I'm a Murnham and I'm Laura Brodneck. On

0:00:31.224 --> 0:00:34.344
<v Speaker 2>today's show, we are talking about a new Netflix series

0:00:34.384 --> 0:00:38.184
<v Speaker 2>called Monsters, based on the Menandez brothers. Kim Kardashian is involved.

0:00:38.304 --> 0:00:41.224
<v Speaker 2>We will be unpacking that. Plus Katy Perry has a

0:00:41.264 --> 0:00:42.704
<v Speaker 2>new Australian enemy.

0:00:42.864 --> 0:00:46.544
<v Speaker 1>But first, but first, we have some very exciting movie news,

0:00:46.584 --> 0:00:49.344
<v Speaker 1>well exciting for anyone who is a Marvel fan, which,

0:00:49.424 --> 0:00:51.664
<v Speaker 1>judging by the box office numbers for that franchise, is

0:00:51.704 --> 0:00:55.784
<v Speaker 1>pretty much everyone in the entire year. So the first

0:00:55.824 --> 0:00:59.384
<v Speaker 1>trailer for the new Thunderbolts movie came out today. Have

0:00:59.464 --> 0:00:59.944
<v Speaker 1>you seen it?

0:01:00.184 --> 0:01:03.904
<v Speaker 2>I have seen Okay, confession, I watched it without the

0:01:03.984 --> 0:01:04.424
<v Speaker 2>sound on.

0:01:04.744 --> 0:01:07.224
<v Speaker 1>Okay, then you would have missed completely all of the context.

0:01:07.424 --> 0:01:08.544
<v Speaker 2>I was already the captions.

0:01:08.624 --> 0:01:11.184
<v Speaker 1>Okay. I'm going to suggest that you watch it again

0:01:11.224 --> 0:01:13.504
<v Speaker 1>with sound, just because the delivery of the lines and

0:01:13.504 --> 0:01:15.784
<v Speaker 1>the music and you know, the action is a very

0:01:15.784 --> 0:01:17.104
<v Speaker 1>pivotal part it's very fun.

0:01:17.224 --> 0:01:18.144
<v Speaker 2>Florence Peugh's in it.

0:01:18.264 --> 0:01:20.704
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Florence Pew is the new leading lady for Marvel.

0:01:20.744 --> 0:01:22.424
<v Speaker 1>And I've got to say, you know how we watched

0:01:22.424 --> 0:01:24.944
<v Speaker 1>that when we went to see Deadpool together and there

0:01:25.024 --> 0:01:27.784
<v Speaker 1>was that great joke where Ryan Reynolds character on Deadpool

0:01:28.024 --> 0:01:29.544
<v Speaker 1>turns to the audience says, oh, come on, you know,

0:01:29.664 --> 0:01:32.024
<v Speaker 1>no one's cared about Marvel since Endgame, and everyone's like,

0:01:32.384 --> 0:01:33.144
<v Speaker 1>it's kind of fair.

0:01:33.264 --> 0:01:34.304
<v Speaker 2>That's so true.

0:01:34.384 --> 0:01:37.344
<v Speaker 1>So Florence Pugh is back as Julena, and also David

0:01:37.424 --> 0:01:40.504
<v Speaker 1>Harbar's character Alexi. They were both introduced in the Black

0:01:40.504 --> 0:01:43.304
<v Speaker 1>Widow movie. I feel like now it feels like Marvel

0:01:43.384 --> 0:01:45.384
<v Speaker 1>is kind of finding its feet again. Obviously they're finding

0:01:45.384 --> 0:01:47.984
<v Speaker 1>their feet on TV because agathat all Along is amazing.

0:01:48.184 --> 0:01:49.984
<v Speaker 1>But I feel like this is the most excited that

0:01:50.064 --> 0:01:53.584
<v Speaker 1>I many fans have been for a movie release because

0:01:53.584 --> 0:01:55.744
<v Speaker 1>it feels that the story is being reset. It feels fresh,

0:01:55.824 --> 0:01:58.984
<v Speaker 1>it feels interesting. So you've got Florence Pugh and David

0:01:58.984 --> 0:02:03.424
<v Speaker 1>Harbart teaming up with Sebastian stan Why Russell Alga Klenko

0:02:03.784 --> 0:02:06.424
<v Speaker 1>for this new story, and they're like the B team

0:02:06.704 --> 0:02:08.024
<v Speaker 1>of the of the Avengers.

0:02:08.024 --> 0:02:10.464
<v Speaker 2>They do we know where this takes place on the timeline, Like,

0:02:10.584 --> 0:02:12.784
<v Speaker 2>is it now like modern like present time?

0:02:12.864 --> 0:02:14.744
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's kind of present time. So if you want

0:02:14.784 --> 0:02:17.104
<v Speaker 1>to kind of track Yolena's character, which is Florence Pugh,

0:02:17.184 --> 0:02:19.744
<v Speaker 1>she was introduced in Black Widow. She then made an

0:02:19.744 --> 0:02:20.904
<v Speaker 1>appearance in Hawkeye the.

0:02:20.864 --> 0:02:23.744
<v Speaker 2>TV series, and this was Hayley Steinfeld.

0:02:23.904 --> 0:02:26.144
<v Speaker 1>Yes, and this is kind of picking up up after

0:02:26.264 --> 0:02:29.304
<v Speaker 1>Black Panther because also Julie Louis Dreyfus's character is in it,

0:02:29.344 --> 0:02:32.464
<v Speaker 1>So that's kind of where past ant Man Quantumania, we'll

0:02:32.464 --> 0:02:35.824
<v Speaker 1>just forget that existed past Black Panther. And now we're

0:02:35.904 --> 0:02:38.584
<v Speaker 1>kind of setting the scene for this new batch of

0:02:38.664 --> 0:02:41.064
<v Speaker 1>Marvel characters. And they're kind of like the Rogue b Team,

0:02:41.144 --> 0:02:43.304
<v Speaker 1>like they kind of like failed assassins or fail villains,

0:02:43.304 --> 0:02:44.984
<v Speaker 1>and they have the team up and it just looks so.

