WEBVTT - Um, WTF Is Going On With Gwyneth & A Very Beckham Weekend

0:00:03.000 --> 0:00:05.040
<v Speaker 1>Hello, and welcome to Mom and me are out loud.

0:00:05.120 --> 0:00:07.480
<v Speaker 1>It's what women are actually talking about on Monday, the

0:00:07.520 --> 0:00:10.120
<v Speaker 1>fifteenth of June. I'm Holly Wayne Wright, I'm.

0:00:09.920 --> 0:00:11.760
<v Speaker 2>Claire Stephens and I'm Amelia Wister.

0:00:12.080 --> 0:00:16.079
<v Speaker 1>And here's what's made our agenda for today. Gwyneth Paltrow

0:00:16.239 --> 0:00:19.720
<v Speaker 1>has made a lot of people extremely furious.

0:00:20.079 --> 0:00:24.160
<v Speaker 3>We explain, have the Beckhams overplayed their hands this time?

0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:26.960
<v Speaker 4>Plus is swimming in the ocean a thing of the

0:00:27.000 --> 0:00:29.680
<v Speaker 4>past for many Australians now.

0:00:29.880 --> 0:00:32.839
<v Speaker 1>But first look, in case you missed it, I was

0:00:32.880 --> 0:00:36.800
<v Speaker 1>away last week and Claire Stevens upset a lot of

0:00:36.800 --> 0:00:40.000
<v Speaker 1>people with some comments you made. Hi. They weren't political,

0:00:40.200 --> 0:00:43.919
<v Speaker 1>they weren't outrageous. They were about sport.

0:00:45.080 --> 0:00:46.279
<v Speaker 5>I'm a shamed.

0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:50.800
<v Speaker 4>I people in my life are annoyed me, but most

0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:53.360
<v Speaker 4>of all, more importantly, the out louders are annoyed me.

0:00:53.760 --> 0:00:55.240
<v Speaker 5>Look, I was I.

0:00:55.480 --> 0:00:58.240
<v Speaker 1>Go away for a week and sports correspondent Claire Stevens

0:00:58.320 --> 0:01:00.880
<v Speaker 1>goes rogue. You were talking about the Knicks, the New

0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:04.959
<v Speaker 1>York Knicks who've just won the championships. For the celebrity favorites,

0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:06.720
<v Speaker 1>Da Da Da Da Da, and you were talking about

0:01:06.760 --> 0:01:10.360
<v Speaker 1>the phenomena, the pop culture phenomena of that. And Claire

0:01:10.760 --> 0:01:13.080
<v Speaker 1>said that, and I have to say that I found

0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:16.119
<v Speaker 1>it a little strange. I love you, but I grew

0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:19.840
<v Speaker 1>up in England, where football is a religion and people

0:01:19.880 --> 0:01:22.680
<v Speaker 1>get very excited about it. We live in Australia, where

0:01:22.760 --> 0:01:26.720
<v Speaker 1>sport again big part of the cultural identity. But you

0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:30.000
<v Speaker 1>said that sporting excitement was an American thing.

0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:33.679
<v Speaker 4>Okay, Firstly, you're only annoyed at me because I made

0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:37.720
<v Speaker 4>fun of your coffee order, and there was also that. Secondly,

0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:41.720
<v Speaker 4>I didn't word myself perfectly. What I meant is that

0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:45.240
<v Speaker 4>when I've been at American sporting events, there is an

0:01:45.400 --> 0:01:51.279
<v Speaker 4>earnestness that doesn't exist elsewhere, for example, and I think

0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 4>I may specifically be thinking of the national anthem. When

0:01:54.920 --> 0:01:58.160
<v Speaker 4>Americans sing the national anthem at the beginning of a

0:01:58.360 --> 0:02:02.480
<v Speaker 4>sporting matt they like cry, I.

0:02:02.480 --> 0:02:04.559
<v Speaker 2>Think you're doing are definitely digging.

0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:08.400
<v Speaker 4>The Australians don't do that. Our lover's sport is more

0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:09.480
<v Speaker 4>fun and more lighthearted.

0:02:09.639 --> 0:02:12.760
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Well, those of us who decided that what you

0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:15.240
<v Speaker 1>said with the Australians don't care about sport, and I

0:02:15.280 --> 0:02:16.760
<v Speaker 1>know that's not what you said, but when have we

0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:18.919
<v Speaker 1>ever left truth get in the way of a good story.

