1 00:00:08,234 --> 00:00:10,914 Speaker 1: You're listening to a MoMA Mia podcast. 2 00:00:16,233 --> 00:00:18,793 Speaker 2: Hello, and welcome to MoMA Mia out Loud. It's what 3 00:00:18,834 --> 00:00:21,954 Speaker 2: women are actually talking about on Monday, the sixteenth of March. 4 00:00:22,594 --> 00:00:23,954 Speaker 2: I'm Holly Wayne Wright. 5 00:00:23,914 --> 00:00:26,514 Speaker 1: And I'm Claire Stevens and I'm Amelia Lastov. 6 00:00:26,554 --> 00:00:28,394 Speaker 2: And the reason I sound a bit scattered is because 7 00:00:28,394 --> 00:00:32,114 Speaker 2: I'm very excited. Regular out louders well know, I'm a 8 00:00:32,153 --> 00:00:35,634 Speaker 2: big Oscars fan. I used to work in celebrity magazines. 9 00:00:35,674 --> 00:00:37,274 Speaker 2: This was like the biggest day of the year. I 10 00:00:37,274 --> 00:00:40,394 Speaker 2: love my movies, I love my stars. I am amped. 11 00:00:40,473 --> 00:00:42,314 Speaker 2: And today we're going to give you all the gossip. 12 00:00:42,314 --> 00:00:43,634 Speaker 2: We're going to give you all the things that grabbed 13 00:00:43,634 --> 00:00:46,434 Speaker 2: our attention, the frocks we loved. We're not running through, 14 00:00:46,513 --> 00:00:49,034 Speaker 2: like blow by blow, everything that happened and whether or 15 00:00:49,034 --> 00:00:50,873 Speaker 2: not it should have done. We're just going to give 16 00:00:50,873 --> 00:00:53,513 Speaker 2: you what grabbed our attention. And there will be a 17 00:00:53,513 --> 00:00:54,994 Speaker 2: few spoilers in here too. 18 00:00:55,194 --> 00:00:59,993 Speaker 3: Plus the Louis Theroux documentary everyone's talking about and our 19 00:01:00,234 --> 00:01:03,874 Speaker 3: quite stringent attempts to find a few glimmers of hope 20 00:01:03,914 --> 00:01:04,354 Speaker 3: within it. 21 00:01:04,674 --> 00:01:08,234 Speaker 1: And I want to talk about reply only. Frank maybe 22 00:01:08,314 --> 00:01:09,594 Speaker 1: you are one of them. 23 00:01:09,634 --> 00:01:12,834 Speaker 2: But first in case you missed it. In Batshit Theories 24 00:01:12,874 --> 00:01:14,834 Speaker 2: of the Week. In case you missed it, there's a 25 00:01:14,874 --> 00:01:18,114 Speaker 2: whole thing going on about if you put a picture 26 00:01:18,554 --> 00:01:22,074 Speaker 2: of Timothy's challomay, we we'll talk more about our chalo 27 00:01:22,114 --> 00:01:25,354 Speaker 2: maay later next to a picture of Henry Cavell. Do 28 00:01:25,394 --> 00:01:30,274 Speaker 2: we all know who he is? Handsome British, Yeah, British, 29 00:01:30,474 --> 00:01:36,034 Speaker 2: British movie star who you find more attractive, says more 30 00:01:36,074 --> 00:01:38,674 Speaker 2: about you than your taste. Goes this theory, let me 31 00:01:38,794 --> 00:01:41,914 Speaker 2: just explain and then we'll unpack why it may or 32 00:01:41,994 --> 00:01:45,434 Speaker 2: may indeed be nonsense. In the interests of bursting my bubble, 33 00:01:45,474 --> 00:01:48,194 Speaker 2: I follow a magazine called ev on Instagram. We've talked 34 00:01:48,194 --> 00:01:51,394 Speaker 2: about Evie on this show. It's like in America, it's 35 00:01:51,394 --> 00:01:55,034 Speaker 2: like the conservative Cosmo. So it's kind of sells itself 36 00:01:55,034 --> 00:01:58,154 Speaker 2: as like a woman's lifestyle site, magazine whatever. But it's 37 00:01:58,194 --> 00:02:01,074 Speaker 2: all very like how to please your husband, don't be promiscuous, 38 00:02:01,114 --> 00:02:02,714 Speaker 2: get married quickly, all that kind of stuff. 39 00:02:02,794 --> 00:02:02,994 Speaker 3: Right. 40 00:02:03,394 --> 00:02:06,634 Speaker 2: They've had this post up about challow may and Cavell 41 00:02:07,354 --> 00:02:11,234 Speaker 2: says in the latest Internet discourse some women on x 42 00:02:11,353 --> 00:02:14,913 Speaker 2: this is on Twitter claiming Henry Cavell isn't that attractive. 43 00:02:14,994 --> 00:02:18,674 Speaker 2: But there may actually be scientific explanation for why some 44 00:02:18,754 --> 00:02:23,434 Speaker 2: women say they prefer Timothy Chalomaye instead. Research suggests that 45 00:02:23,514 --> 00:02:27,314 Speaker 2: women on hormonal birth control tend to be more drawn 46 00:02:27,354 --> 00:02:31,994 Speaker 2: to men with softer, more feminine features. Coincidence, asks Evie, 47 00:02:32,034 --> 00:02:35,474 Speaker 2: because they're just asking questions, Amelia. This has been jumped 48 00:02:35,514 --> 00:02:39,074 Speaker 2: on by lots of conservative commentators. Lauren Chen sent a 49 00:02:39,114 --> 00:02:42,314 Speaker 2: tweet completely viral, and then Elon Musk of course shared it, 50 00:02:42,594 --> 00:02:45,354 Speaker 2: where she said, thinking Timothy Shalomay is more attractive than 51 00:02:45,394 --> 00:02:47,633 Speaker 2: Henry Cavell is what happens when you've been on birth 52 00:02:47,674 --> 00:02:48,714 Speaker 2: control for ten years. 53 00:02:49,034 --> 00:02:52,434 Speaker 1: Elon Musk actually reposted it with the bulls eye emoji. 54 00:02:52,554 --> 00:02:54,754 Speaker 1: And I just want to know who does he think 55 00:02:54,794 --> 00:02:55,474 Speaker 1: he looks like? 56 00:02:55,994 --> 00:03:00,114 Speaker 2: He looks like Henry cavill And also we know he 57 00:03:00,154 --> 00:03:03,794 Speaker 2: doesn't approve of birth control because he has twenty million children. 58 00:03:04,314 --> 00:03:07,274 Speaker 2: But I'm not a scientist, but Clare Stephens certainly is 59 00:03:07,314 --> 00:03:10,394 Speaker 2: oh definitely, is it true that being on the pill 60 00:03:10,834 --> 00:03:13,674 Speaker 2: or on DHRT, when it comes to it, is going 61 00:03:13,754 --> 00:03:15,674 Speaker 2: to make you fancy, shallow, made more than cavil. 62 00:03:16,034 --> 00:03:19,154 Speaker 3: No, And this is an example, This is an example 63 00:03:19,474 --> 00:03:21,793 Speaker 3: of misinformation on the Internet, which we'll probably get to 64 00:03:21,794 --> 00:03:26,274 Speaker 3: you in a later segment. It is so frustrating to 65 00:03:26,394 --> 00:03:29,154 Speaker 3: look at this. It's wrong on so many levels. I'll 66 00:03:29,154 --> 00:03:32,074 Speaker 3: start with a scientific level and then we'll move to logic. 67 00:03:32,594 --> 00:03:36,194 Speaker 2: So what if you find both of them attractive? Yeah, 68 00:03:36,234 --> 00:03:39,074 Speaker 2: what does that say the state of your hor I think. 69 00:03:38,834 --> 00:03:40,674 Speaker 3: You're a hoe. 70 00:03:41,354 --> 00:03:42,714 Speaker 2: Ev Magazine would. 71 00:03:44,034 --> 00:03:46,674 Speaker 3: Elon Musk would say you're a hoe. So that was 72 00:03:46,754 --> 00:03:50,514 Speaker 3: based on a twenty twelve study. What Evie magazine was citing. 73 00:03:50,594 --> 00:03:52,474 Speaker 3: That's quite a long time twenty twelve, and there was 74 00:03:52,514 --> 00:03:55,594 Speaker 3: another big study in two thousand and eight. You won't 75 00:03:55,594 --> 00:03:58,194 Speaker 3: believe it, but there's been studies since, and you won't 76 00:03:58,194 --> 00:04:00,674 Speaker 3: believe it. But the study since have actually showed that 77 00:04:00,674 --> 00:04:04,634 Speaker 3: that was a complete non fabrication. So study in twenty 78 00:04:04,794 --> 00:04:08,514 Speaker 3: nineteen found no evidence that women using oral contraceptives had 79 00:04:08,554 --> 00:04:12,954 Speaker 3: weaker preferences for male facial masculinity than did women not 80 00:04:13,114 --> 00:04:16,313 Speaker 3: using oral contraceptives. And then in twenty twenty five, that 81 00:04:16,433 --> 00:04:19,433 Speaker 3: was just last year. You may remember, there was a 82 00:04:19,514 --> 00:04:22,834 Speaker 3: randomized control trial that was like a double blind study. 83 00:04:22,914 --> 00:04:27,234 Speaker 3: That is the golden standard of any kind of scientific research. 84 00:04:27,513 --> 00:04:29,873 Speaker 3: So it meant that they randomly assigned some women to 85 00:04:29,914 --> 00:04:32,153 Speaker 3: be on the pill, randomly assigned some women to be 86 00:04:32,193 --> 00:04:35,713 Speaker 3: on placebo, and then they did this experiment no statistically 87 00:04:35,714 --> 00:04:40,113 Speaker 3: significant effect of oral contraceptives on preferences. 88 00:04:39,553 --> 00:04:43,273 Speaker 2: For facial hoping to not get pregnant. 89 00:04:42,193 --> 00:04:47,034 Speaker 3: I know, right, it's like, oh, sorry, we didn't think 90 00:04:47,034 --> 00:04:51,833 Speaker 3: about that ethical consideration. But the fact that an article 91 00:04:51,953 --> 00:04:56,954 Speaker 3: can be written that acts like it's citing scientific research 92 00:04:56,993 --> 00:05:02,154 Speaker 3: and then ignores the last fourteen years of that scientific 93 00:05:02,193 --> 00:05:05,833 Speaker 3: research is so infuriating. So there's that aspect, But then 94 00:05:05,873 --> 00:05:10,073 Speaker 3: there's the logic. So that Evey Magazine article tries to 95 00:05:10,154 --> 00:05:12,753 Speaker 3: argue at the end that the big problem here, the 96 00:05:12,794 --> 00:05:14,794 Speaker 3: worry for women is that what's going to happen is 97 00:05:14,834 --> 00:05:17,234 Speaker 3: you're going to be on hormone or birth control, and 98 00:05:17,313 --> 00:05:19,914 Speaker 3: then you're going to marry someone and then you're going 99 00:05:19,993 --> 00:05:20,234 Speaker 3: to go. 100 00:05:20,234 --> 00:05:23,634 Speaker 1: Off to Michael and you'll want Henry Carol. 101 00:05:24,154 --> 00:05:27,594 Speaker 3: And it's like, you know what else might actually affect 102 00:05:27,993 --> 00:05:30,753 Speaker 3: what women get tied to for their entire lives having 103 00:05:30,794 --> 00:05:33,634 Speaker 3: a baby with that man. Hence birth control, Like do 104 00:05:33,674 --> 00:05:36,834 Speaker 3: you know what I mean? Like before birth control, women, 105 00:05:37,553 --> 00:05:42,034 Speaker 3: the freedom that birth control has offered women outweighs. 106 00:05:41,474 --> 00:05:42,873 Speaker 2: That to choose a mate. 107 00:05:43,073 --> 00:05:45,873 Speaker 3: Yes, even if that were true. The other thing that 108 00:05:45,873 --> 00:05:48,234 Speaker 3: doesn't make sense is that at the beginning of that 109 00:05:48,354 --> 00:05:50,914 Speaker 3: article they write that it's easy to watch a James 110 00:05:50,953 --> 00:05:53,794 Speaker 3: Dean movie and wonder why there aren't men like that anymore. 111 00:05:54,113 --> 00:05:56,514 Speaker 3: We sat in a cinema a few weeks ago and 112 00:05:56,594 --> 00:06:01,313 Speaker 3: watched women salivate over Jacob Alordi no bless him, who's 113 00:06:01,354 --> 00:06:04,954 Speaker 3: pretty bloody. Similar, there's Adam Driver, there's Paul mescal And 114 00:06:04,993 --> 00:06:07,313 Speaker 3: then they have a line about how a tea teen 115 00:06:07,313 --> 00:06:11,753 Speaker 3: age girl is more likely to lust over Lil Huddy 116 00:06:12,274 --> 00:06:15,393 Speaker 3: than Jacob a lord who is little Huddy. And also 117 00:06:15,753 --> 00:06:18,393 Speaker 3: teenage girls shouldn't be the consideration here because they're less 118 00:06:18,393 --> 00:06:20,113 Speaker 3: likely to be your birth control than women in the twenties. 