0:02:44.984 --> 0:02:46.544
<v Speaker 2>Reminds me of like Suicide Squad.

0:02:46.824 --> 0:02:48.304
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, a little bit like that would bring a bit

0:02:48.304 --> 0:02:51.264
<v Speaker 1>more humor back into the Marvel universe. Anyway, I'm very excited.

0:02:51.304 --> 0:02:53.304
<v Speaker 1>It was actually delayed for a while due to the

0:02:53.304 --> 0:02:56.784
<v Speaker 1>writers and actress strikes last year, and so the movie

0:02:56.864 --> 0:02:59.224
<v Speaker 1>is coming out in May. Of next year, So you're excited.

0:02:59.384 --> 0:03:01.464
<v Speaker 2>I'm very excited. I also have some trailer news.

0:03:01.584 --> 0:03:02.184
<v Speaker 1>Oh, what is it?

0:03:02.264 --> 0:03:07.624
<v Speaker 2>Gladiator? The second trailer? The second trailer for Gladiator too. Yes, yes,

0:03:07.704 --> 0:03:11.304
<v Speaker 2>so we did unpack the first trailer. We will link

0:03:11.344 --> 0:03:13.504
<v Speaker 2>that in our show notes. But I'm just obsessed. And

0:03:13.544 --> 0:03:16.624
<v Speaker 2>this is the first time I've actually seen Paul Meskal talk.

0:03:16.424 --> 0:03:18.424
<v Speaker 1>In character seriously this trailer.

0:03:18.504 --> 0:03:20.304
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because he didn't talk in the first trailer.

0:03:20.384 --> 0:03:23.104
<v Speaker 1>So true. Well, infamously, spillers, you would know that Paul

0:03:23.144 --> 0:03:26.704
<v Speaker 1>Mescale is Emily's very favorite actor of all time, and

0:03:26.744 --> 0:03:28.744
<v Speaker 1>she has yet to see him act anything, has never

0:03:28.744 --> 0:03:30.864
<v Speaker 1>seen any of his TV shows or movies. So when

0:03:30.864 --> 0:03:32.464
<v Speaker 1>you see Gladiator, this is gonna be a big moment

0:03:32.504 --> 0:03:32.904
<v Speaker 1>for Yeah.

0:03:32.944 --> 0:03:34.384
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he's already given me the echo some of

0:03:34.384 --> 0:03:40.104
<v Speaker 2>his dialect. But it's fine. So there is a new

0:03:40.264 --> 0:03:44.544
<v Speaker 2>series out on Netflix done by Ryan Murphy. It's called Monsters,

0:03:44.624 --> 0:03:47.864
<v Speaker 2>The Lyle and Eric Menendez Story, and it's based on

0:03:47.904 --> 0:03:50.784
<v Speaker 2>the true crime story of these two brothers, their brothers.

0:03:51.184 --> 0:03:54.784
<v Speaker 2>So this is the second season of Ryan Murphy's series

0:03:54.824 --> 0:03:57.744
<v Speaker 2>called Monsters. The first one was on Jeffrey Dharma, which

0:03:58.064 --> 0:03:59.584
<v Speaker 2>I think was highly controversial.

0:03:59.944 --> 0:04:02.184
<v Speaker 1>It was highly controversial in that people thought it was

0:04:02.224 --> 0:04:05.864
<v Speaker 1>like over glamorizing Dama's story and all his brutal murders.

0:04:06.064 --> 0:04:08.624
<v Speaker 1>But at the same time it you know, did very

0:04:08.624 --> 0:04:10.864
<v Speaker 1>well for Netflix if the numbers are really high, and

0:04:10.904 --> 0:04:13.224
<v Speaker 1>it had quite a lot of critical acclaim Like Evan Peters,

0:04:13.264 --> 0:04:15.584
<v Speaker 1>who played Jeffrey Darmer, won some big awards for it,

0:04:15.704 --> 0:04:17.824
<v Speaker 1>so he was one of the ones that people pushing

0:04:17.864 --> 0:04:19.264
<v Speaker 1>against but also over and watched it.

0:04:19.304 --> 0:04:23.624
<v Speaker 2>And Nicy Nash also one yes beautiful speech, so he's

0:04:23.664 --> 0:04:26.264
<v Speaker 2>gotten the same feedback for this series of course, of

0:04:26.344 --> 0:04:30.464
<v Speaker 2>over glamorizing this true crime story. So basically the true

0:04:30.504 --> 0:04:33.584
<v Speaker 2>story is about Lyle and Eric Menandez, who were two

0:04:33.624 --> 0:04:37.704
<v Speaker 2>brothers who were convicted for murdering their parents in nineteen

0:04:37.744 --> 0:04:40.704
<v Speaker 2>eighty nine. They were aged eighteen and twenty two at

0:04:40.704 --> 0:04:45.224
<v Speaker 2>the time. What happened was they killed the parents, but

0:04:45.384 --> 0:04:47.864
<v Speaker 2>they didn't immediately know that they were the killers, so

0:04:48.464 --> 0:04:51.904
<v Speaker 2>they spent around two months of just living this really

0:04:52.064 --> 0:04:55.904
<v Speaker 2>glamorous life. So their dad was quite wealthy. It's predicted

0:04:55.904 --> 0:04:59.224
<v Speaker 2>that they spent seven hundred thousand dollars in two months