0:02:19.880 --> 0:02:22.840
<v Speaker 1>I found it confusing, So did the eighteen thousand people

0:02:22.960 --> 0:02:26.280
<v Speaker 1>who packed out Melbourne's Federation Square and an overflow venue

0:02:26.360 --> 0:02:29.320
<v Speaker 1>yesterday afternoon to watch the first soccer whose game of

0:02:29.320 --> 0:02:30.839
<v Speaker 1>the World Cup. Are you aware of what the World

0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Cup is?

0:02:31.760 --> 0:02:34.400
<v Speaker 5>I am, and my timing in heimsha.

0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:39.000
<v Speaker 1>Because Australia is about to get one of its contagious

0:02:39.040 --> 0:02:42.080
<v Speaker 1>excitements because the soccer is first game went well. This

0:02:42.200 --> 0:02:44.639
<v Speaker 1>is where we all remember, basically that men play football too,

0:02:45.040 --> 0:02:47.000
<v Speaker 1>because all the countries in the world are in America

0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:47.680
<v Speaker 1>playing football.

0:02:47.680 --> 0:02:47.840
<v Speaker 3>I know.

0:02:47.880 --> 0:02:49.560
<v Speaker 4>I heard World Cup and I was like oh, and

0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:52.480
<v Speaker 4>then I saw men and I was like, oh, anyway.

0:02:52.440 --> 0:02:55.160
<v Speaker 1>The soccer is won and it wasn't actually expected Turkya.

0:02:55.240 --> 0:02:57.239
<v Speaker 1>They were playing in Turkya before. We're doing some shit

0:02:57.320 --> 0:02:59.600
<v Speaker 1>talking and saying like and people said this a very

0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:02.040
<v Speaker 1>average team. Da da da dah. The fact that soccer

0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:04.520
<v Speaker 1>is one mean that everybody is going to be going

0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:08.240
<v Speaker 1>absolutely nuts for this. Claire, learn the names Nestari Eron

0:03:08.320 --> 0:03:11.520
<v Speaker 1>Kunda and Connor Metcalf. They scored the goals yesterday. You're

0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:13.800
<v Speaker 1>going to need to know those to join in the fund.

0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Do you have any official apologies you want to?

0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 2>Where's your notes app?

0:03:18.880 --> 0:03:21.240
<v Speaker 4>I know I actually do need to post a notes

0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:25.440
<v Speaker 4>ap apology, don't I Everyone did go nuts yesterday, didn't

0:03:25.440 --> 0:03:30.600
<v Speaker 4>They did? And I went over to Jesse's house and

0:03:30.639 --> 0:03:34.640
<v Speaker 4>her husband had all the children were crying because he

0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:39.280
<v Speaker 4>had yelled so loudly that they thought he was angry.

0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:43.760
<v Speaker 4>We were sharing videos within our family group chat of

0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:49.240
<v Speaker 4>random family members just absolutely losing it. There were friends

0:03:49.240 --> 0:03:52.080
<v Speaker 4>who were like, I don't know anything about football, but

0:03:52.120 --> 0:03:54.360
<v Speaker 4>I'm at the pub with my with my child.

0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:56.800
<v Speaker 5>Who's who's holding Australian flat?

0:03:56.880 --> 0:03:57.120
<v Speaker 6>You know what?

0:03:57.480 --> 0:03:57.600
<v Speaker 3>Love?

0:03:57.640 --> 0:03:59.840
<v Speaker 1>We love a bandwagon? Oh yes, we're going to be

0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:03.240
<v Speaker 1>soccer barnwagon from here till next Tuesday. The next soccer

0:04:03.320 --> 0:04:06.360
<v Speaker 1>use game, not that anybody cares honestly, is at five

0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:09.080
<v Speaker 1>am Saturday morning. We're playing America and of course the

0:04:09.160 --> 0:04:11.360
<v Speaker 1>state of origin this Wednesday night. Nobody cares about that either.

0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:16.080
<v Speaker 4>Okay, I'm embarrassed, and as somebody who came as somebody

0:04:16.120 --> 0:04:18.920
<v Speaker 4>who came from a rugby league family growing up, I

0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:24.520
<v Speaker 4>hope my extended family weren't listening to that. Soak, I

0:04:24.560 --> 0:04:28.040
<v Speaker 4>thought I'd change the topic to save myself. So in

0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:31.480
<v Speaker 4>case you missed it. On Sunday evening, which is Monday

0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:35.400
<v Speaker 4>morning here in Australia, President Donald Trump announced a peace

0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:39.200
<v Speaker 4>agreement between the US and Iran. The deal with the

0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:42.920
<v Speaker 4>Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete. Congratulations to all,

0:04:43.200 --> 0:04:47.039
<v Speaker 4>he wrote, I hereby fully authorized the toll free opening

0:04:47.080 --> 0:04:48.200
<v Speaker 4>of the Strait of Homewoods.