119 00:06:21,794 --> 00:06:24,593 Speaker 2: All my fun I just want to come with the 120 00:06:24,633 --> 00:06:26,794 Speaker 2: side of culture war, and I was enjoying it. 121 00:06:27,234 --> 00:06:30,273 Speaker 3: Also, I like, I'm not on birth control, but I 122 00:06:30,313 --> 00:06:32,393 Speaker 3: am pregnant, so that might effect. 123 00:06:35,794 --> 00:06:37,433 Speaker 2: But you're a Shallama aunt. 124 00:06:37,594 --> 00:06:40,553 Speaker 3: Yeah, but birth control, no birth control, pregnancy, no pregnancy. 125 00:06:40,633 --> 00:06:43,713 Speaker 3: I go Shalla May over Henry Cavill. I think Henry 126 00:06:43,753 --> 00:06:44,914 Speaker 3: Cavill looks a little bit more. 127 00:06:46,674 --> 00:06:52,713 Speaker 2: That's science. That is science. So we have been watching 128 00:06:52,753 --> 00:06:57,074 Speaker 2: the Oscars on and off all morning, all lunchtime. I 129 00:06:57,113 --> 00:07:00,474 Speaker 2: heard some whoops around the office, not many. It wasn't 130 00:07:00,513 --> 00:07:03,594 Speaker 2: the most exciting of ceremonies they were. 131 00:07:03,834 --> 00:07:04,794 Speaker 3: It had its moments. 132 00:07:04,794 --> 00:07:07,273 Speaker 2: I had its moments. We're going to be talking about 133 00:07:07,313 --> 00:07:10,393 Speaker 2: made people whoop in a moment. But we can't talk 134 00:07:10,434 --> 00:07:13,794 Speaker 2: about the Oscars without talking about dresses. Now, Mia is 135 00:07:13,834 --> 00:07:18,274 Speaker 2: going to bring her forensic some may say judgmental view 136 00:07:18,474 --> 00:07:22,353 Speaker 2: on fashion and the Red Carpet tore tomorrow's episode in detail, 137 00:07:22,393 --> 00:07:24,393 Speaker 2: as well as the after party outfits, which are always 138 00:07:24,434 --> 00:07:27,874 Speaker 2: more interesting these days. But friends, we have to do 139 00:07:28,114 --> 00:07:30,953 Speaker 2: a who you like best on the Red Carpet? Amelia, 140 00:07:31,514 --> 00:07:32,034 Speaker 2: I got two. 141 00:07:32,074 --> 00:07:34,913 Speaker 1: I got a man and a woman. Best dressed woman 142 00:07:35,274 --> 00:07:39,514 Speaker 1: Rose r Rose Berner Indior Anne Hathaway went for a 143 00:07:39,554 --> 00:07:42,234 Speaker 1: similar look. They were both kind of wearing some might 144 00:07:42,314 --> 00:07:47,074 Speaker 1: say wallpaper adjacent designs, but they both looked beautiful. But 145 00:07:47,234 --> 00:07:50,033 Speaker 1: Rose looks like a movie star, and by that I 146 00:07:50,114 --> 00:07:54,114 Speaker 1: mean she looks like an exceptionally attractive person who was 147 00:07:54,154 --> 00:07:55,114 Speaker 1: having a lot of fun. 148 00:07:55,514 --> 00:07:59,434 Speaker 3: And interestingly I made the same observation, but I feel 149 00:07:59,434 --> 00:08:02,674 Speaker 3: like Rose Burns was like the modern version of that 150 00:08:02,794 --> 00:08:05,673 Speaker 3: dress and the jewelry and that kind of thing, whereas 151 00:08:05,714 --> 00:08:07,234 Speaker 3: Anne Hathaway's was like the old. 152 00:08:07,194 --> 00:08:09,434 Speaker 1: Well she got. She had like elbow length gloves on. 153 00:08:09,554 --> 00:08:09,874 Speaker 4: Yes. 154 00:08:09,994 --> 00:08:10,314 Speaker 3: Yes. 155 00:08:10,354 --> 00:08:15,034 Speaker 1: And my best dressed man is Pedro Pascal, who did 156 00:08:15,074 --> 00:08:18,033 Speaker 1: not have his mustache. I think there was some gasps 157 00:08:18,074 --> 00:08:20,634 Speaker 1: of dismay in the office when he showed up on 158 00:08:20,674 --> 00:08:22,834 Speaker 1: the red carpet clean shaven. No one's ever seen him 159 00:08:22,834 --> 00:08:23,833 Speaker 1: aout the mustache before. 160 00:08:23,874 --> 00:08:24,994 Speaker 2: What you just heard me do. 161 00:08:25,114 --> 00:08:27,713 Speaker 1: Yeah, the mustache made its way onto Leo's face. 162 00:08:28,074 --> 00:08:30,354 Speaker 2: It did crawl across the red carpet clan. 163 00:08:32,874 --> 00:08:34,354 Speaker 3: I quite liked Leo. 164 00:08:35,914 --> 00:08:39,714 Speaker 1: I did not. I like clean shaven Pedro. He was 165 00:08:39,754 --> 00:08:43,314 Speaker 1: in white channel, he had this big silk and feather 166 00:08:43,394 --> 00:08:45,994 Speaker 1: brooch on. And what I love about him is that 167 00:08:46,034 --> 00:08:48,194 Speaker 1: he always looked so well moisturized. 168 00:08:48,634 --> 00:08:51,994 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right. I thought the boys, though, did you 169 00:08:52,034 --> 00:08:53,834 Speaker 2: notice they were a lot of them were either all 170 00:08:53,874 --> 00:08:56,834 Speaker 2: in white like Chalamaie like fool full white, or all 171 00:08:56,874 --> 00:08:58,514 Speaker 2: in black so like black timeless. 172 00:08:58,594 --> 00:08:59,154 Speaker 1: That's true. 173 00:08:59,194 --> 00:09:03,354 Speaker 2: But I think our Jacob classic three piece suit with 174 00:09:03,434 --> 00:09:05,234 Speaker 2: the waistcoat, I mean, I know, it's hard to look 175 00:09:05,234 --> 00:09:08,274 Speaker 2: bad when you're seventeen feet to Anie took his mom. 176 00:09:08,754 --> 00:09:10,354 Speaker 3: He did, he did take you. 177 00:09:11,114 --> 00:09:12,914 Speaker 1: You have a little bit of an issue there. 178 00:09:13,154 --> 00:09:16,314 Speaker 3: It's a deflection because who is dating people would find 179 00:09:16,354 --> 00:09:18,754 Speaker 3: a little bit problematic. So he takes his mom and 180 00:09:18,794 --> 00:09:20,394 Speaker 3: everyone's like, oh, taking his. 181 00:09:20,394 --> 00:09:21,714 Speaker 1: Mom because he's dating. 182 00:09:21,914 --> 00:09:23,874 Speaker 3: He's dating Olivia. 183 00:09:24,594 --> 00:09:26,274 Speaker 2: Olivia talked about this last week. 184 00:09:26,354 --> 00:09:29,954 Speaker 3: Yeah, Olivia Jade, who's who was involved in the college 185 00:09:29,954 --> 00:09:33,554 Speaker 3: admissions candle. I just think she's so beautiful. But to be. 186 00:09:33,554 --> 00:09:36,874 Speaker 2: Fair, the serious actors always take their moms. Leo took 187 00:09:36,914 --> 00:09:39,594 Speaker 2: his mom for years. Charala Maai used to take his mom. 188 00:09:39,634 --> 00:09:42,634 Speaker 2: He still doesn't walk with Kylie, like not really.

I'm going 194 00:09:56,674 --> 00:09:59,994 Speaker 3: to be boring and agree with Amelia that Rose Byrne 195 00:09:59,994 --> 00:10:03,994 Speaker 3: was absolutely best stressed. But I'll also mention I thought 196 00:10:04,074 --> 00:10:08,994 Speaker 3: Demie Moore's look was. 197 00:10:07,234 --> 00:10:09,674 Speaker 2: Too many feathers, many feathers. 198 00:10:09,794 --> 00:10:13,034 Speaker 1: I mean, our Nick was in feathers too. 199 00:10:12,914 --> 00:10:15,674 Speaker 2: And so was Tayana Taylor who I did think looked amazing, 200 00:10:15,714 --> 00:10:18,354 Speaker 2: and she's been she's from one battle after another, and 201 00:10:18,434 --> 00:10:21,834 Speaker 2: she has been absolutely hammering. The red carpet looks with 202 00:10:21,874 --> 00:10:24,794 Speaker 2: lots of really out sort of out there things, So 203 00:10:24,874 --> 00:10:27,834 Speaker 2: her in those feathers was actually quite yeah, well key 204 00:10:27,914 --> 00:10:29,514 Speaker 2: for her. It looked amazing. 205 00:10:30,154 --> 00:10:33,394 Speaker 3: The other one that, yes, needs it, need to mention 206 00:10:33,634 --> 00:10:37,594 Speaker 3: is Emma Stone looked that color, that fabric, Oh, that 207 00:10:37,634 --> 00:10:40,954 Speaker 3: looked absolutely beautiful. Louisverton a little capslee. 208 00:10:41,194 --> 00:10:43,754 Speaker 1: Emma Stone does not look like Emma Stone anymore. I 209 00:10:43,794 --> 00:10:46,514 Speaker 1: know you've borded me saying this. Bridget Dulaney wrote a 210 00:10:46,554 --> 00:10:48,394 Speaker 1: great piece in The Guardian a couple of days ago 211 00:10:48,514 --> 00:10:51,314 Speaker 1: about how movie stars used to just be like better 212 00:10:51,354 --> 00:10:53,434 Speaker 1: looking than the rest of us, and we could aspire 213 00:10:53,514 --> 00:10:55,314 Speaker 1: to that and we liked looking at them, and it 214 00:10:55,354 --> 00:10:58,514 Speaker 1: was all very uncomplicated. And now movie stars just look 215 00:10:58,674 --> 00:11:02,594 Speaker 1: like AI generated cyborgs. And I have to include a 216 00:11:02,674 --> 00:11:04,434 Speaker 1: number of the people who walk the carpet tonight in 217 00:11:04,474 --> 00:11:05,114 Speaker 1: that category. 218 00:11:05,394 --> 00:11:07,994 Speaker 2: We discussed this all the time. I thought she looked amazing, 219 00:11:08,274 --> 00:11:10,394 Speaker 2: very very thin, but that's her thing. 220 00:11:10,474 --> 00:11:12,634 Speaker 3: But I thought she has the dress, probably the only 221 00:11:12,634 --> 00:11:14,114 Speaker 3: person in the world who could wear that dress. Can 222 00:11:14,194 --> 00:11:18,874 Speaker 3: we just quickly? I hated Timmy's look. I hated the sunglasses. 223 00:11:19,034 --> 00:11:21,394 Speaker 3: I hated the boots. They were like hospital boot. 224 00:11:21,514 --> 00:11:22,114 Speaker 2: Leave the boy aler. 225 00:11:22,514 --> 00:11:25,314 Speaker 1: It was like a double breasted white suit, which I 226 00:11:25,354 --> 00:11:29,234 Speaker 1: think so yes, suits haven't been this controversial since Obama 227 00:11:29,274 --> 00:11:30,314 Speaker 1: wore a tan suit. 228 00:11:30,474 --> 00:11:34,034 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I have to award a high degree 229 00:11:34,114 --> 00:11:38,833 Speaker 2: of difficulty right for the very pregnant? Would me Masaku? 230 00:11:38,954 --> 00:11:41,114 Speaker 2: She is from Sinners, she played Annie and Sinners, the 231 00:11:41,114 --> 00:11:44,394 Speaker 2: heart of that movie. Amazing actress, she's about to have 232 00:11:44,434 --> 00:11:47,394 Speaker 2: a baby, and she was like, because Hailey Steinfeld, who's 233 00:11:47,434 --> 00:11:50,274 Speaker 2: also in Sinners, she is also heavily pregnant, and she 234 00:11:50,354 --> 00:11:53,394 Speaker 2: didn't go, but I think that one me was like, no, 235 00:11:53,594 --> 00:11:57,154 Speaker 2: I'm freaking going. And she wore this amazing Louis Vton 236 00:11:57,314 --> 00:11:59,953 Speaker 2: green sequince. But it is not easy to pull off 237 00:11:59,954 --> 00:12:01,714 Speaker 2: a red car and that would have been custom made 238 00:12:01,754 --> 00:12:05,234 Speaker 2: for her, and she looked freaking a million dollars. Anyway, 239 00:12:05,874 --> 00:12:07,914 Speaker 2: that's the Frocks, as we say, he is going to 240 00:12:07,954 --> 00:12:11,674 Speaker 2: do more on that tomorrow. But moving inside, Conan O'Brien 241 00:12:11,754 --> 00:12:15,354 Speaker 2: was hosting now he hosted last year, generally seemed to 242 00:12:15,354 --> 00:12:18,594 Speaker 2: be a pretty safe choice. In these polarizing times. And 243 00:12:18,674 --> 00:12:21,674 Speaker 2: remember America as a millionaires better than anyone half the 244 00:12:21,714 --> 00:12:24,194 Speaker 2: audience hate the other half of the audience. Are you 245 00:12:24,274 --> 00:12:26,594 Speaker 2: going to make jokes for one half of the audience 246 00:12:26,594 --> 00:12:29,714 Speaker 2: and not the other. He kind of played it very safe. 247 00:12:29,754 --> 00:12:32,034 Speaker 2: He did make an Epstein gag that is coming up 248 00:12:32,074 --> 00:12:35,074 Speaker 2: in this Here's a little collection from his opening monologue. 249 00:12:35,274 --> 00:12:38,594 Speaker 4: Great to be back hosting the Oscars.