0:04:59.464 --> 0:05:02.024
<v Speaker 2>wow before they were caught. As like the killers of

0:05:02.064 --> 0:05:05.304
<v Speaker 2>their parents. They were trialed separately and then it was

0:05:05.304 --> 0:05:07.264
<v Speaker 2>a hung jury, and then they were trialed together and

0:05:07.304 --> 0:05:10.064
<v Speaker 2>they were convicted for first degree murder. And they did

0:05:10.104 --> 0:05:14.384
<v Speaker 2>say that they were abused by their father and neglected

0:05:14.384 --> 0:05:16.824
<v Speaker 2>by their mother, but that was dismissed in court, so

0:05:16.824 --> 0:05:20.824
<v Speaker 2>they're now facing a life sentence in prison. What happened

0:05:21.144 --> 0:05:24.784
<v Speaker 2>was that when this series came out, similar to the

0:05:24.864 --> 0:05:28.344
<v Speaker 2>Jeffrey Darmer series, people were highly critical of it for

0:05:28.424 --> 0:05:32.344
<v Speaker 2>not just over glamorizing the story, but for also making

0:05:32.344 --> 0:05:36.424
<v Speaker 2>it weirdly sexy. Yeah, like they made it very salacious,

0:05:36.504 --> 0:05:38.864
<v Speaker 2>like the boys are always in like speedos and are

0:05:38.904 --> 0:05:42.264
<v Speaker 2>like looking really hot. Forgetting that not only is this

0:05:42.344 --> 0:05:45.744
<v Speaker 2>like a murdercine, but also it involved trauma from both

0:05:45.744 --> 0:05:48.384
<v Speaker 2>of these boys who experience this from their parents, and

0:05:48.584 --> 0:05:52.304
<v Speaker 2>people are completely ignoring that. Eric put out a statement

0:05:52.544 --> 0:05:56.664
<v Speaker 2>through his wife's Twitter account kind of calling out Netflix

0:05:56.784 --> 0:06:00.304
<v Speaker 2>and Ryan Murphy. It's a massive statement. I'm just gonna

0:06:00.304 --> 0:06:01.784
<v Speaker 2>read you a part of it. This is what he said.

0:06:02.544 --> 0:06:04.984
<v Speaker 2>I believe we had moved on beyond the lies and

0:06:05.064 --> 0:06:08.904
<v Speaker 2>ruinous character portrayals of Lyle talking about his brother creating

0:06:08.944 --> 0:06:12.544
<v Speaker 2>a characterture of Lyle rooted in horrible and blatant lies

0:06:12.664 --> 0:06:15.304
<v Speaker 2>rampant in the show. I can only believe they were

0:06:15.344 --> 0:06:17.584
<v Speaker 2>done so on purpose. It was a heavy heart that

0:06:17.664 --> 0:06:20.824
<v Speaker 2>I say, I believe Ryan Murphy cannot be this naive

0:06:20.904 --> 0:06:23.944
<v Speaker 2>and inaccurate about the facts of our lives so as

0:06:23.984 --> 0:06:27.864
<v Speaker 2>to do this without bad intent. There's so much more

0:06:27.904 --> 0:06:29.624
<v Speaker 2>of the statement. I think we'll put it on our

0:06:29.664 --> 0:06:32.464
<v Speaker 2>Instagram so you can read it. But he basically called

0:06:32.464 --> 0:06:35.264
<v Speaker 2>that Ryan Murphy. He called out Netflix, and he was

0:06:35.304 --> 0:06:39.504
<v Speaker 2>talking about how usually these kind of shows, like these

0:06:39.824 --> 0:06:42.184
<v Speaker 2>murder shows, I feel like what the director and the

0:06:42.224 --> 0:06:45.464
<v Speaker 2>creator try to do is kind of show the story

0:06:45.664 --> 0:06:49.184
<v Speaker 2>of the victims. And with this show, what Eric was

0:06:49.184 --> 0:06:51.144
<v Speaker 2>saying is that it just made it so much worse.

0:06:51.504 --> 0:06:53.824
<v Speaker 1>Right, So it was more trying to take this idea

0:06:53.864 --> 0:06:58.184
<v Speaker 1>of what people thought, these almost glamorous, wealthy killers, what

0:06:58.264 --> 0:07:01.464
<v Speaker 1>their story was, and below that up for entertainment instead

0:07:01.464 --> 0:07:03.904
<v Speaker 1>of trying to say, like, this is like a way

0:07:03.944 --> 0:07:06.904
<v Speaker 1>of using drama and storytelling to tell the stories of victims.

0:07:06.984 --> 0:07:09.704
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and the fact that they're still alive, they're still

0:07:09.784 --> 0:07:14.144
<v Speaker 2>facing a life sentence in prison. They constantly talk about

0:07:14.424 --> 0:07:18.664
<v Speaker 2>male victims of sexual violence. And it's kind of disheartening

0:07:18.744 --> 0:07:22.024
<v Speaker 2>because I think doing these stories are so dangerous when

0:07:22.224 --> 0:07:24.784
<v Speaker 2>the people who have still been impacted and were victims

0:07:24.784 --> 0:07:26.704
<v Speaker 2>are still alive and are there to watch it.