0:04:48.440 --> 0:04:51.640
<v Speaker 2>I think he's just using here by the sound fancy.

0:04:52.160 --> 0:04:56.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, because then he said, and simultaneously here with authorize

0:04:57.040 --> 0:04:59.680
<v Speaker 4>the immediate removal of the United States Naval blockade.

0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:02.640
<v Speaker 3>Imagine he's like a medieval court jester when he makes

0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:04.240
<v Speaker 3>these pronouncements.

0:05:03.600 --> 0:05:05.960
<v Speaker 4>And it's like, mate, every other one of your bloody

0:05:06.000 --> 0:05:08.640
<v Speaker 4>truth social post has typos in it, like it's not

0:05:08.680 --> 0:05:12.119
<v Speaker 4>part of your brand. He then wrote, this great deal

0:05:12.160 --> 0:05:15.040
<v Speaker 4>will bring peace and security to the whole region. Many

0:05:15.120 --> 0:05:17.800
<v Speaker 4>presidents have tried to make peace with Iran and all

0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:20.279
<v Speaker 4>have failed. Before me, the leaders of the region have

0:05:20.440 --> 0:05:22.800
<v Speaker 4>for the first time found a president who can help

0:05:22.839 --> 0:05:26.080
<v Speaker 4>them achieve real peace now. In the lead up to

0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:31.040
<v Speaker 4>the news, representatives of the Islamic Republic said that Trump

0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:35.280
<v Speaker 4>had an unusual insistence that the deal would coincide with

0:05:35.360 --> 0:05:37.159
<v Speaker 4>his eightieth birthday, and that's.

0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:38.440
<v Speaker 1>What I wondered if it was a present.

0:05:38.760 --> 0:05:42.359
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, He's like, oh, nothing like a deadline. For some reason,

0:05:42.360 --> 0:05:45.919
<v Speaker 4>it was his eightieth birthday. He's also celebrating his adth

0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:48.159
<v Speaker 4>by hosting a UFC event on the lawn of the

0:05:48.160 --> 0:05:50.640
<v Speaker 4>White House. So those things who among us has not

0:05:50.680 --> 0:05:54.279
<v Speaker 4>wished for that exactly. In response to the news, one

0:05:54.360 --> 0:05:58.839
<v Speaker 4>Congressman Seth Moulton criticized the economic and human toll of

0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:01.840
<v Speaker 4>the war, saying this it's a terrible deal. It's basically

0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:05.000
<v Speaker 4>a surrender document from Donald Trump to the Supreme Leader

0:06:05.000 --> 0:06:08.080
<v Speaker 4>of Iran. I mean, one hundred billion dollars of tax

0:06:08.080 --> 0:06:11.600
<v Speaker 4>payer money already put into this war, fourteen Americans dead,

0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:13.960
<v Speaker 4>and we get a deal that just reopens a strait

0:06:14.000 --> 0:06:16.600
<v Speaker 4>that was already opened before he started this stupid war.

0:06:16.839 --> 0:06:17.720
<v Speaker 1>How is that a win?

0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:19.400
<v Speaker 5>Amelia.

0:06:19.600 --> 0:06:23.000
<v Speaker 4>There's a lot we don't know about this peace agreement,

0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:27.040
<v Speaker 4>not in the least because there's so much political spin attached,

0:06:27.080 --> 0:06:30.080
<v Speaker 4>which you won't believe. But Trump, he gets very into

0:06:30.120 --> 0:06:33.520
<v Speaker 4>the spin. What do we know about what this means?

0:06:33.560 --> 0:06:37.839
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's a good question. Well, Iran has confirmed a ceasefire, agreement.

0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:41.640
<v Speaker 3>It's confirmed, specifically that there is an end to the

0:06:41.640 --> 0:06:46.800
<v Speaker 3>military conflict on all fronts, including in Lebanon. Not as

0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:50.320
<v Speaker 3>I said, Iran agreed to that. Israel may or may

0:06:50.400 --> 0:06:53.920
<v Speaker 3>not have agreed to the end of fighting in Lebanon,

0:06:54.120 --> 0:06:55.880
<v Speaker 3>and for that matter, Hesbla may or may not have

0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:57.560
<v Speaker 3>agreed to the end of fighting in Lebanon. But that

0:06:57.680 --> 0:07:00.640
<v Speaker 3>is what the US and Iran agreed. The second thing

0:07:00.640 --> 0:07:03.560
<v Speaker 3>that we know is that there is it does appear

0:07:03.720 --> 0:07:08.520
<v Speaker 3>like the US blockade of the Strait has ended, because that's,

0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:10.640
<v Speaker 3>by the way, why the strait wasn't open right now.