Security is extremely tight tonight. I's got 252 00:12:47,834 --> 00:12:50,954 Speaker 4: to mention that. Yeah, I'm told there's concerns about attacks 253 00:12:50,954 --> 00:12:55,914 Speaker 4: from both the opera and ballet communities. They're just mad 254 00:12:55,954 --> 00:12:59,954 Speaker 4: you left out jazz. It's the first time since twenty twelve, 255 00:13:00,434 --> 00:13:03,714 Speaker 4: first time since twenty twelve that there are no British 256 00:13:03,754 --> 00:13:09,354 Speaker 4: actors nominated for Best Actor or Best Actress. Yeah, British 257 00:13:09,354 --> 00:13:13,074 Speaker 4: spokesperson said, yeah, well at least we arrest our pedophiles, 258 00:13:13,394 --> 00:13:14,834 Speaker 4: so we got that going. 259 00:13:16,474 --> 00:13:17,714 Speaker 1: We pay tribute. 260 00:13:17,394 --> 00:13:21,554 Speaker 4: Tonight, not just a film, but to the ideals of 261 00:13:21,634 --> 00:13:29,314 Speaker 4: global artistry, collaboration, patience, resilience and that rarest of qualities 262 00:13:29,354 --> 00:13:35,674 Speaker 4: today optimism.

There are a couple of good ones. 278 00:14:20,034 --> 00:14:22,354 Speaker 3: I'm glad that it only took a few seconds to 279 00:14:22,394 --> 00:14:25,234 Speaker 3: get the ballet upright joke out of the messing around 280 00:14:25,234 --> 00:14:25,634 Speaker 3: with that. 281 00:14:27,154 --> 00:14:28,314 Speaker 1: And it was nicely delivered. 282 00:14:28,394 --> 00:14:31,434 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's tricky because do you remember for a while 283 00:14:31,514 --> 00:14:34,194 Speaker 2: there the OSCARS was trying to be relevant with its hosts, 284 00:14:34,194 --> 00:14:36,154 Speaker 2: and there was that year when it was unhad the 285 00:14:36,154 --> 00:14:39,914 Speaker 2: way James Frank or whatever, like nobody wanted. 286 00:14:39,634 --> 00:14:40,114 Speaker 1: To do it. 287 00:14:40,114 --> 00:14:42,234 Speaker 2: It was ahead of its time that one, but it 288 00:14:42,394 --> 00:14:45,634 Speaker 2: became like a poison chalice. Nobody wanted that gig because 289 00:14:45,634 --> 00:14:48,354 Speaker 2: it's the most criticized blah blah. So now they've obviously 290 00:14:48,394 --> 00:14:50,954 Speaker 2: just gone, let's keep that. Billy Crystal did it for 291 00:14:51,034 --> 00:14:52,754 Speaker 2: like what seemed like a hundred years. 292 00:14:52,514 --> 00:14:56,274 Speaker 1: And he appeared on stage briefly tonight as well in 293 00:14:56,354 --> 00:14:59,794 Speaker 1: the immemorium section talking about Rob Reiner. But I just 294 00:14:59,914 --> 00:15:03,074 Speaker 1: wonder if in this sort of stripped back TikTok age, 295 00:15:03,394 --> 00:15:06,634 Speaker 1: someone trying as hard as cone and just falls flat. 296 00:15:07,634 --> 00:15:09,754 Speaker 2: And you know, like a lot of the Oscars does 297 00:15:09,794 --> 00:15:13,154 Speaker 2: feel like it's still nineteen eighty two, like the music, 298 00:15:13,874 --> 00:15:16,634 Speaker 2: like when people are coming on and off, the glamorous 299 00:15:16,714 --> 00:15:19,994 Speaker 2: Lady who leads everybody on and office's so weird. Now, 300 00:15:20,274 --> 00:15:22,034 Speaker 2: Emelia and I were talking about the set and how 301 00:15:22,034 --> 00:15:24,994 Speaker 2: it looked really dark and weird, and then I read 302 00:15:25,114 --> 00:15:27,754 Speaker 2: that according to Vanity Fair, the year's stage design is 303 00:15:27,754 --> 00:15:30,514 Speaker 2: meant to represent a calming garden courtyard. 304 00:15:30,714 --> 00:15:32,434 Speaker 1: It doesn't it look like a mausoleum. 305 00:15:33,394 --> 00:15:35,354 Speaker 3: And what's weird is that I feel like with the 306 00:15:35,354 --> 00:15:40,954 Speaker 3: red carpet, the official Oscars red carpet is very of 307 00:15:40,994 --> 00:15:43,074 Speaker 3: the moment. They've got a Millia to Oldenberg and she 308 00:15:43,154 --> 00:15:46,914 Speaker 3: does it and she's so funny, and sometimes that gets 309 00:15:46,914 --> 00:15:49,554 Speaker 3: criticized the idea of like influencers on the red carpet, 310 00:15:49,834 --> 00:15:52,354 Speaker 3: But they're funny and they bring out funny stuff in 311 00:15:52,554 --> 00:15:55,034 Speaker 3: the people they interview. But I agree, I think the 312 00:15:55,234 --> 00:15:57,994 Speaker 3: entire ceremony is too earnest. I think everyone's being too 313 00:15:57,994 --> 00:16:01,194 Speaker 3: earnest all the time. And I'm like, calm down, yeah, 314 00:16:01,274 --> 00:16:05,434 Speaker 3: the ice. I don't need you to. 315 00:16:04,034 --> 00:16:06,034 Speaker 2: To hand it over to Rock Nation, who do like 316 00:16:06,074 --> 00:16:08,514 Speaker 2: the super Bowl and they just need to be like, 317 00:16:08,794 --> 00:16:11,074 Speaker 2: what would you do with the Oscars because it's their 318 00:16:11,114 --> 00:16:13,514 Speaker 2: big night, right And I get it. If I worked 319 00:16:13,554 --> 00:16:16,034 Speaker 2: in that industry, it would be a big deal to 320 00:16:16,114 --> 00:16:18,834 Speaker 2: be there and all that stuff. But it just does feel, 321 00:16:18,914 --> 00:16:21,914 Speaker 2: as you said, Emelia, like it's from another time. Okay, 322 00:16:22,074 --> 00:16:24,834 Speaker 2: we have to get to the biggest upset of the 323 00:16:24,914 --> 00:16:26,794 Speaker 2: night if it's an upset, because we did kind of 324 00:16:26,794 --> 00:16:29,394 Speaker 2: predict it. But three months ago you would have thought 325 00:16:29,434 --> 00:16:32,994 Speaker 2: that chalamay, my little Timmy had a lock on this 326 00:16:33,594 --> 00:16:37,314 Speaker 2: Best Actor nomination and win. He was nominated last year 327 00:16:37,394 --> 00:16:40,074 Speaker 2: for the Bob Dylan Movie. At that point, he made 328 00:16:40,074 --> 00:16:42,034 Speaker 2: a big point about how much he wanted to win 329 00:16:42,114 --> 00:16:44,954 Speaker 2: it and how hard he's been working, and then on 330 00:16:44,994 --> 00:16:47,914 Speaker 2: the Mardi Supreme press tour he's been talking loads about 331 00:16:47,954 --> 00:16:50,154 Speaker 2: the quality of work he's been churning out. I think 332 00:16:50,154 --> 00:16:52,234 Speaker 2: he's been nominated three times in ten years, which is 333 00:16:52,514 --> 00:16:56,474 Speaker 2: a lot. He's only thirty. But he blew it and 334 00:16:56,514 --> 00:16:59,154 Speaker 2: it went to Michael B. Jordan, which is justice because, 335 00:16:59,154 --> 00:17:02,034 Speaker 2: as Emily Vernon pointed out on Friday's show, Michael B. 336 00:17:02,114 --> 00:17:04,793 Speaker 2: Jordan should really have got two awards because he played twins. 337 00:17:05,434 --> 00:17:09,914 Speaker 2: But do we think that the backlash in motion Ameilia. 338 00:17:09,674 --> 00:17:12,074 Speaker 1: The Charla May backlash is here? And I don't just 339 00:17:12,154 --> 00:17:14,274 Speaker 1: know that because you've been taking all the blue tech 340 00:17:14,314 --> 00:17:17,874 Speaker 1: off your Timmy posters around your desk today, Holly. I 341 00:17:17,914 --> 00:17:20,513 Speaker 1: think it started. I can pinpoint exactly when it started 342 00:17:20,794 --> 00:17:24,274 Speaker 1: when he and Kylie Jenner appeared on the Red Carpet 343 00:17:24,314 --> 00:17:28,154 Speaker 1: in those matching orange pleaver outfits. A few months ago 344 00:17:28,594 --> 00:17:31,354 Speaker 1: he was promoting My Supreme. He was wearing orange. But 345 00:17:31,554 --> 00:17:33,874 Speaker 1: I think it was just too much for everyone. It 346 00:17:33,954 --> 00:17:37,513 Speaker 1: was far too naff. From there on, he hasn't recovered 347 00:17:37,554 --> 00:17:39,234 Speaker 1: the ground. In fact, he's lost more with the opera 348 00:17:39,234 --> 00:17:41,394 Speaker 1: and ballet remarks There's an interesting article in The New 349 00:17:41,474 --> 00:17:45,554 Speaker 1: York Times today by Navine Kumar called Wasn't Timothday's Charla 350 00:17:45,594 --> 00:17:47,954 Speaker 1: May is supposed to be a new kind of leading man, 351 00:17:47,994 --> 00:17:49,994 Speaker 1: and I think her premise is really interesting. She makes 352 00:17:50,034 --> 00:17:52,794 Speaker 1: the point that in twenty seventeen, when he burst onto 353 00:17:52,794 --> 00:17:56,313 Speaker 1: the scene, he was in Ladybird, Greta Gowig's movie. He 354 00:17:56,434 --> 00:17:58,553 Speaker 1: was in Call Me by Your Name, there was a 355 00:17:58,594 --> 00:18:01,554 Speaker 1: gay love story. He wore a backless red holter neck 356 00:18:01,634 --> 00:18:03,714 Speaker 1: on the red carpet. We thought he was kind of 357 00:18:03,794 --> 00:18:05,314 Speaker 1: post heterosexual man. 358 00:18:07,234 --> 00:18:09,474 Speaker 2: EV Magazine thinks that's sure. 359 00:18:09,994 --> 00:18:12,834 Speaker 1: But now he's sort of been revealed to not be 360 00:18:13,114 --> 00:18:15,594 Speaker 1: what we all pinned on him or projected on to him. 361 00:18:15,594 --> 00:18:17,394 Speaker 1: And I think we're all just feeling like we were 362 00:18:17,394 --> 00:18:19,434 Speaker 1: sold a bill of goods. Do you think that's right? 363 00:18:20,074 --> 00:18:22,513 Speaker 2: I do? But I also I have to examine my 364 00:18:22,834 --> 00:18:24,914 Speaker 2: attitude about it because I think a lot of it's 365 00:18:24,954 --> 00:18:27,354 Speaker 2: to do with his choice of partner, right, and Kylie Jenner, 366 00:18:27,434 --> 00:18:30,034 Speaker 2: And I don't think that's fair, do you know what 367 00:18:30,114 --> 00:18:33,914 Speaker 2: I mean? Like, I think that our whether it's misogyny, 368 00:18:33,954 --> 00:18:37,513 Speaker 2: whether it's snobbery about Kylie Jenner and the kardashianness of 369 00:18:37,554 --> 00:18:40,954 Speaker 2: it all has rubbed off on him and tainted his brand. 370 00:18:41,434 --> 00:18:44,154 Speaker 2: And the truth of it is, he is incredibly good 371 00:18:44,194 --> 00:18:46,714 Speaker 2: at what he does. Like Marty Supreme, whether you particularly 372 00:18:46,834 --> 00:18:50,794 Speaker 2: like that movie or not, his performance is extraordinary, and 373 00:18:50,834 --> 00:18:52,594 Speaker 2: the same with the Bob Dylan movie and the same 374 00:18:52,594 --> 00:18:56,674 Speaker 2: with everything he does. So he's a great actor. And 375 00:18:56,714 --> 00:18:58,554 Speaker 2: I think that for a long time people were like, oh, 376 00:18:58,594 --> 00:19:00,474 Speaker 2: he knows how to promote a movie and open a movie. 