0:07:26.904 --> 0:07:28.584
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And that's the hard thing about when you want

0:07:28.624 --> 0:07:30.624
<v Speaker 1>to try and take a true story and turn it

0:07:30.624 --> 0:07:32.584
<v Speaker 1>into a drama is that you can't tell it like

0:07:32.624 --> 0:07:34.424
<v Speaker 1>a documentary. You can't have like then, this happened, and

0:07:34.464 --> 0:07:36.864
<v Speaker 1>this happened, this happened, And the same with Dhamar is

0:07:36.864 --> 0:07:38.944
<v Speaker 1>that you've got to stay with this character all through

0:07:38.984 --> 0:07:41.904
<v Speaker 1>the show and stay with him through the awful gore

0:07:41.944 --> 0:07:44.744
<v Speaker 1>and violence. So you also have to have moments where

0:07:44.784 --> 0:07:47.384
<v Speaker 1>you humanize him while you understand him or you see

0:07:47.424 --> 0:07:50.584
<v Speaker 1>things through his eyes, which is very disturbing. And when

0:07:50.584 --> 0:07:53.064
<v Speaker 1>it's a fictional character, it's upsetting to watch, but at

0:07:53.144 --> 0:07:54.664
<v Speaker 1>least you can see like, oh, this is part of

0:07:54.664 --> 0:07:57.064
<v Speaker 1>the storytelling. But when it's a real person and all

0:07:57.104 --> 0:07:58.824
<v Speaker 1>of the family members are watching. This is why I

0:07:58.864 --> 0:08:01.504
<v Speaker 1>have such an issue with true crime and entertainment, and

0:08:01.544 --> 0:08:02.984
<v Speaker 1>not to get to my high horse, because I know

0:08:03.064 --> 0:08:05.424
<v Speaker 1>I watch a lot of problematic shit, but I also

0:08:05.544 --> 0:08:08.824
<v Speaker 1>don't watch true crime or listen to True Prime podcast

0:08:08.904 --> 0:08:11.864
<v Speaker 1>personally because I just find part of it to murky,

0:08:12.104 --> 0:08:14.464
<v Speaker 1>but also to find it enjoyable. And I think that's

0:08:14.504 --> 0:08:16.584
<v Speaker 1>the thing is like the way Ryan Murphy does it

0:08:16.624 --> 0:08:19.344
<v Speaker 1>is that he is a master of making things enjoyable

0:08:19.344 --> 0:08:22.064
<v Speaker 1>and enticing to watch, and that's what he's done and

0:08:22.064 --> 0:08:25.184
<v Speaker 1>that's why people watch his work. So it also feels

0:08:25.184 --> 0:08:26.824
<v Speaker 1>a little bit rich for some of the fans, not

0:08:26.864 --> 0:08:28.584
<v Speaker 1>the people involved in the case, it feels a bit

0:08:28.664 --> 0:08:30.904
<v Speaker 1>rich for me for some of the fans to then

0:08:30.944 --> 0:08:34.864
<v Speaker 1>get upset about the content that they've always consumed from him.

0:08:35.104 --> 0:08:37.424
<v Speaker 2>Hmm. That's such a good point. I also think just

0:08:37.464 --> 0:08:39.624
<v Speaker 2>the case that he chose in general is just so

0:08:39.744 --> 0:08:44.104
<v Speaker 2>highly contentious because I assume that this Monster series would

0:08:44.144 --> 0:08:47.184
<v Speaker 2>be just about serial killers because kind of black and

0:08:47.184 --> 0:08:49.904
<v Speaker 2>white in the sense where like bad person, bad person

0:08:49.984 --> 0:08:53.024
<v Speaker 2>kills other people, Whereas this is a case where these

0:08:53.064 --> 0:08:56.864
<v Speaker 2>brothers killed their parents, but their case was that because

0:08:56.864 --> 0:08:59.944
<v Speaker 2>they were being abused, right, and they're also victims, and

0:09:00.224 --> 0:09:03.624
<v Speaker 2>having them fall under a series as titled Monsters just

0:09:03.624 --> 0:09:04.704
<v Speaker 2>seems so weird to me.

0:09:05.024 --> 0:09:07.104
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, exactly, that is wildly problematic.

0:09:07.424 --> 0:09:11.264
<v Speaker 2>So this has blown up. Kim Kardashian was actually she's

0:09:12.104 --> 0:09:14.784
<v Speaker 2>paying a visit to the prison. We know she's like

0:09:14.904 --> 0:09:16.464
<v Speaker 2>a lawyer, now.

0:09:16.464 --> 0:09:18.184
<v Speaker 1>Well, she works a lot in prison reform.

0:09:18.264 --> 0:09:21.144
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so she visited the prison where Eric and Layla

0:09:21.264 --> 0:09:24.664
<v Speaker 2>held over the last weekend. She was also joined by

0:09:24.664 --> 0:09:26.904
<v Speaker 2>one of the stars on the show, Cooper Karsh, who

0:09:26.904 --> 0:09:30.384
<v Speaker 2>plays Eric, as well as his sister Chloe and mum Chris.

0:09:30.504 --> 0:09:34.104
<v Speaker 2>It hasn't actually been proven that she visited the men specifically,

0:09:34.224 --> 0:09:35.624
<v Speaker 2>but that she was just pictured there.

0:09:35.944 --> 0:09:38.544
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, which she does a lot, I have to say,

0:09:38.544 --> 0:09:40.144
<v Speaker 1>And I know there's also been a lot of contention

0:09:40.224 --> 0:09:42.384
<v Speaker 1>about that over the years, of people saying she's using

0:09:42.424 --> 0:09:43.704
<v Speaker 1>it for publicity.

0:09:43.304 --> 0:09:44.784
<v Speaker 2>Because you know, the same with Gypsy Rows.

0:09:44.904 --> 0:09:46.704
<v Speaker 1>Well, I think, yeah, I guess that was also about

0:09:46.704 --> 0:09:48.824
<v Speaker 1>prison reform. That also felt like just a great moment

0:09:48.864 --> 0:09:50.944
<v Speaker 1>for the Kardashians as a TV series that they were

0:09:50.944 --> 0:09:52.984
<v Speaker 1>looking to film. But I think my thoughts on Kim

0:09:53.064 --> 0:09:55.704
<v Speaker 1>Kardashian's prison reform is that it doesn't matter that she's

0:09:55.704 --> 0:09:59.224
<v Speaker 1>doing it for publicity, because particularly the women that were

0:09:59.424 --> 0:10:02.424
<v Speaker 1>sentenced for like really tiny crimes and just didn't have

0:10:02.464 --> 0:10:04.384
<v Speaker 1>the legal help or the money to sort of get

0:10:04.384 --> 0:10:06.904
<v Speaker 1>themselves out of it that have been released after twenty years.