377 00:19:00,514 --> 00:19:02,513 Speaker 2: That was the narrative when Marty Supreme came out, and 378 00:19:02,514 --> 00:19:05,114 Speaker 2: they were like, very few actors can open a movie 379 00:19:05,114 --> 00:19:06,634 Speaker 2: and take it to the top of the box office, 380 00:19:07,434 --> 00:19:09,914 Speaker 2: not gen z but he can. Him and Zende are 381 00:19:09,914 --> 00:19:13,914 Speaker 2: seen as the great saviors of youth cinema. And it's 382 00:19:14,034 --> 00:19:16,313 Speaker 2: like he went too hard, and then I think he 383 00:19:16,354 --> 00:19:19,353 Speaker 2: went too hard, and then the establishment went, yeah, but 384 00:19:19,394 --> 00:19:21,394 Speaker 2: you're not very Ardi, are you, because you're kind of 385 00:19:21,394 --> 00:19:23,874 Speaker 2: with the Kardashians now. And I wonder if there's just 386 00:19:24,474 --> 00:19:27,194 Speaker 2: a bit of old fashioned snobbery at play there, because 387 00:19:27,234 --> 00:19:30,114 Speaker 2: although we've all been gripping our pearls about him saying 388 00:19:30,114 --> 00:19:33,634 Speaker 2: what he said about opera or ballet, he wasn't wrong, 389 00:19:33,874 --> 00:19:35,994 Speaker 2: as in it's not like the average guy in the 390 00:19:35,994 --> 00:19:37,914 Speaker 2: street who's paying to go and see Sinners or Marti 391 00:19:37,954 --> 00:19:41,194 Speaker 2: Supreme is a massive opera ballet fan, but it's given 392 00:19:41,234 --> 00:19:44,914 Speaker 2: the establishment a really good reason to turn stobby on him. 393 00:19:45,074 --> 00:19:49,594 Speaker 3: I reckon he just has the Leonardo DiCaprio cz which 394 00:19:49,674 --> 00:19:52,074 Speaker 3: is he's going to be nominated over and over and 395 00:19:52,114 --> 00:19:54,074 Speaker 3: over again and he's going to lose over it. 396 00:19:54,914 --> 00:19:56,914 Speaker 1: Different to Leo, I was actually going to bring him 397 00:19:56,994 --> 00:19:59,434 Speaker 1: up because I think they're an interesting study. In contrast, 398 00:19:59,794 --> 00:20:03,474 Speaker 1: Leo dates Victoria's Secret Models famously. We kind of all 399 00:20:03,554 --> 00:20:05,634 Speaker 1: just make jokes about it, and it's become part of 400 00:20:05,634 --> 00:20:08,554 Speaker 1: his persona. But he gets cast in the Martins Corsese 401 00:20:08,714 --> 00:20:11,394 Speaker 1: films year after year. There's no sense of his credibility 402 00:20:11,474 --> 00:20:14,234 Speaker 1: being eroded because of his love life choices. Why is 403 00:20:14,274 --> 00:20:19,434 Speaker 1: it that we don't like Charalamae with Kylie Jenner, but 404 00:20:19,474 --> 00:20:23,714 Speaker 1: we forgive DiCaprio with his carousel of under twenty six. 405 00:20:23,714 --> 00:20:28,474 Speaker 3: Year olds because we dehumani because they do. Yeah, that's 406 00:20:28,554 --> 00:20:30,314 Speaker 3: exactly which is a little bit. 407 00:20:30,874 --> 00:20:33,033 Speaker 2: I don't think he I think that twenty six year 408 00:20:33,034 --> 00:20:35,674 Speaker 2: olds have damaged his reputation. I definitely do. I think 409 00:20:35,674 --> 00:20:38,073 Speaker 2: that I'm particularly among younger women. That's the only thing 410 00:20:38,114 --> 00:20:40,834 Speaker 2: they'd know about Leonardo DiCaprio is that he dates twenty 411 00:20:40,874 --> 00:20:43,234 Speaker 2: six year olds. I think there is a tarnish to 412 00:20:43,314 --> 00:20:45,274 Speaker 2: him from that he's seeing. There's a bit sad. 413 00:20:45,434 --> 00:20:48,474 Speaker 3: I reckon Timmy will have his moment. I don't think 414 00:20:48,514 --> 00:20:51,794 Speaker 3: this was his moment because I don't think he was 415 00:20:51,914 --> 00:20:54,914 Speaker 3: the best actor like him. Losing could have been. Yes, 416 00:20:55,074 --> 00:20:58,954 Speaker 3: the whole publicity train and how it got derailed, all 417 00:20:58,994 --> 00:21:01,114 Speaker 3: of that, But I do think Michael B. Jordan was 418 00:21:01,114 --> 00:21:02,033 Speaker 3: better and heved it. 419 00:21:02,114 --> 00:21:04,194 Speaker 2: You're right. I don't mean in any way for this 420 00:21:04,274 --> 00:21:06,954 Speaker 2: comp like for this Chalamagne nomination to make it sound 421 00:21:07,434 --> 00:21:10,273 Speaker 2: Michael B. Jordan's somehow Brad breathed this. Of course he didn't. 422 00:21:10,434 --> 00:21:14,073 Speaker 2: He absolutely deserved it. But it's just interesting how quickly 423 00:21:14,114 --> 00:21:17,714 Speaker 2: the narrative turned. It was very much schaalamey chalamey, chalomay, 424 00:21:18,114 --> 00:21:19,674 Speaker 2: and then it was very much oh no, no, no, 425 00:21:19,674 --> 00:21:21,954 Speaker 2: no no. You know. So it's I think that justice 426 00:21:21,954 --> 00:21:24,073 Speaker 2: has been served in that as much as you can 427 00:21:24,114 --> 00:21:27,194 Speaker 2: have a conpept performances and anything like Michael B. Jordan's amazing, 428 00:21:27,754 --> 00:21:30,513 Speaker 2: but the backlash of Chala May is very interesting and 429 00:21:30,714 --> 00:21:31,954 Speaker 2: very Kardashi encoded. 430 00:21:31,994 --> 00:21:35,434 Speaker 3: I think, Yes, I saw a behind the scenes ish 431 00:21:35,554 --> 00:21:40,114 Speaker 3: clip of Timothy seeing your sister and so she comes 432 00:21:40,154 --> 00:21:43,474 Speaker 3: Ballerina his Ballerina's sister comes and says hi to him 433 00:21:43,474 --> 00:21:46,314 Speaker 3: in the front row, and yeah, the interaction of doing 434 00:21:46,314 --> 00:21:48,954 Speaker 3: her Kylie's awkward, That's all I'll say. But I think 435 00:21:48,954 --> 00:21:50,434 Speaker 3: there's some awkwardness in the family. 436 00:21:51,034 --> 00:21:53,114 Speaker 2: What else did we love? Slashd not love. 437 00:21:53,194 --> 00:21:55,554 Speaker 3: What I loved from like a Shade and Freud perspective 438 00:21:56,034 --> 00:21:59,754 Speaker 3: was during the Sinner's performance I Lied to You, which 439 00:21:59,794 --> 00:22:04,314 Speaker 3: was bloody brilliant. There's a very talented balot dancer, mister Copen, Yes, 440 00:22:04,674 --> 00:22:07,674 Speaker 3: and Timmy's in the front row, and I thought that 441 00:22:07,714 --> 00:22:10,114 Speaker 3: was a very big reminder that it's like ballets in 442 00:22:10,154 --> 00:22:10,914 Speaker 3: your face, buddy. 443 00:22:10,954 --> 00:22:15,754 Speaker 1: And I loved seeing the Bridesmaid's cast get back together 444 00:22:15,914 --> 00:22:19,474 Speaker 1: again and they were so funny when they walked on stage, 445 00:22:19,474 --> 00:22:22,114 Speaker 1: they were all doing that cheesy pointing into the audience 446 00:22:22,154 --> 00:22:24,273 Speaker 1: that politicians do. That was a real highlight. 447 00:22:24,434 --> 00:22:26,474 Speaker 2: And it wasn't that like a glimpse in a way 448 00:22:26,634 --> 00:22:29,754 Speaker 2: of what the hosting gig could be. And I think 449 00:22:29,794 --> 00:22:31,794 Speaker 2: a lot of people don't want that job is the truth. 450 00:22:31,874 --> 00:22:35,714 Speaker 2: But like those women standing on stage they introduced two awards, 451 00:22:35,754 --> 00:22:39,313 Speaker 2: they were funnier and fresher and smarter in those moments. 452 00:22:39,354 --> 00:22:41,234 Speaker 2: The first one was this stick that they were pretending 453 00:22:41,234 --> 00:22:42,954 Speaker 2: they had notes from people in the crowd. It was 454 00:22:43,034 --> 00:22:46,354 Speaker 2: just very funny and they kept being like, you look 455 00:22:46,394 --> 00:22:48,634 Speaker 2: really beautiful, You've aged well, the things you've done to 456 00:22:48,674 --> 00:22:50,033 Speaker 2: your face are very tasteful. 457 00:22:50,794 --> 00:22:53,674 Speaker 1: Every one of those women is just the funniest personal 458 00:22:53,714 --> 00:22:54,674 Speaker 1: I know. 459 00:22:54,914 --> 00:22:56,474 Speaker 3: Give to that more of that? 460 00:22:56,594 --> 00:22:58,313 Speaker 1: Well, Tina and Amy? Do we need to go back 461 00:22:58,354 --> 00:22:59,634 Speaker 1: to Tina and Amy's true? 462 00:22:59,674 --> 00:23:02,554 Speaker 2: If that would be amazing? Who wouldn't want that? Anna 463 00:23:02,634 --> 00:23:06,634 Speaker 2: wind Tour without her glasses. I had to call Amelia 464 00:23:06,674 --> 00:23:12,754 Speaker 2: over computer because Anna Wintour and Anne Hathaway presented an 465 00:23:12,754 --> 00:23:17,074 Speaker 2: award obviously a nod to the whole promotion of Devil 466 00:23:17,074 --> 00:23:20,314 Speaker 2: Wears prior of too, and Anna was not wearing her 467 00:23:20,394 --> 00:23:23,114 Speaker 2: sunglasses for the first part of it, and I was thinking, 468 00:23:23,154 --> 00:23:24,394 Speaker 2: I don't know if I've even seen it. 469 00:23:25,194 --> 00:23:26,553 Speaker 1: She looked so uncomfortable. 470 00:23:26,634 --> 00:23:29,234 Speaker 3: It was an eyeball reveal and it was quiet. 471 00:23:29,994 --> 00:23:32,074 Speaker 2: And then she put them on and then she very 472 00:23:32,314 --> 00:23:34,033 Speaker 2: hilariously said thank you Emily. 473 00:23:35,594 --> 00:23:36,234 Speaker 3: That was great. 474 00:23:37,274 --> 00:23:40,994 Speaker 1: That was probably funnier than anything Condan said. I loved 475 00:23:41,034 --> 00:23:44,394 Speaker 1: Audumn girald Ar Kappor, who was the first woman and 476 00:23:44,474 --> 00:23:48,114 Speaker 1: first woman of color to win Cinematography. She stood up, 477 00:23:48,194 --> 00:23:52,194 Speaker 1: she looked so cool. She was wearing a shirt and tie. Holly, 478 00:23:52,274 --> 00:23:53,754 Speaker 1: what did you say about shirt? 479 00:23:53,914 --> 00:23:57,074 Speaker 2: I think that every like civilian who goes to the Oscars, 480 00:23:57,074 --> 00:23:58,794 Speaker 2: and there are a lot of them because they're riders 481 00:23:58,794 --> 00:24:01,154 Speaker 2: and their directors and they just don't look like movie stars, 482 00:24:01,474 --> 00:24:04,114 Speaker 2: should wear a shirt and tie because most women look 483 00:24:04,194 --> 00:24:06,593 Speaker 2: freaking awesome in a suit, and then you don't have 484 00:24:06,634 --> 00:24:08,754 Speaker 2: to worry about the fact you've got to stand next 485 00:24:08,794 --> 00:24:12,834 Speaker 2: to bloody roseburn in Emmstone.

So Louis 619 00:31:05,634 --> 00:31:09,194 Speaker 3: didn't get access to Tate because Andrew Tate wanted to 620 00:31:09,234 --> 00:31:12,874 Speaker 3: be paid, and then he ended up sending Louis a 621 00:31:12,914 --> 00:31:16,514 Speaker 3: graph of how googled he is compared to how googled 622 00:31:16,714 --> 00:31:20,754 Speaker 3: Louis is and saying haha, see I'm more relevant than you, 623 00:31:20,794 --> 00:31:22,794 Speaker 3: which it's like, maybe people know who Louis throw is 624 00:31:22,794 --> 00:31:24,714 Speaker 3: so they didn't need to google him.