0:10:06.984 --> 0:10:09.264
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't matter to them that it's publicity, Like you

0:10:09.304 --> 0:10:11.384
<v Speaker 1>can really see the act. It's not like she's just

0:10:11.384 --> 0:10:13.424
<v Speaker 1>walking red carpets and talking about it or she's going

0:10:13.424 --> 0:10:16.544
<v Speaker 1>to fundraising events. Like there's so many women in particular

0:10:16.624 --> 0:10:18.704
<v Speaker 1>that have got out of prison when they would have

0:10:18.784 --> 0:10:20.384
<v Speaker 1>just been left out a rot and like never see

0:10:20.384 --> 0:10:22.944
<v Speaker 1>their families again because of Kim Kardashian. So I feel

0:10:22.984 --> 0:10:26.144
<v Speaker 1>like in this case, the outcome is worthy of any

0:10:26.264 --> 0:10:29.544
<v Speaker 1>kind of allegations of publicity. So I don't think it's

0:10:29.584 --> 0:10:32.264
<v Speaker 1>strange that she was there, but it seems very telling

0:10:32.304 --> 0:10:33.784
<v Speaker 1>that she was there with the actor, like she was

0:10:33.824 --> 0:10:36.424
<v Speaker 1>trying to sort of get involved in this particular case.

0:10:36.504 --> 0:10:39.224
<v Speaker 2>Right now in that specific prison. They've said that she

0:10:39.944 --> 0:10:42.504
<v Speaker 2>is working on beautifying the gardens in prison, which is

0:10:42.504 --> 0:10:45.664
<v Speaker 2>also the same project that Lyle and Eric are both working. Yeah,

0:10:46.104 --> 0:10:47.944
<v Speaker 2>so I'm not sure if she jumped on that bandwagon,

0:10:48.024 --> 0:10:49.984
<v Speaker 2>if it was just like a happy coincident.

0:10:50.024 --> 0:10:52.264
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure it's someone's brought that to her attention. It's

0:10:52.344 --> 0:10:55.344
<v Speaker 1>kind of working with the whole situation there, And also interestingly,

0:10:55.464 --> 0:10:58.224
<v Speaker 1>is like she's also extremely close to Ryan Murphy as

0:10:58.264 --> 0:11:00.664
<v Speaker 1>we know that he cast her in American Horror Story.

0:11:01.104 --> 0:11:04.984
<v Speaker 1>He made the oj Simpson TV series which also start

0:11:05.024 --> 0:11:08.064
<v Speaker 1>actors as her family, and like the younger Kardashians, kind

0:11:08.064 --> 0:11:10.064
<v Speaker 1>of got her into acting with American Horror Story. He's

0:11:10.104 --> 0:11:13.024
<v Speaker 1>now like co producing her new big TV show that's

0:11:13.064 --> 0:11:15.464
<v Speaker 1>coming out, so like they're really in business together, which

0:11:15.504 --> 0:11:17.424
<v Speaker 1>is adding another layer to this whole situation.

0:11:17.504 --> 0:11:19.104
<v Speaker 2>And I'd love to be a fly on the wall

0:11:19.184 --> 0:11:21.624
<v Speaker 2>for that little me and great. We have written a

0:11:21.664 --> 0:11:24.744
<v Speaker 2>lot about this TV show and everything that's happened behind

0:11:24.784 --> 0:11:27.224
<v Speaker 2>the scenes on making it. If you want more, we

0:11:27.304 --> 0:11:29.104
<v Speaker 2>will link those pieces in our show notes.

0:11:31.064 --> 0:11:41.064
<v Speaker 1>And well, in the words of one Emily Vernon, Katy

0:11:41.184 --> 0:11:44.704
<v Speaker 1>Perry has a new Australian enemy. Is that we're labeling this.

0:11:44.984 --> 0:11:46.704
<v Speaker 1>If you don't know where that joke's coming from, I

0:11:46.744 --> 0:11:49.584
<v Speaker 1>think everyone would know. We're talking about a couple of

0:11:49.664 --> 0:11:53.464
<v Speaker 1>years ago when Katy Perry so Catherine Hudson, the singer,

0:11:54.144 --> 0:11:58.304
<v Speaker 1>was involved in a legal battle with an Australian designer.

0:11:58.584 --> 0:12:02.704
<v Speaker 1>Katy Perry spelled Katie who is now Katie Jane Taylor

0:12:02.784 --> 0:12:04.624
<v Speaker 1>changed her name and this was to do with the

0:12:04.624 --> 0:12:07.344
<v Speaker 1>fact that Katie Jane Taylor. So the Australian version of

0:12:07.384 --> 0:12:11.464
<v Speaker 1>Katy Perry was selling and designing Hermeline under the label

0:12:11.544 --> 0:12:14.984
<v Speaker 1>Katy Perry since about two thousand and seven, and then

0:12:15.304 --> 0:12:19.424
<v Speaker 1>Catherine Hudson aka singer Katie Perry, initially fought the Australian

0:12:19.464 --> 0:12:22.464
<v Speaker 1>registration of the Katy Perry label. So it's a really

0:12:22.504 --> 0:12:24.664
<v Speaker 1>back and forth over who was going to get to

0:12:24.744 --> 0:12:27.544
<v Speaker 1>use the Katy Perry name spelt differently, but still Katie

0:12:27.544 --> 0:12:30.544
<v Speaker 1>Perry brilliant in Australia exactly. All of a sudden, everyone's

0:12:30.544 --> 0:12:33.384
<v Speaker 1>super aware of the Katy Perry clothing brand, and Katy

0:12:33.464 --> 0:12:37.784
<v Speaker 1>Perry the singer later withdrew the opposition and the trademark

0:12:37.904 --> 0:12:41.144
<v Speaker 1>was registered. So but that made international headlines for a

0:12:41.184 --> 0:12:43.424
<v Speaker 1>long time, that the fact that Katy Perry was in

0:12:43.464 --> 0:12:46.704
<v Speaker 1>this legal back and forth with an Australian designer. And

0:12:46.744 --> 0:12:49.984
<v Speaker 1>now she's come back for round two. Oh god, because

0:12:50.064 --> 0:12:54.744
<v Speaker 1>Katy Perry is going to performing at the AFL Do

0:12:54.824 --> 0:12:55.664
<v Speaker 1>you want to jump in here?

0:12:55.704 --> 0:13:00.184
<v Speaker 2>She's performing at the AFL Grand Final, which is this Saturday.

0:13:00.424 --> 0:13:03.744
<v Speaker 2>It is Brisbane Lyons versus Sydney, Swan.

0:13:04.424 --> 0:13:06.424
<v Speaker 1>I shouldn't really know that because I live in Sydney

0:13:06.464 --> 0:13:08.224
<v Speaker 1>and my families in Brison. Oh, this is the game

0:13:08.264 --> 0:13:09.344
<v Speaker 1>they've all been talking about.

0:13:09.464 --> 0:13:11.664
<v Speaker 2>I get it. I get big deal because AFL is

0:13:11.704 --> 0:13:14.144
<v Speaker 2>like a Victorian sport and there's no Victorian teams yes

0:13:14.224 --> 0:13:16.304
<v Speaker 2>in the grand finals. So and they're both still playing

0:13:16.344 --> 0:13:17.664
<v Speaker 2>at the MCG, which.

0:13:17.504 --> 0:13:20.544
<v Speaker 1>Is where you always What has really come out of

0:13:20.544 --> 0:13:23.464
<v Speaker 1>this year for me personally with all of the conversation

0:13:23.544 --> 0:13:26.544
<v Speaker 1>on Katy Perry's music and her like new interviews and

0:13:26.584 --> 0:13:28.624
<v Speaker 1>her new album, is that I'm just desperate to see

0:13:28.624 --> 0:13:31.384
<v Speaker 1>that woman perform live. I just, yes, I have some

0:13:31.464 --> 0:13:33.624
<v Speaker 1>questionable thoughts about her new music. I just want to

0:13:35.064 --> 0:13:37.144
<v Speaker 1>have a spare AFL ticket. I don't even need to

0:13:37.184 --> 0:13:38.584
<v Speaker 1>stay for the game. I just want to pop in

0:13:38.624 --> 0:13:39.864
<v Speaker 1>and see Katy Perry and leave.

0:13:39.944 --> 0:13:41.704
<v Speaker 2>I'm telling you right now, you're not going to get

0:13:41.704 --> 0:13:42.064
<v Speaker 2>a ticket.

0:13:42.744 --> 0:13:46.344
<v Speaker 1>We can dream. So anyway, Katy Perry is playing at

0:13:46.344 --> 0:13:49.904
<v Speaker 1>the sports event, which is really giving Super Bowl Australia vibes,

0:13:50.224 --> 0:13:50.544
<v Speaker 1>and it.

0:13:50.624 --> 0:13:53.104
<v Speaker 2>Is pretty much the Super Bowl Australia, except I feel

0:13:53.104 --> 0:13:56.664
<v Speaker 2>like when international celebrities come here to perform, they assume

0:13:56.704 --> 0:13:59.224
<v Speaker 2>it's like Super Bowl level and then are like, what is.

0:14:01.064 --> 0:14:03.824
<v Speaker 1>So, what's come out is that Katy Perry has apparently

0:14:03.864 --> 0:14:05.224
<v Speaker 1>been in a bit of a back and forth with

0:14:05.384 --> 0:14:08.544
<v Speaker 1>the AFL over the set list that she will perform

0:14:08.624 --> 0:14:12.824
<v Speaker 1>at this event. So this reported by AFL journalist Tom Morris,

0:14:12.824 --> 0:14:15.544
<v Speaker 1>first time we've quoted him on this particular podcast. So

0:14:15.824 --> 0:14:19.264
<v Speaker 1>during Tom Morris's reporting in his coverage of this very

0:14:19.424 --> 0:14:23.864
<v Speaker 1>breaking news event, AFL great Cane Korn's said, this is

0:14:23.904 --> 0:14:27.464
<v Speaker 1>a direct quote. The AFL are saying, we only want

0:14:27.504 --> 0:14:30.144
<v Speaker 1>your hits. We only want your bangers, we only want

0:14:30.184 --> 0:14:33.264
<v Speaker 1>your best stuff. We want raw, we want teenage dream,

0:14:33.344 --> 0:14:36.024
<v Speaker 1>we want firework. These are the songs we know and love.

0:14:36.264 --> 0:14:38.584
<v Speaker 1>And Katy Perry has pushed back and said, no, no, no,

0:14:38.624 --> 0:14:41.184
<v Speaker 1>I want to play two of my new songs. And

0:14:41.224 --> 0:14:44.024
<v Speaker 1>then Cane Korn's said, you know when you go to

0:14:44.024 --> 0:14:45.824
<v Speaker 1>a concert and maybe they're old and all you want

0:14:45.864 --> 0:14:47.784
<v Speaker 1>is their good stuff. You just want their greatest hits.