I think, but. 646 00:32:30,434 --> 00:32:32,394 Speaker 1: Why do the women stay with these men? 647 00:32:32,594 --> 00:32:36,354 Speaker 3: Well, good question, Louis asked them. And what's interesting is 648 00:32:36,394 --> 00:32:40,634 Speaker 3: how quickly the men, very slowly back down from all 649 00:32:40,754 --> 00:32:44,274 Speaker 3: their proclamations as soon as the woman is next to them, 650 00:32:44,474 --> 00:32:48,994 Speaker 3: and in every instance the man then tries there's a 651 00:32:48,994 --> 00:32:50,874 Speaker 3: whole blow up because the man then tries to get 652 00:32:50,874 --> 00:32:53,154 Speaker 3: the woman to stop being on camera and stop talking 653 00:32:53,794 --> 00:32:55,714 Speaker 3: because they can tell that it's. 654 00:32:55,714 --> 00:32:58,914 Speaker 1: Because it's all basically kind of like a show that 655 00:32:58,914 --> 00:33:00,794 Speaker 1: they're putting on to make money exactly. 656 00:33:01,714 --> 00:33:05,194 Speaker 3: Louis since has done several interviews, and his takeaway is 657 00:33:05,314 --> 00:33:10,474 Speaker 3: very interesting and matches my own, which is that despite 658 00:33:10,554 --> 00:33:13,954 Speaker 3: how sickening these views are and how shocking these men are, 659 00:33:14,794 --> 00:33:18,354 Speaker 3: there are a few tiny little snippets of hope to 660 00:33:18,434 --> 00:33:22,634 Speaker 3: be taken from the documentary. Holly, you watched the documentary 661 00:33:22,634 --> 00:33:25,194 Speaker 3: with Brent, I did? What did you take away from it? 662 00:33:25,314 --> 00:33:27,714 Speaker 2: Well, one of the things very early on, because obviously 663 00:33:27,754 --> 00:33:30,634 Speaker 2: I know about this world because of my job and 664 00:33:30,754 --> 00:33:32,874 Speaker 2: I live on the internet stuff. Brent doesn't really know 665 00:33:32,914 --> 00:33:35,554 Speaker 2: about this world, you know, he's a gen X man 666 00:33:35,594 --> 00:33:38,234 Speaker 2: who doesn't really have I'm always trying to because we 667 00:33:38,274 --> 00:33:40,194 Speaker 2: have a teenage son. I'm always trying to be like, 668 00:33:40,274 --> 00:33:43,194 Speaker 2: you need to get across it. And his view, like Amelia's, 669 00:33:43,394 --> 00:33:44,794 Speaker 2: is yuck, no. 670 00:33:44,874 --> 00:33:46,834 Speaker 3: Thanks, leave me alone. 671 00:33:47,114 --> 00:33:49,114 Speaker 2: But I made him watch it. I sat him down 672 00:33:49,114 --> 00:33:50,714 Speaker 2: as I were watching it. That's the same thing I 673 00:33:50,754 --> 00:33:52,914 Speaker 2: did with adolescence. I said, I don't care. I want 674 00:33:52,914 --> 00:33:55,074 Speaker 2: to hear about it watching it. He made it through 675 00:33:55,074 --> 00:33:57,154 Speaker 2: one of the adolescence, but he didn't make it through 676 00:33:57,154 --> 00:33:59,954 Speaker 2: all of Louis. And very quickly he said, and he's 677 00:33:59,994 --> 00:34:01,154 Speaker 2: just right, they're just salesman. 678 00:34:01,234 --> 00:34:03,394 Speaker 1: And then I can go and watch is It Cake together? 679 00:34:06,474 --> 00:34:07,074 Speaker 1: Brent would love. 680 00:34:08,674 --> 00:34:10,993 Speaker 2: Very quickly, he said, they're just salesman, and they it 681 00:34:11,114 --> 00:34:14,154 Speaker 2: is very apparent, very quickly that they are. So you know, 682 00:34:14,274 --> 00:34:16,274 Speaker 2: we've already covered the fact that they're all selling something. 683 00:34:16,314 --> 00:34:19,194 Speaker 2: They're all selling like my Krypto scheme, my investment tips, 684 00:34:19,234 --> 00:34:23,634 Speaker 2: my workout plan, and they've just mastered the new economy, 685 00:34:23,674 --> 00:34:25,674 Speaker 2: which is that you use social media for that, you 686 00:34:25,794 --> 00:34:28,194 Speaker 2: use YouTube for that. You make your content more and 687 00:34:28,234 --> 00:34:31,714 Speaker 2: more and more outrageous. To gain the algorithm, the content 688 00:34:31,834 --> 00:34:36,434 Speaker 2: has to be absolutely shocking. They say the most outrageous things, 689 00:34:36,434 --> 00:34:39,434 Speaker 2: but few of them seem to actually believe or stand 690 00:34:39,434 --> 00:34:42,594 Speaker 2: by very much of what they say. They believe when challenged. 691 00:34:42,954 --> 00:34:45,794 Speaker 2: So it's a difficult watch because you have to listen 692 00:34:45,834 --> 00:34:48,594 Speaker 2: to this awfulness. And there is a point in it 693 00:34:48,634 --> 00:34:51,114 Speaker 2: where it does take this dark turn where Louie's out 694 00:34:51,154 --> 00:34:53,714 Speaker 2: with them on a night where Tiki Toki or whatever 695 00:34:53,714 --> 00:34:57,154 Speaker 2: we're supposed to call him, basically sets his goons on 696 00:34:57,754 --> 00:35:01,754 Speaker 2: young men who they've lured to spots with a gay 697 00:35:01,874 --> 00:35:04,873 Speaker 2: dating app, and they're like, we're catching pedophiles. Like it 698 00:35:04,914 --> 00:35:08,674 Speaker 2: gets really grim. There's a so caught on camera when 699 00:35:08,674 --> 00:35:11,234 Speaker 2: it spirals into anti semitism and stuff, there is no 700 00:35:11,354 --> 00:35:15,714 Speaker 2: question it gets very scary. But the guys themselves are 701 00:35:15,794 --> 00:35:18,794 Speaker 2: not scary. They are like I just found every one 702 00:35:18,834 --> 00:35:21,714 Speaker 2: of them, and so did. Brent like to be sad 703 00:35:21,794 --> 00:35:25,114 Speaker 2: and pathetic, but I do want to pick a little bit. 704 00:35:25,154 --> 00:35:27,034 Speaker 2: I mean, I know that you worship the ground that 705 00:35:27,074 --> 00:35:29,954 Speaker 2: Louis throw walks on. You always have. I do question, 706 00:35:29,994 --> 00:35:31,634 Speaker 2: and I'm saying a bit of this commentary whether his 707 00:35:32,394 --> 00:35:37,034 Speaker 2: documentary style, which has always been I stand back, I record. 708 00:35:37,074 --> 00:35:39,634 Speaker 2: I'm kind of there, and I'm kind of I'm in it, 709 00:35:39,754 --> 00:35:41,954 Speaker 2: so I am the content, but I'm a bit separate. 710 00:35:41,994 --> 00:35:44,674 Speaker 2: I'm not here to depend it gone. So it is, 711 00:35:45,314 --> 00:35:47,674 Speaker 2: and I don't know if it works in this modern 712 00:35:47,714 --> 00:35:50,674 Speaker 2: world because every single one of these guys uses him 713 00:35:50,674 --> 00:35:54,154 Speaker 2: for content. They live stream his interviews, they get their 714 00:35:54,194 --> 00:35:56,913 Speaker 2: audiences to feed them questions they should ask him, They 715 00:35:56,954 --> 00:35:59,154 Speaker 2: mock him, they bully him. I mean, that's not you know. 716 00:35:59,354 --> 00:36:02,154 Speaker 2: I think Louis through can handle that. And towards the 717 00:36:02,314 --> 00:36:05,754 Speaker 2: end HS Tiki Taki's mother points this out to Louis. 718 00:36:05,794 --> 00:36:07,874 Speaker 2: She says, you're using my for content. 719 00:36:08,194 --> 00:36:09,473 Speaker 3: So you're making money. 720 00:36:09,554 --> 00:36:11,634 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you're making money from my son, and so 721 00:36:11,714 --> 00:36:12,873 Speaker 2: he's going to do the same to you. 722 00:36:13,114 --> 00:36:14,434 Speaker 1: Sorry, his mom's involved. 723 00:36:15,034 --> 00:36:16,754 Speaker 2: Well, this is one of the things that, obviously as 724 00:36:16,754 --> 00:36:19,154 Speaker 2: a mum, got me quite upset. He says. Earlier in 725 00:36:19,194 --> 00:36:22,114 Speaker 2: the piece HS Tiki TALKI that my mom hates all 726 00:36:22,154 --> 00:36:24,394 Speaker 2: the things I say. She's a feminist and she doesn't 727 00:36:24,434 --> 00:36:27,634 Speaker 2: like racism and stuff. And then she's in it later 728 00:36:27,674 --> 00:36:29,393 Speaker 2: on and she's like, no, she doesn't like it, but 729 00:36:29,434 --> 00:36:31,634 Speaker 2: she still defends him to the hill because he's her boy. 730 00:36:32,314 --> 00:36:34,634 Speaker 2: At one point Tiki TALKI turns to his mom and says, 731 00:36:34,634 --> 00:36:36,873 Speaker 2: but mum, you don't Most women aren't like you, mum. 732 00:36:36,914 --> 00:36:39,554 Speaker 2: Most women are thick. They're really, really thick. They're not 733 00:36:39,674 --> 00:36:44,274 Speaker 2: like you. And it's just anyway. But I do think 734 00:36:44,354 --> 00:36:47,234 Speaker 2: there is a world in which Louis Throu's he's all 735 00:36:47,314 --> 00:36:49,474 Speaker 2: you know, that wasn't happening when he was embedded with 736 00:36:49,554 --> 00:36:52,634 Speaker 2: the Westboro Baptist Church, when he was interviewed in Trailing 737 00:36:52,634 --> 00:36:55,994 Speaker 2: White supremacy in the American South, he wasn't the story 738 00:36:55,994 --> 00:36:57,714 Speaker 2: in the same way that he is now. He wasn't 739 00:36:58,114 --> 00:37:00,433 Speaker 2: being exploited about it in the same way as now. 740 00:37:00,474 --> 00:37:03,674 Speaker 2: And it's I just think it's changed that game. And 741 00:37:03,954 --> 00:37:05,594 Speaker 2: I don't know how helpful it is. 742 00:37:05,954 --> 00:37:10,393 Speaker 3: I think though, that is the power of documentary and 743 00:37:10,434 --> 00:37:14,274 Speaker 3: the power of him, and the fact that he has 744 00:37:14,394 --> 00:37:17,394 Speaker 3: always just given people enough rope and he's not going 745 00:37:17,434 --> 00:37:23,514 Speaker 3: in and outwardly condemning them or outwardly even you know, 746 00:37:23,594 --> 00:37:28,433 Speaker 3: being super adversarial. I think that is actually stronger because 747 00:37:28,474 --> 00:37:30,554 Speaker 3: it allows us to really see what's beneath it. 748 00:37:30,594 --> 00:37:31,474 Speaker 1: And when we saw what was. 749 00:37:31,474 --> 00:37:36,274 Speaker 3: Beneath it, it wasn't as scary as I think they backed down. Really, 750 00:37:36,714 --> 00:37:37,594 Speaker 3: I don't know what you mean. 751 00:37:37,634 --> 00:37:41,714 Speaker 2: But also his strength used to be that he walks 752 00:37:41,714 --> 00:37:44,234 Speaker 2: them into a trap where they'll say something outrageous or 753 00:37:44,274 --> 00:37:46,473 Speaker 2: let an inside thought be an outside thought. But that's 754 00:37:46,794 --> 00:37:48,913 Speaker 2: what these guys do all day, every day. It's just 755 00:37:49,034 --> 00:37:52,194 Speaker 2: say awful stuff. Louis doesn't have to tempt them to 756 00:37:52,194 --> 00:37:54,634 Speaker 2: say anything awful. He doesn't have to trap them. In fact, 757 00:37:54,994 --> 00:37:57,554 Speaker 2: he has to become complicit. There's a really disturbed One 758 00:37:57,594 --> 00:37:59,954 Speaker 2: of the most disturbing parts for me is when he 759 00:38:00,074 --> 00:38:03,594 Speaker 2: goes on the podcast of one of the guys I 760 00:38:03,594 --> 00:38:07,393 Speaker 2: think it's Myron Gaines, who's a really disturbing character. One 761 00:38:07,434 --> 00:38:09,994 Speaker 2: of the things he does on his podcast YouTube stream 762 00:38:10,394 --> 00:38:12,794 Speaker 2: is he gets women, many of whom are like content 763 00:38:12,834 --> 00:38:14,714 Speaker 2: creator or only fans content creators, to come on the 764 00:38:14,754 --> 00:38:17,514 Speaker 2: podcast and he humiliates them. So he'll ask them general 765 00:38:17,554 --> 00:38:19,074 Speaker 2: knowledge questions that he knows they're not going to be 766 00:38:19,074 --> 00:38:21,634 Speaker 2: the answer to, and then he'll mock them, talk about 767 00:38:21,634 --> 00:38:24,834 Speaker 2: their body count, just be generally gross and spread lots 768 00:38:24,834 --> 00:38:27,914 Speaker 2: of misinformation, and Louis has to be on that show 769 00:38:28,114 --> 00:38:30,674 Speaker 2: and he can't really. I just I don't know. 770 00:38:31,634 --> 00:38:35,074 Speaker 1: It's not just platforming, it's kind of like spurring them on, 771 00:38:35,234 --> 00:38:37,834 Speaker 1: like giving them content. Is that the critique? 772 00:38:38,274 --> 00:38:41,794 Speaker 2: I just found that very I felt like he was 773 00:38:42,234 --> 00:38:44,593 Speaker 2: I don't want to patronize through he's, you know, master 774 00:38:44,674 --> 00:38:47,474 Speaker 2: of his art, but I think these guys are playing 775 00:38:47,514 --> 00:38:48,594 Speaker 2: a different game to him. 776 00:38:48,954 --> 00:38:51,234 Speaker 3: But I think that he is a great lens to 777 00:38:51,314 --> 00:38:53,514 Speaker 3: see that because I think that the game they're playing 778 00:38:53,994 --> 00:38:55,074 Speaker 3: is the Donald Trump game? 779 00:38:55,314 --> 00:38:55,953 Speaker 2: Oh very much. 780 00:38:56,514 --> 00:38:59,553 Speaker 3: Ask me a question, and what I'll do is I'll 781 00:38:59,554 --> 00:39:02,433 Speaker 3: bring up your biggest vulnerability and I'll make you feel 782 00:39:02,474 --> 00:39:06,873 Speaker 3: embarrassed and so on that podcast when Louie's on it, 783 00:39:06,874 --> 00:39:09,554 Speaker 3: I think him being there was excellent because I didn't 784 00:39:09,554 --> 00:39:12,234 Speaker 3: know that this is law in the manisphere. I would 785 00:39:12,234 --> 00:39:14,354 Speaker 3: love to know if you've heard this, Amelia, did you 786 00:39:14,514 --> 00:39:18,154 Speaker 3: know that? Apparently if you've slept with more people than 787 00:39:18,154 --> 00:39:22,074 Speaker 3: your husband, then it's very scientific. But your body hangs 788 00:39:22,154 --> 00:39:25,594 Speaker 3: on to the genes of the other men you've had 789 00:39:25,754 --> 00:39:29,074 Speaker 3: heard and so when you have a baby, that's why 790 00:39:29,274 --> 00:39:31,114 Speaker 3: your baby can look like your ex. 791 00:39:31,234 --> 00:39:35,234 Speaker 1: Because your body is hanging onto the genetic material. That 792 00:39:35,354 --> 00:39:35,953 Speaker 1: sounds legit. 793 00:39:36,194 --> 00:39:36,594 Speaker 3: Yeah, And. 794 00:39:38,794 --> 00:39:40,634 Speaker 2: Yet it's the women on this show who are dumb 795 00:39:40,674 --> 00:39:43,274 Speaker 2: according to him. According to Marine Gaines, he's like, these 796 00:39:43,314 --> 00:39:45,754 Speaker 2: women don't know what the capital of Bulgaria is and 797 00:39:45,834 --> 00:39:48,513 Speaker 2: yet over here we've got to the DNA of every 798 00:39:48,514 --> 00:39:49,474 Speaker 2: man we've anyway. 799 00:39:49,834 --> 00:39:53,433 Speaker 3: But Louis's reaction to that is because Louis laughs out 800 00:39:53,434 --> 00:39:56,913 Speaker 3: loud and he says, this is the misinformation, like this 801 00:39:57,034 --> 00:39:58,513 Speaker 3: is hell, but is that good? 802 00:39:58,834 --> 00:40:01,513 Speaker 1: Like now that we're talking about this because he drew 803 00:40:01,514 --> 00:40:04,154 Speaker 1: our attention to it. I don't know if that's like good. 804 00:40:04,634 --> 00:40:08,674 Speaker 3: I think being able to laugh about it puts it 805 00:40:08,714 --> 00:40:11,914 Speaker 3: in a different context to how. 806 00:40:13,594 --> 00:40:16,714 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, I as I say. In some ways, 807 00:40:16,714 --> 00:40:19,194 Speaker 2: I found this much less scary than I thought, because 808 00:40:19,274 --> 00:40:22,634 Speaker 2: they do all appear to be just fasarts, you know, 809 00:40:22,794 --> 00:40:24,953 Speaker 2: just just empty salesmen, like the equivalent of the guy 810 00:40:25,074 --> 00:40:26,634 Speaker 2: used to come and try and sell you a used 811 00:40:26,674 --> 00:40:29,954 Speaker 2: car or whatever. And they don't care at all about 812 00:40:29,954 --> 00:40:32,154 Speaker 2: the ideology. None of these guys seem to care even 813 00:40:32,154 --> 00:40:34,393 Speaker 2: a little bit about the ideology they're peddling. But the 814 00:40:34,394 --> 00:40:37,234 Speaker 2: problem is their followers probably do buy into it. And 815 00:40:37,234 --> 00:40:39,634 Speaker 2: that was confronting. But then the other thing was is 816 00:40:39,674 --> 00:40:41,554 Speaker 2: I was telling Amelia about it this morning, and I 817 00:40:41,594 --> 00:40:44,714 Speaker 2: was saying, all these guys are all so unseerious. They 818 00:40:44,714 --> 00:40:47,154 Speaker 2: can't stand by a single thing they said At the NDHS. 819 00:40:47,194 --> 00:40:50,594 Speaker 2: Tickie Talkie is saying, yeah, I said, I hate Jews, 820 00:40:50,914 --> 00:40:53,074 Speaker 2: but I don't, like, I'm not anti Semitic. I just 821 00:40:53,074 --> 00:40:56,154 Speaker 2: say that, and I say I hate gay people, but hey, 822 00:40:56,274 --> 00:40:58,594 Speaker 2: that guy over there, he's gazed. But like, they can't 823 00:40:58,634 --> 00:41:00,754 Speaker 2: stand by a single thing they're not serious people. And 824 00:41:00,794 --> 00:41:02,714 Speaker 2: I said that to Melia and she said. 825 00:41:02,834 --> 00:41:05,274 Speaker 1: No, one's serious anymore. And it got me thinking about 826 00:41:05,314 --> 00:41:06,993 Speaker 1: the fact that I remember when in the early days 827 00:41:06,994 --> 00:41:10,354 Speaker 1: of Twitter everyone had in their bios rts do not 828 00:41:10,514 --> 00:41:13,794 Speaker 1: equal endorsements. Retweets do not equal endorsements. The idea was 829 00:41:13,874 --> 00:41:16,914 Speaker 1: that if you posted something that someone else said posted, 830 00:41:16,994 --> 00:41:18,953 Speaker 1: you weren't saying you agreed with it. You just thought 831 00:41:18,994 --> 00:41:21,194 Speaker 1: it was important to get that idea into the circulation. 832 00:41:21,314 --> 00:41:23,834 Speaker 1: For whatever reason. It was newsworthy, it was provocative, it 833 00:41:23,874 --> 00:41:27,553 Speaker 1: was interesting. But I think the issue now is that 834 00:41:27,674 --> 00:41:32,474 Speaker 1: we are being led and influenced and governed by people 835 00:41:32,514 --> 00:41:35,394 Speaker 1: who don't believe what they're peddling and are just saying 836 00:41:35,434 --> 00:41:38,834 Speaker 1: it to get attention. But the line between just saying 837 00:41:38,874 --> 00:41:42,234 Speaker 1: it and living it has gotten completely blurred. 838 00:41:42,714 --> 00:41:46,834 Speaker 3: Agree. Agree, And that's exactly what Louis has said in 839 00:41:46,834 --> 00:41:51,194 Speaker 3: interviews since that that line is really really unclear, and 840 00:41:51,234 --> 00:41:55,554 Speaker 3: that these ideas have been around. You could recite what 841 00:41:55,594 --> 00:41:58,674 Speaker 3: these men say. It's been around for decades and decades, 842 00:41:59,154 --> 00:42:01,953 Speaker 3: but they were in like pick up artist books where 843 00:42:01,994 --> 00:42:05,114 Speaker 3: maybe some ice man and all that. Yes, however, many 844 00:42:05,154 --> 00:42:08,274 Speaker 3: people would read them. The problem now is that the 845 00:42:08,274 --> 00:42:11,033 Speaker 3: more radical you are, and the more extreme you are, 846 00:42:11,354 --> 00:42:13,514 Speaker 3: and the more offensive you are, the more attention, the 847 00:42:13,514 --> 00:42:14,433 Speaker 3: more attention you get. 848 00:42:14,594 --> 00:42:16,314 Speaker 2: And it doesn't really matter in a way if you 849 00:42:16,354 --> 00:42:19,593 Speaker 2: don't believe theti Semitic bullshit you're spouting, if it's all 850 00:42:19,674 --> 00:42:22,274 Speaker 2: out there and getting shared and disseminated. 851 00:42:21,834 --> 00:42:26,354 Speaker 3: Exactly, and so basically Lewis's point that he said in 852 00:42:26,394 --> 00:42:30,674 Speaker 3: these interviews is that it's really a question of policy 853 00:42:30,914 --> 00:42:33,754 Speaker 3: and of algorithms, which is interesting because Australia is trying 854 00:42:33,794 --> 00:42:37,194 Speaker 3: to do that and I kind of think, I don't 855 00:42:37,234 --> 00:42:37,954 Speaker 3: know if it's working. 856 00:42:37,994 --> 00:42:39,314 Speaker 2: I bet a lot of people who are listening to 857 00:42:39,354 --> 00:42:41,714 Speaker 2: this are like, I've got a son, Should I watch it? 858 00:42:41,714 --> 00:42:42,794 Speaker 2: Should I watch it with them? 859 00:42:42,914 --> 00:42:43,274 Speaker 1: Whatever? 860 00:42:43,474 --> 00:42:45,594 Speaker 2: I have a son who's in this bull's eye. All 861 00:42:45,634 --> 00:42:47,953 Speaker 2: the people who came up to these guys, by the way, 862 00:42:47,994 --> 00:42:50,913 Speaker 2: because they're quite big celebrities in their world, were young, 863 00:42:50,994 --> 00:42:53,314 Speaker 2: mostly young. Lots of young boys and some young men 864 00:42:53,514 --> 00:42:57,433 Speaker 2: really like young, like twelve like young come up and 865 00:42:57,434 --> 00:42:59,234 Speaker 2: they all want their picture taker work them, and they 866 00:42:59,314 --> 00:43:02,114 Speaker 2: all want them to do various in cell signs and stuff. 867 00:43:02,674 --> 00:43:04,794 Speaker 3: There's no forty year old men who are like, hey, 868 00:43:04,954 --> 00:43:06,914 Speaker 3: just tiktoki, here's my son like that. 869 00:43:09,034 --> 00:43:12,274 Speaker 2: But it did give me some good jumping off points 870 00:43:12,274 --> 00:43:15,154 Speaker 2: for conversations with my son about it, and one of 871 00:43:15,194 --> 00:43:17,433 Speaker 2: them was very much about, how have you noticed that 872 00:43:17,474 --> 00:43:20,234 Speaker 2: all these guys are in order to inflate because they're 873 00:43:20,274 --> 00:43:22,234 Speaker 2: basically praying on young men who feel like they've got 874 00:43:22,274 --> 00:43:25,834 Speaker 2: no economic future in various ways. Is there anyone who's 875 00:43:25,874 --> 00:43:27,913 Speaker 2: telling you they can blow you up by putting other 876 00:43:27,914 --> 00:43:30,393 Speaker 2: people down? That should always be a red flag. But 877 00:43:31,074 --> 00:43:34,194 Speaker 2: I think that if you're not familiar with this world, 878 00:43:34,794 --> 00:43:38,394 Speaker 2: it is a really informative watch. If you've got kids 879 00:43:38,434 --> 00:43:40,554 Speaker 2: who are swimming in this world, or indeed, if you 880 00:43:40,594 --> 00:43:43,114 Speaker 2: want to understand what Tyson on Maps is consuming in 881 00:43:43,154 --> 00:43:45,834 Speaker 2: his spare time. I think he's probably got some money 882 00:43:45,834 --> 00:43:47,874 Speaker 2: invested in hs tiki Talki's. 883 00:43:47,594 --> 00:43:52,954 Speaker 3: Financial, definitely, definitely, And he I think is a testament 884 00:43:52,994 --> 00:43:56,393 Speaker 3: to the fact that people really do recite these views. Yeah, 885 00:43:56,394 --> 00:43:58,354 Speaker 3: he's actually a little bit old for the demo, The 886 00:43:58,594 --> 00:44:02,674 Speaker 3: Bloody Tyson, I do reckon. What Louie was very good 887 00:44:02,674 --> 00:44:05,594 Speaker 3: at exposing was that at the underbelly of all of 888 00:44:05,594 --> 00:44:10,033 Speaker 3: this is selling stuff to teenagers. And so you say, 889 00:44:10,034 --> 00:44:13,433 Speaker 3: Holly that your flag is for your son is going 890 00:44:13,514 --> 00:44:15,834 Speaker 3: to be If they're trying to put other people down. 891 00:44:16,034 --> 00:44:20,194 Speaker 3: My flag, yeah, my flag is always are they selling 892 00:44:20,194 --> 00:44:23,074 Speaker 3: you something? If someone's telling you a really extreme thing 893 00:44:23,674 --> 00:44:28,554 Speaker 3: and then they're saying and subscribe to my finance app 894 00:44:28,794 --> 00:44:31,913 Speaker 3: or by my course, then don't freaking well it like, 895 00:44:32,074 --> 00:44:33,674 Speaker 3: I don't believe what they're saying. They're just trying to 896 00:44:33,674 --> 00:44:34,434 Speaker 3: sell you shit. 897 00:44:34,274 --> 00:44:36,154 Speaker 2: I know. But everyone on the internet is trying to 898 00:44:36,194 --> 00:44:38,834 Speaker 2: sell you. Actually, oh god. 899 00:44:38,994 --> 00:44:41,714 Speaker 3: It's really anyway. The internet is the problem anyway. 900 00:44:42,394 --> 00:44:44,674 Speaker 2: Claire's right, there are some lolls. So if you're not 901 00:44:44,674 --> 00:44:47,074 Speaker 2: worried about the end of the world, just laugh at 902 00:44:47,114 --> 00:44:49,433 Speaker 2: these silly men. Silly silly little men. 903 00:44:51,114 --> 00:44:55,114 Speaker 1: After the break, do you have a reply only friend? 904 00:44:55,434 --> 00:45:06,433 Speaker 1: Or are you a reply only friend? The comedian Tig 905 00:45:06,474 --> 00:45:10,913 Speaker 1: Nataro was on the Best People podcast recently. This is 906 00:45:10,954 --> 00:45:14,354 Speaker 1: hosted by a news anchor called Nicole Wallace, and she 907 00:45:14,474 --> 00:45:17,554 Speaker 1: said something about friendship which really struck a chord on 908 00:45:17,594 --> 00:45:20,834 Speaker 1: the Internet. She was talking about her friendship with Cheryl Hines, 909 00:45:20,874 --> 00:45:22,993 Speaker 1: who was an actor who was in Cobe Your Enthusiasm. 