0:14:47.864 --> 0:14:50.144
<v Speaker 1>That's what the AFL have requested of Katy Perry, and

0:14:50.184 --> 0:14:52.984
<v Speaker 1>she's gone, no, I want to promote my new music.

0:14:53.664 --> 0:14:55.784
<v Speaker 1>And then a few of the other AFL men who

0:14:55.784 --> 0:14:57.904
<v Speaker 1>I won't name because I'm pretty sure our readers, just

0:14:57.944 --> 0:15:00.064
<v Speaker 1>like me, don't know who they are said, well, they

0:15:00.104 --> 0:15:02.304
<v Speaker 1>should have written into her contract. It's too late to

0:15:02.344 --> 0:15:04.264
<v Speaker 1>ask her something if it's not written to the contract.

0:15:04.584 --> 0:15:06.144
<v Speaker 1>In fact, they have it, Katie, You're just going to

0:15:06.224 --> 0:15:08.224
<v Speaker 1>have to come to the party. Thoughts.

0:15:10.464 --> 0:15:12.504
<v Speaker 2>I really should have been the one to bring this segment.

0:15:12.624 --> 0:15:13.264
<v Speaker 2>What do I mean?

0:15:13.384 --> 0:15:14.824
<v Speaker 1>I thought I was a great explainer.

0:15:15.024 --> 0:15:18.304
<v Speaker 2>No, you explained it. Well, I'm kind of on the

0:15:18.344 --> 0:15:19.704
<v Speaker 2>AFL side.

0:15:19.824 --> 0:15:22.944
<v Speaker 1>Hinge. Of course you are, because I'm a sports girl.

0:15:22.984 --> 0:15:23.304
<v Speaker 1>Pick me.

0:15:23.544 --> 0:15:28.104
<v Speaker 2>The people who are going to the AFL are like

0:15:29.064 --> 0:15:33.264
<v Speaker 2>crazy sports fanatics. Like they're like crazy fanatics. Like even

0:15:33.304 --> 0:15:34.944
<v Speaker 2>if I try to get a ticket, I wouldn't want

0:15:34.984 --> 0:15:38.904
<v Speaker 2>to go because I'd be insulting these people taking their spot. Okay,

0:15:39.264 --> 0:15:42.384
<v Speaker 2>so I understand why they want the hits because those

0:15:42.424 --> 0:15:44.184
<v Speaker 2>will be the only songs that the people in the

0:15:44.224 --> 0:15:46.584
<v Speaker 2>crowd would know. Okay, they're not going to be knowing

0:15:47.544 --> 0:15:50.184
<v Speaker 2>Women's World, They're not going to be knowing any other

0:15:50.224 --> 0:15:53.624
<v Speaker 2>new song she sings. They might know Swish Swish, which

0:15:53.664 --> 0:15:55.984
<v Speaker 2>I think she should have performed. And also, it's not

0:15:56.024 --> 0:15:58.424
<v Speaker 2>going to be super Bowl level, so the crowd is

0:15:58.464 --> 0:16:00.224
<v Speaker 2>not going to be that big, that into. It's not

0:16:00.224 --> 0:16:02.704
<v Speaker 2>going to be like massive celebrity. There will be Australian

0:16:02.704 --> 0:16:05.944
<v Speaker 2>celebrities going, but not like crazy a less celebrities going.

0:16:06.064 --> 0:16:07.944
<v Speaker 1>But also the woman has already done the Super Bowl

0:16:07.984 --> 0:16:09.944
<v Speaker 1>halftime show and she did like a great job, so

0:16:09.944 --> 0:16:12.264
<v Speaker 1>she's there. She had that performance level, or she can

0:16:12.344 --> 0:16:14.504
<v Speaker 1>tone it down, so she want to sing two new

0:16:14.624 --> 0:16:18.904
<v Speaker 1>songs and it'd be absolutely drop dead silence in the state.

0:16:19.504 --> 0:16:22.104
<v Speaker 1>I just think looking at from her perspective, like I said,

0:16:22.104 --> 0:16:24.184
<v Speaker 1>I think Katy Perry has got some bangers, and if

0:16:24.224 --> 0:16:26.464
<v Speaker 1>I was going to this sporting event, wherever it may

0:16:26.464 --> 0:16:28.504
<v Speaker 1>be in the world, I would love to see her

0:16:28.544 --> 0:16:30.864
<v Speaker 1>play all her hits. But at the same time, she's

0:16:30.904 --> 0:16:33.464
<v Speaker 1>a business. She's got a new album like one four

0:16:33.464 --> 0:16:35.504
<v Speaker 1>to three, her new studio album has just come out.

0:16:35.864 --> 0:16:38.544
<v Speaker 1>The reviews are bad, which I think is kind of

0:16:38.624 --> 0:16:40.584
<v Speaker 1>separate too. I think everyone's kind of really jumped in

0:16:40.624 --> 0:16:43.544
<v Speaker 1>this whole Katy Perry hate train, which is why this

0:16:43.584 --> 0:16:47.304
<v Speaker 1>story has been picked up so intensely today. Like normally

0:16:47.584 --> 0:16:50.384
<v Speaker 1>most people wouldn't be that interested in the setlist back

0:16:50.424 --> 0:16:53.144
<v Speaker 1>and forth between a singer and a football game, but

0:16:53.144 --> 0:16:55.184
<v Speaker 1>it's just because people are just like they just love

0:16:55.184 --> 0:16:57.864
<v Speaker 1>when a very famous woman is getting piled on, and

0:16:57.944 --> 0:16:59.664
<v Speaker 1>so I think a lot of people are jumping on that,