910 00:45:23,034 --> 00:45:26,114 Speaker 1: She played Larry David's wife and then ex wife. She 911 00:45:26,274 --> 00:45:28,954 Speaker 1: happens to be married to RFK Junior, who is a 912 00:45:28,994 --> 00:45:31,594 Speaker 1: Trump administration official. But this is not going to be 913 00:45:31,634 --> 00:45:35,194 Speaker 1: a discussion about politics. The nature of Cheryl and Tig's 914 00:45:35,234 --> 00:45:37,594 Speaker 1: fallout they were very good friends, they are no longer 915 00:45:37,994 --> 00:45:43,394 Speaker 1: was political. But what Tiggs said on this podcast about 916 00:45:43,514 --> 00:45:46,154 Speaker 1: how they fell out, I think will resonate with a 917 00:45:46,194 --> 00:45:49,514 Speaker 1: lot of people. It certainly resonated with me. The Internet 918 00:45:49,594 --> 00:45:52,194 Speaker 1: is now calling the people that Tig describes in this 919 00:45:52,354 --> 00:45:55,554 Speaker 1: video reply only friends, and you'll see why. Let's take 920 00:45:55,594 --> 00:45:55,994 Speaker 1: a listen. 921 00:45:56,314 --> 00:46:01,433 Speaker 7: And she would respond very pleasantly, thanks lady, Oh this 922 00:46:01,554 --> 00:46:05,393 Speaker 7: means so much, and I love you and miss you 923 00:46:05,634 --> 00:46:09,634 Speaker 7: and all of that. When I realized one day she 924 00:46:09,714 --> 00:46:13,754 Speaker 7: doesn't ever reach out to me anymore. She's responds to me, 925 00:46:14,154 --> 00:46:18,114 Speaker 7: but she doesn't reach out to me, and I had 926 00:46:18,154 --> 00:46:22,634 Speaker 7: to kind of shake myself out of denial that, oh 927 00:46:22,754 --> 00:46:24,234 Speaker 7: she's she's gone. 928 00:46:24,714 --> 00:46:27,514 Speaker 1: So the term that the Internet is using to describe 929 00:46:27,514 --> 00:46:29,834 Speaker 1: this kind of person, this kind of friend, is a 930 00:46:29,874 --> 00:46:33,754 Speaker 1: reply only friend. And I got into a really interesting 931 00:46:33,794 --> 00:46:37,913 Speaker 1: conversation on Reddit about this where people were disagreeing about it. 932 00:46:37,954 --> 00:46:41,794 Speaker 1: So a lot of people said that reply only friends 933 00:46:42,234 --> 00:46:43,913 Speaker 1: are just something you've got to deal with. As you 934 00:46:43,954 --> 00:46:46,634 Speaker 1: get older, like you learn that there are people who 935 00:46:46,674 --> 00:46:48,314 Speaker 1: are just not going to put in the effort and 936 00:46:48,394 --> 00:46:50,474 Speaker 1: you just have to decide whether or not you're okay 937 00:46:50,514 --> 00:46:53,154 Speaker 1: with that. But then there were other people who were 938 00:46:53,194 --> 00:46:55,754 Speaker 1: saying that it's wrong to keep scoring this way, that 939 00:46:55,834 --> 00:46:57,994 Speaker 1: if you want to see someone and spend time with someone, 940 00:46:57,994 --> 00:47:00,634 Speaker 1: that you should do that friendship is not about tallies. 941 00:47:00,754 --> 00:47:03,393 Speaker 1: It's not about figuring out who's putting in more work 942 00:47:03,434 --> 00:47:06,074 Speaker 1: at any given time. And then there was another really 943 00:47:06,114 --> 00:47:08,434 Speaker 1: interesting point that I had a thought about in defense 944 00:47:08,474 --> 00:47:10,913 Speaker 1: of the reply only friend that said that taking that 945 00:47:11,034 --> 00:47:14,074 Speaker 1: kind of initiative is about executive functioning, and that is 946 00:47:14,114 --> 00:47:16,913 Speaker 1: something that some people have more of than others, and 947 00:47:16,954 --> 00:47:19,433 Speaker 1: it's wrong to kind of judge or to think that 948 00:47:19,434 --> 00:47:22,394 Speaker 1: that means that someone doesn't want to be friends with you. Claire, 949 00:47:22,514 --> 00:47:25,913 Speaker 1: do you think that the reply only friend phenomenon is 950 00:47:26,034 --> 00:47:28,674 Speaker 1: real or justified or do you think that some of 951 00:47:28,714 --> 00:47:31,034 Speaker 1: these other sort of defenses of the reply only friend 952 00:47:31,074 --> 00:47:31,834 Speaker 1: do hold water. 953 00:47:32,434 --> 00:47:35,393 Speaker 3: I realized when when you sent this that I am 954 00:47:35,434 --> 00:47:37,314 Speaker 3: a reply only are you? 955 00:47:37,594 --> 00:47:37,674 Speaker 2: So? 956 00:47:37,914 --> 00:47:39,834 Speaker 3: I am? I am going to defend. 957 00:47:39,714 --> 00:47:42,834 Speaker 1: Okay in defensive reply only friends good because I am 958 00:47:42,874 --> 00:47:44,274 Speaker 1: not so I want to hear the defense. 959 00:47:44,394 --> 00:47:46,473 Speaker 2: I want to hear why you don't like them though, too, 960 00:47:46,594 --> 00:47:47,274 Speaker 2: before we do. 961 00:47:47,234 --> 00:47:49,393 Speaker 1: It, because I feel the same way as Tig. I 962 00:47:49,434 --> 00:47:52,234 Speaker 1: feel like sick of always putting in the effort, and 963 00:47:52,314 --> 00:47:54,514 Speaker 1: it's hard not to take it personally when they just 964 00:47:55,154 --> 00:47:59,354 Speaker 1: never meet me and they never take the initiative with me. 965 00:47:59,994 --> 00:48:03,473 Speaker 3: I'm trying to get better as I get older, and 966 00:48:03,634 --> 00:48:06,954 Speaker 3: as I maybe get my priorities right and realize that 967 00:48:07,554 --> 00:48:09,834 Speaker 3: relationships are the most important thing in life, like all 968 00:48:09,874 --> 00:48:14,354 Speaker 3: of that stuff, and also as people go through more shit, 969 00:48:14,794 --> 00:48:17,154 Speaker 3: Like I'm very aware that you can't just be the 970 00:48:17,194 --> 00:48:21,154 Speaker 3: reply only friend when people are going through hard stuff. 971 00:48:21,194 --> 00:48:24,954 Speaker 3: You need to be reaching out. But I will say 972 00:48:25,314 --> 00:48:28,154 Speaker 3: I really agree with the point that I don't think 973 00:48:28,194 --> 00:48:34,074 Speaker 3: it's about keeping tallies. I have friendship dynamics where, for 974 00:48:34,114 --> 00:48:36,474 Speaker 3: better or worse, it is understood that I'm the reply 975 00:48:36,554 --> 00:48:40,194 Speaker 3: only friend, and I'm the reply only friend, but like, 976 00:48:40,274 --> 00:48:43,474 Speaker 3: I will show up, so it's like I'll get the invite, 977 00:48:43,914 --> 00:48:45,834 Speaker 3: but I will show up, And a lot of people 978 00:48:45,834 --> 00:48:49,074 Speaker 3: don't show up to the invite, so that's quite reliable 979 00:48:50,034 --> 00:48:52,393 Speaker 3: that I will. I will reply, but. 980 00:48:52,514 --> 00:48:54,794 Speaker 2: I'm not going to get into the end less back 981 00:48:54,834 --> 00:48:55,514 Speaker 2: and forth. 982 00:48:55,274 --> 00:48:55,953 Speaker 1: About the thing. 983 00:48:56,354 --> 00:48:58,554 Speaker 3: No, and I'm not going to take the initiative of 984 00:48:58,634 --> 00:49:00,674 Speaker 3: like picking where to have don And this is the 985 00:49:00,714 --> 00:49:03,394 Speaker 3: other thing, the very intricacies. It's like, so we should 986 00:49:03,394 --> 00:49:05,994 Speaker 3: pick where we have dinner. I'm bad at that. I 987 00:49:06,074 --> 00:49:08,754 Speaker 3: will make a horrible, horrible decision. Everybody will have a 988 00:49:08,754 --> 00:49:12,074 Speaker 3: bad meal, whereas somebody else might enjoy food. 989 00:49:12,194 --> 00:49:15,714 Speaker 1: But Claire Devil's advocate, do you not think you could 990 00:49:15,754 --> 00:49:18,354 Speaker 1: be the one to say, let's have dinner, you pick 991 00:49:18,434 --> 00:49:19,594 Speaker 1: the restaurant. I'm bad at it. 992 00:49:19,754 --> 00:49:19,913 Speaker 2: Yeah. 993 00:49:19,994 --> 00:49:22,873 Speaker 3: See, that's really that is really good, And that is 994 00:49:22,914 --> 00:49:25,194 Speaker 3: what I'm trying to get better at, is the kind 995 00:49:25,234 --> 00:49:30,514 Speaker 3: of outreach and just letting people know I'm there. But 996 00:49:30,754 --> 00:49:34,514 Speaker 3: I'm very, very bad at the making plans and the 997 00:49:34,674 --> 00:49:37,594 Speaker 3: making a call and all of that. But I also 998 00:49:38,314 --> 00:49:41,794 Speaker 3: loved Tigg says later on, and it is a bit 999 00:49:41,834 --> 00:49:45,393 Speaker 3: specific to the nature of her friendship. Breakdown a line 1000 00:49:45,434 --> 00:49:48,514 Speaker 3: about people deserving a friend when they least deserve a far. 1001 00:49:48,394 --> 00:49:51,074 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I love this. When someone doesn't deserve a friend, 1002 00:49:51,274 --> 00:49:54,114 Speaker 1: that's when they need the friend the most. And I 1003 00:49:54,194 --> 00:49:58,473 Speaker 1: think that's relevant to this conversation because sometimes someone can 1004 00:49:58,554 --> 00:50:02,274 Speaker 1: really be going through something and they just cannot be 1005 00:50:02,314 --> 00:50:04,754 Speaker 1: there for you in the same way they cannot be 1006 00:50:04,834 --> 00:50:07,474 Speaker 1: reaching out to you. And I think that's a really 1007 00:50:07,754 --> 00:50:10,314 Speaker 1: valid point, and it's sort of a caveat to the 1008 00:50:10,354 --> 00:50:13,074 Speaker 1: idea that reply only friends and not worth the effort. 1009 00:50:13,434 --> 00:50:18,393 Speaker 3: That also goes for maybe times in people's lives where 1010 00:50:18,394 --> 00:50:23,393 Speaker 3: they've made horrible mistakes, where they've behaved badly, where they 1011 00:50:23,954 --> 00:50:28,874 Speaker 3: have said something stupid. And what I found interesting about 1012 00:50:28,994 --> 00:50:32,714 Speaker 3: Tig's particular experience is the difference between when somebody has 1013 00:50:33,354 --> 00:50:36,434 Speaker 3: maybe exposed a character flaw or a difference of opinion, 1014 00:50:36,554 --> 00:50:40,594 Speaker 3: and when that becomes a fundamental clash of values. And 1015 00:50:40,634 --> 00:50:44,754 Speaker 3: I think that that is kind of underlying the conversation 1016 00:50:44,914 --> 00:50:47,554 Speaker 3: she's having more whereas the reply only friend is a 1017 00:50:47,554 --> 00:50:50,954 Speaker 3: bit more of the surface level, Like the problem is 1018 00:50:50,994 --> 00:50:52,954 Speaker 3: whether there's a fundamental clash of values. 1019 00:50:52,994 --> 00:50:55,194 Speaker 2: I loved listen on last week's One of Me has 1020 00:50:55,394 --> 00:50:58,234 Speaker 2: Subscribe episodes. Last week, you, Amelia and Me have talked 1021 00:50:58,234 --> 00:51:01,314 Speaker 2: about friendship, including a bit of this conversation, but then 1022 00:51:01,354 --> 00:51:03,714 Speaker 2: about the things you need for friendship, and it was 1023 00:51:03,794 --> 00:51:07,274 Speaker 2: like proximity, live stage. 1024 00:51:07,554 --> 00:51:09,354 Speaker 3: Something energy with energy. 1025 00:51:09,474 --> 00:51:12,913 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I love this right. It did also make 1026 00:51:12,994 --> 00:51:15,393 Speaker 2: me wonder listening to that conversation in whether or not 1027 00:51:15,474 --> 00:51:18,554 Speaker 2: we all might have slightly different definitions of friendship and 1028 00:51:18,634 --> 00:51:22,394 Speaker 2: what we want from friendships because and like you, Amelia, 1029 00:51:22,634 --> 00:51:26,114 Speaker 2: my life experiences that I've spent many, many years now 1030 00:51:26,514 --> 00:51:29,114 Speaker 2: in no proximity to some of my favorite people. So 1031 00:51:29,234 --> 00:51:33,794 Speaker 2: I'm very comfortable with not being constantly in contact with people. 1032 00:51:33,874 --> 00:51:36,514 Speaker 2: Like I. If someone I haven't spoken to for a 1033 00:51:36,634 --> 00:51:39,114 Speaker 2: year messages me and says, let's have a drink, my 1034 00:51:39,194 --> 00:51:40,314 Speaker 2: first thought is not, where. 