0:16:59.744 --> 0:17:01.944
<v Speaker 1>which is separate to the actual music critics that have

0:17:02.024 --> 0:17:04.424
<v Speaker 1>written like really thoughtful pieces and don't like it. That's

0:17:04.424 --> 0:17:07.384
<v Speaker 1>a separate thing. So she's got a new album to promote,

0:17:07.544 --> 0:17:09.504
<v Speaker 1>and I totally understand why she might want to push

0:17:09.584 --> 0:17:11.904
<v Speaker 1>it with two songs and say I'll do one Like

0:17:11.904 --> 0:17:13.904
<v Speaker 1>that's not That's what all artists do when they have

0:17:13.984 --> 0:17:16.784
<v Speaker 1>new music, and they do promo events like this to

0:17:16.904 --> 0:17:18.624
<v Speaker 1>get their new album out, And the whole point of

0:17:18.664 --> 0:17:20.224
<v Speaker 1>them doing that is to say I'll play a few

0:17:20.344 --> 0:17:22.264
<v Speaker 1>hits and I'll play the new music so you can

0:17:22.304 --> 0:17:24.544
<v Speaker 1>hear it, and that's how they build their business in

0:17:24.584 --> 0:17:27.744
<v Speaker 1>their career. Like, she's not crazy, No, okay, I understand

0:17:27.744 --> 0:17:28.264
<v Speaker 1>that point.

0:17:28.464 --> 0:17:31.864
<v Speaker 2>But now, because this is so well known the story,

0:17:32.184 --> 0:17:34.544
<v Speaker 2>I just know when she sings that new song, they're

0:17:34.544 --> 0:17:37.064
<v Speaker 2>going to be zooming in on like middle aged men's faces,

0:17:37.104 --> 0:17:38.304
<v Speaker 2>going what the hell is this?

0:17:38.584 --> 0:17:40.144
<v Speaker 1>I think they should be so lucky to see Katy

0:17:40.184 --> 0:17:41.384
<v Speaker 1>Perry live, is all I'm saying.

0:17:41.424 --> 0:17:42.744
<v Speaker 2>Oh, you know what I think she should do. She

0:17:42.784 --> 0:17:45.704
<v Speaker 2>should do what Robbie Williams did in twenty twenty two.

0:17:45.704 --> 0:17:47.304
<v Speaker 1>Why what was that?

0:17:48.184 --> 0:17:51.784
<v Speaker 2>So Robbie Williams played at the twenty twenty two AFL

0:17:51.824 --> 0:17:55.224
<v Speaker 2>Grand Final. He's actually an AFL fan, like he's actually

0:17:55.304 --> 0:17:57.824
<v Speaker 2>a massive supporter of Carlton, so he was having the

0:17:57.864 --> 0:18:01.064
<v Speaker 2>best time. He knew exactly what to do. He had

0:18:01.104 --> 0:18:03.864
<v Speaker 2>to play one of his new songs, which I feel

0:18:03.904 --> 0:18:06.584
<v Speaker 2>like he personally didn't want to do because like the

0:18:06.624 --> 0:18:09.144
<v Speaker 2>crowd just wanted the bangers, as you know, but he

0:18:09.224 --> 0:18:11.624
<v Speaker 2>actually said on the my sorry, I have to do

0:18:11.704 --> 0:18:15.944
<v Speaker 2>the obligatory new song. So he grabbed the guitar, he

0:18:15.984 --> 0:18:17.584
<v Speaker 2>sang a few lines, did and even sing the whole song,

0:18:17.624 --> 0:18:19.544
<v Speaker 2>and then immediately went in too, let me entertain you.

0:18:19.864 --> 0:18:22.104
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there's a way to do it. I think that Katie,

0:18:22.464 --> 0:18:24.264
<v Speaker 1>that's what she should do. She should come out with raw,

0:18:24.384 --> 0:18:27.184
<v Speaker 1>break the Fourth Wall, and then Teenage Dream, and then

0:18:27.224 --> 0:18:29.344
<v Speaker 1>she plays Woman's World, which I'm gonna say, I know

0:18:29.424 --> 0:18:31.104
<v Speaker 1>all the words to again, someone get me new ticket,

0:18:31.104 --> 0:18:33.944
<v Speaker 1>I will sing along, and then she ends with Firework.

0:18:34.184 --> 0:18:36.104
<v Speaker 1>That's how she does it, Like, that's what she should be.

0:18:36.024 --> 0:18:38.864
<v Speaker 2>Doing, and I think she should just be really appreciative

0:18:39.304 --> 0:18:42.064
<v Speaker 2>of this opportunity. So I have a fun fact for

0:18:42.144 --> 0:18:44.184
<v Speaker 2>people who don't watch sports. Also, I'm sorry if I

0:18:44.224 --> 0:18:46.304
<v Speaker 2>get this wrong because I'm also new at the sporting world.

0:18:46.584 --> 0:18:51.144
<v Speaker 2>But in AFL, like each player has their own song,

0:18:51.944 --> 0:18:54.104
<v Speaker 2>so really so if they kick a goal, they'll play

0:18:54.144 --> 0:18:56.024
<v Speaker 2>a song of their choice. That's air song.

0:18:56.504 --> 0:18:57.984
<v Speaker 1>So many of them.

0:18:57.944 --> 0:18:59.184
<v Speaker 2>Have Katie Perry bangers.

0:18:59.424 --> 0:19:00.904
<v Speaker 1>Really, that's great.

0:19:00.944 --> 0:19:01.544
<v Speaker 2>It isn't cure.

0:19:01.624 --> 0:19:04.584
<v Speaker 1>See she deserves to be there. That is a truly

0:19:04.584 --> 0:19:06.024
<v Speaker 1>fun fact. Emily vote. We'll done.