1035 00:51:40,194 --> 00:51:40,634 Speaker 1: Have you been? 1036 00:51:40,994 --> 00:51:42,873 Speaker 2: Like I'm like, oh, that'd be great. Yeah, you know 1037 00:51:42,874 --> 00:51:45,354 Speaker 2: what I mean, Like, I don't. I think there are 1038 00:51:45,434 --> 00:51:48,594 Speaker 2: levels of friendship that this isn't true for, but that 1039 00:51:48,914 --> 00:51:53,834 Speaker 2: in general, constant contact is not my definition of friendship, 1040 00:51:53,994 --> 00:51:57,234 Speaker 2: so I don't think therefore that's why this doesn't like 1041 00:51:57,274 --> 00:51:59,393 Speaker 2: reply only friends don't upset me so much because I'm 1042 00:51:59,474 --> 00:52:02,314 Speaker 2: kind of like, well, who's got time to be messaging 1043 00:52:02,354 --> 00:52:02,754 Speaker 2: every day? 1044 00:52:02,834 --> 00:52:05,594 Speaker 1: Like that's interesting. It sparked something in me that I 1045 00:52:05,674 --> 00:52:08,234 Speaker 1: have one friend who has that ladder but is not 1046 00:52:08,434 --> 00:52:10,953 Speaker 1: anywhere near where I am living right now. In fact, 1047 00:52:11,034 --> 00:52:14,714 Speaker 1: she's not in Australia, and she texted me this morning, 1048 00:52:14,794 --> 00:52:18,234 Speaker 1: are we still doing Underwire Bras, and if you'd scrolled 1049 00:52:18,274 --> 00:52:21,034 Speaker 1: up in our conversation, we probably spoke two weeks ago 1050 00:52:21,154 --> 00:52:25,473 Speaker 1: about something completely different. That kind of friendship where you 1051 00:52:25,514 --> 00:52:28,634 Speaker 1: can just go straight in with the random remark is 1052 00:52:28,714 --> 00:52:31,954 Speaker 1: how you keep a friendship alive over many years and 1053 00:52:31,994 --> 00:52:33,114 Speaker 1: a cross big distances. 1054 00:52:33,194 --> 00:52:34,754 Speaker 2: And you and me I had a really good chat 1055 00:52:34,794 --> 00:52:38,274 Speaker 2: about that, because the problem with the constant contact stuff 1056 00:52:38,394 --> 00:52:40,514 Speaker 2: is that sometimes you've got lots to talk about with 1057 00:52:40,634 --> 00:52:42,834 Speaker 2: somebody you know, so you might be in a period 1058 00:52:42,834 --> 00:52:46,034 Speaker 2: of high engagement, but then you might not. And to me, 1059 00:52:46,194 --> 00:52:48,674 Speaker 2: that doesn't mean that friendship is dying or in danger 1060 00:52:48,794 --> 00:52:52,154 Speaker 2: or anything. It's just a life thing. But the reach 1061 00:52:52,234 --> 00:52:56,314 Speaker 2: out is crucial. And you made the point in that conversation, 1062 00:52:56,634 --> 00:52:58,554 Speaker 2: which I thought is really true, that how are you? 1063 00:52:58,714 --> 00:52:59,794 Speaker 2: Is the worst question? 1064 00:52:59,954 --> 00:53:00,873 Speaker 1: Oh it's all And. 1065 00:53:00,954 --> 00:53:03,194 Speaker 2: I know I'm guilty of it often, right because I'll 1066 00:53:03,194 --> 00:53:06,393 Speaker 2: suddenly think I haven't talked to Betty in months and 1067 00:53:06,434 --> 00:53:08,554 Speaker 2: I've got two manch while I'm not doing anything. 1068 00:53:08,594 --> 00:53:11,274 Speaker 1: It's actually even worse if they're going through something. And 1069 00:53:11,514 --> 00:53:13,794 Speaker 1: if I'm going through something and I get the how. 1070 00:53:13,754 --> 00:53:16,873 Speaker 2: Are so I'll be like, hey, Betty, how are you? 1071 00:53:17,194 --> 00:53:19,194 Speaker 2: And like what kind of a question is that, And 1072 00:53:19,274 --> 00:53:22,674 Speaker 2: you guys talked about different openers. I think you're right. 1073 00:53:22,754 --> 00:53:25,274 Speaker 2: Like my friendships that have a lot of energy, even 1074 00:53:25,274 --> 00:53:27,954 Speaker 2: if we don't see each other very often, you just 1075 00:53:28,034 --> 00:53:31,314 Speaker 2: can kick off with any message. But my concern with 1076 00:53:31,434 --> 00:53:34,314 Speaker 2: us putting too many rules around how regular contact has 1077 00:53:34,354 --> 00:53:36,354 Speaker 2: to be and all those things is that we're always 1078 00:53:36,354 --> 00:53:38,913 Speaker 2: on the lookout for a slight, you know what I mean. 1079 00:53:39,274 --> 00:53:42,194 Speaker 2: So somebody reaches out to me and is like, did 1080 00:53:42,234 --> 00:53:46,194 Speaker 2: you see Chalamaig's ridiculous mustache at the oscars? And if 1081 00:53:46,234 --> 00:53:47,754 Speaker 2: I start off with or where have you been? 1082 00:53:47,874 --> 00:53:49,794 Speaker 1: I haven't heard from you in six months? Then that's 1083 00:53:49,834 --> 00:53:52,794 Speaker 1: not No, that's not nice either. I think it's about 1084 00:53:52,834 --> 00:53:58,514 Speaker 1: calibrating your check ins to a mutually agreed level. So, 1085 00:53:58,594 --> 00:54:00,754 Speaker 1: for instance, if that friend who texted me about the 1086 00:54:00,794 --> 00:54:03,754 Speaker 1: underwire Bras had texted me this morning, how are you? 1087 00:54:03,954 --> 00:54:04,154 Speaker 3: Yes? 1088 00:54:05,234 --> 00:54:08,194 Speaker 1: What to respond to this? Yes, but to the end 1089 00:54:08,194 --> 00:54:10,594 Speaker 1: of why Bras, I stopped everything? I texted her like, yeah, 1090 00:54:10,634 --> 00:54:13,114 Speaker 1: we are doing sorry to inform you. 1091 00:54:13,514 --> 00:54:16,073 Speaker 2: You're giving someone a gift of making a reply quite 1092 00:54:16,114 --> 00:54:18,873 Speaker 2: easy too, write yaues. It's like what are you eating 1093 00:54:18,994 --> 00:54:21,554 Speaker 2: right now? Or like I don't know whatever, like some 1094 00:54:21,554 --> 00:54:22,274 Speaker 2: more good questions. 1095 00:54:22,354 --> 00:54:25,554 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's another example because on the subscriber that you're 1096 00:54:25,554 --> 00:54:27,914 Speaker 1: talking about, Maya asked me how I have any friends, 1097 00:54:27,994 --> 00:54:30,154 Speaker 1: because I have moved around a lot, and I said, 1098 00:54:30,194 --> 00:54:32,554 Speaker 1: I actually think that I have a lot of friends. 1099 00:54:32,914 --> 00:54:37,473 Speaker 1: And one of my friends lives in California and we 1100 00:54:37,714 --> 00:54:40,594 Speaker 1: don't speak often. I've never lived in California. But I 1101 00:54:40,794 --> 00:54:43,194 Speaker 1: was proud of my check in with her. The other day. 1102 00:54:43,474 --> 00:54:47,234 Speaker 1: I asked her how many times she'd exercised that week 1103 00:54:47,274 --> 00:54:49,714 Speaker 1: or how many pilates classes she'd taken, because she'd told 1104 00:54:49,714 --> 00:54:52,154 Speaker 1: me in a previous conversation she was feeling a bit down. 1105 00:54:52,234 --> 00:54:54,674 Speaker 1: She wasn't getting to pilates. She wanted to get to 1106 00:54:54,714 --> 00:54:57,034 Speaker 1: Politi's more because it was making her feel better. And 1107 00:54:57,074 --> 00:54:59,474 Speaker 1: she literally wrote back with a number, and then I 1108 00:54:59,474 --> 00:55:02,354 Speaker 1: felt like we had this micro connection for the moment, 1109 00:55:02,394 --> 00:55:04,954 Speaker 1: which I think was really good. One idea that Mia 1110 00:55:05,034 --> 00:55:08,474 Speaker 1: has pioneered is she asks people. She's asked me for 1111 00:55:08,594 --> 00:55:12,074 Speaker 1: three words. So I went to Washington, DC recently on 1112 00:55:12,114 --> 00:55:14,474 Speaker 1: work and it was obviously, you know, a sort of 1113 00:55:14,634 --> 00:55:17,754 Speaker 1: dramatic experience in a number of ways, and Mia texted 1114 00:55:17,794 --> 00:55:21,993 Speaker 1: me while I was away three words for Washington, and 1115 00:55:22,234 --> 00:55:25,194 Speaker 1: it's really helpful to just be asked to nominate three 1116 00:55:25,234 --> 00:55:27,994 Speaker 1: words when you're having an experience where you are feeling 1117 00:55:28,034 --> 00:55:30,154 Speaker 1: a lot of big feelings and you don't quite know 1118 00:55:30,194 --> 00:55:32,314 Speaker 1: how to put that into words. I think the main 1119 00:55:32,354 --> 00:55:34,674 Speaker 1: tip is like not to say how are you. I 1120 00:55:34,674 --> 00:55:37,634 Speaker 1: think it's just that is conversation killer. I like also 1121 00:55:37,674 --> 00:55:40,914 Speaker 1: asking someone if they're reading anything good, if they're watching 1122 00:55:40,954 --> 00:55:42,474 Speaker 1: the pit because I'm obsessed. 1123 00:55:42,594 --> 00:55:46,994 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, But I also think in terms of the 1124 00:55:47,114 --> 00:55:50,594 Speaker 3: reply only friend and what both of you were saying 1125 00:55:50,634 --> 00:55:54,274 Speaker 3: about those kind of I don't know, different more novel 1126 00:55:54,354 --> 00:55:57,234 Speaker 3: conversation starts. I'm good at that, Like I will see 1127 00:55:57,274 --> 00:56:00,034 Speaker 3: a piece of gossip or something going on on TikTok 1128 00:56:00,074 --> 00:56:01,634 Speaker 3: and I'm like, I know who to say this to you, 1129 00:56:01,834 --> 00:56:03,433 Speaker 3: and we'll have a chat about that, and then we 1130 00:56:03,514 --> 00:56:06,354 Speaker 3: may not talk for six months. That's fine. But with 1131 00:56:06,394 --> 00:56:10,354 Speaker 3: a reply only friend, I think friendship, like any relationship, 1132 00:56:10,434 --> 00:56:13,674 Speaker 3: is based on a dynamic. So I think in some 1133 00:56:13,714 --> 00:56:16,754 Speaker 3: ways I've kind of paired up with friends who were 1134 00:56:16,754 --> 00:56:19,234 Speaker 3: the reach out friend. Yeah, do you know what I mean? 1135 00:56:19,714 --> 00:56:22,554 Speaker 3: And I was wondering, Amelia, because you tell a story 1136 00:56:22,674 --> 00:56:25,073 Speaker 3: on the subs episode that we won't get into because 1137 00:56:25,074 --> 00:56:29,034 Speaker 3: it's so juicy it just needs its space. There about 1138 00:56:29,034 --> 00:56:31,714 Speaker 3: you being very assertive with a friend about a very 1139 00:56:31,754 --> 00:56:35,433 Speaker 3: big life decision. Are you friends with people who are 1140 00:56:35,474 --> 00:56:36,674 Speaker 3: similarly assertive? 1141 00:56:37,914 --> 00:56:41,834 Speaker 1: Oh, that's interesting, I think so, like if someone was 1142 00:56:41,834 --> 00:56:45,393 Speaker 1: that direct with you, well, maybe that's pretty direct. And 1143 00:56:45,474 --> 00:56:48,754 Speaker 1: I feel like we have sometimes our friendship has gone 1144 00:56:48,794 --> 00:56:51,873 Speaker 1: through a stage of just sending each other articles, and 1145 00:56:51,954 --> 00:56:54,834 Speaker 1: that is a way of communicating because maybe there's too 1146 00:56:54,914 --> 00:56:57,754 Speaker 1: much going on in both of our lives to debrief properly. 1147 00:56:57,834 --> 00:56:59,994 Speaker 1: We don't even really want to get into it. So 1148 00:57:00,154 --> 00:57:03,034 Speaker 1: the sending of articles is a way of being in 1149 00:57:03,114 --> 00:57:06,314 Speaker 1: touch without having to get into it at any given time. 1150 00:57:06,634 --> 00:57:11,433 Speaker 3: And it's like, here's where I'm at. Ideologically, that's not 1151 00:57:11,554 --> 00:57:11,953 Speaker 3: your thing. 1152 00:57:12,154 --> 00:57:14,314 Speaker 2: Like I've got friends who we just send pictures like 1153 00:57:14,554 --> 00:57:16,194 Speaker 2: this is what I'm looking at. This is what I mean, 1154 00:57:17,834 --> 00:57:19,754 Speaker 2: glimmers when you're going through a hard time, like this 1155 00:57:19,794 --> 00:57:21,834 Speaker 2: is something will make you laugh, like, but just picture, 1156 00:57:21,994 --> 00:57:25,514 Speaker 2: no pressure to respond. I relate Claire with the fact 1157 00:57:25,554 --> 00:57:27,874 Speaker 2: that because I'm not a very good check in friend, 1158 00:57:28,834 --> 00:57:30,874 Speaker 2: a lot of my friends are good check in friends. 1159 00:57:30,994 --> 00:57:33,474 Speaker 2: And that's probably said, doesn't say anything good about me, 1160 00:57:33,914 --> 00:57:36,954 Speaker 2: but I feel quite smothered if people want things from 1161 00:57:37,034 --> 00:57:39,554 Speaker 2: me all the time. I'm like, eh, but I. 1162 00:57:39,474 --> 00:57:41,234 Speaker 1: Do you suggest social plans? 1163 00:57:41,554 --> 00:57:41,714 Speaker 5: Oh? 1164 00:57:41,794 --> 00:57:44,594 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh definitely I will. My favorite way to socialize 1165 00:57:44,594 --> 00:57:47,114 Speaker 2: is one on one over a walk, a coffee or drink, right, 1166 00:57:47,154 --> 00:57:50,034 Speaker 2: So I much prefer that then group dinners and lots 1167 00:57:50,034 --> 00:57:52,154 Speaker 2: of things like that.