0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:14.320
<v Speaker 3>It's because the US had blocked the strait. So that's

0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:14.960
<v Speaker 3>worth noting.

0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:18.200
<v Speaker 1>Does that mean Amelia, I know, I don't know if

0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:20.600
<v Speaker 1>you could answer this or not. Is petrol about to

0:07:20.640 --> 0:07:21.440
<v Speaker 1>get cheap O again?

0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:25.520
<v Speaker 3>No, I don't think so, because we don't yet. So

0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:27.560
<v Speaker 3>that brings me to the things that we don't know.

0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:29.200
<v Speaker 3>And one of the things we don't know is whether

0:07:29.280 --> 0:07:30.960
<v Speaker 3>or not I Ran is going to start charging a

0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:33.640
<v Speaker 3>toll in the Strait of Hormootes, because one might say,

0:07:33.640 --> 0:07:36.880
<v Speaker 3>why wouldn't they because they've realized now what leverage they

0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:40.080
<v Speaker 3>have over people. So we don't actually know what's going

0:07:40.120 --> 0:07:42.360
<v Speaker 3>to happen with that, and we don't know what's happened

0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:44.840
<v Speaker 3>with the nuclear program, which was his whole ostensible reason

0:07:44.840 --> 0:07:45.560
<v Speaker 3>for starting the war.

0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:48.400
<v Speaker 4>Trump did say that it was a toll free opening

0:07:48.400 --> 0:07:50.880
<v Speaker 4>of the strait. Oh well, Trump said, Trump says it.

0:07:51.000 --> 0:07:53.280
<v Speaker 3>That's kind of like, yeah, Trump doesn't own the Strait

0:07:53.320 --> 0:07:55.800
<v Speaker 3>of Hormootes, so it doesn't really matter what Trump says

0:07:55.840 --> 0:07:57.640
<v Speaker 3>about it. But I do think it's right that he

0:07:57.680 --> 0:07:58.920
<v Speaker 3>wanted it done for his birthday.

0:07:59.040 --> 0:08:02.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, a piece of fit. You think it's been three

0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:07.960
<v Speaker 1>weeks of escalating Gwyneth's crisis crises in fact, and look,

0:08:08.000 --> 0:08:10.280
<v Speaker 1>I was away last week when the really big one hit,

0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:14.600
<v Speaker 1>but my DMS took a smashing. I am associated with

0:08:14.640 --> 0:08:17.480
<v Speaker 1>Gwyneth Paltrow and I would now like to be removed

0:08:17.480 --> 0:08:18.320
<v Speaker 1>from this narrative.

0:08:18.400 --> 0:08:21.440
<v Speaker 4>Please, it is I would there needs to be a

0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:26.640
<v Speaker 4>historical study about how Hollywayinwright became because you really do

0:08:26.760 --> 0:08:29.800
<v Speaker 4>like when I see Gwyneth do something, I'm like, oh god, Holly,

0:08:30.760 --> 0:08:32.680
<v Speaker 4>and last.

0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:35.640
<v Speaker 1>Week in particular, that was not good for me. Let

0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:39.680
<v Speaker 1>me explain some of these things, because they're sort of silly,

0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:43.600
<v Speaker 1>to surprising, to completely shocking, right, what sort of happened

0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:48.360
<v Speaker 1>Week one was a regular gate am I saying sorry

0:08:48.400 --> 0:08:50.800
<v Speaker 1>because here in Australia we just call that rocket. It's

0:08:50.800 --> 0:08:53.280
<v Speaker 1>the green stuff I grow it in my garden. Flex

0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Gwyneth is using rocket in a very upsetting way. We've

0:08:57.920 --> 0:09:00.000
<v Speaker 1>got a little grab of her on the US Today

0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:04.839
<v Speaker 1>Show talking to Savannah Guthrie about where she puts her arugular.

0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:07.680
<v Speaker 7>You want to avoid dairy. One trick that I do

0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:11.640
<v Speaker 7>is I dice up arugula and I.

0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:12.200
<v Speaker 2>Put it in.

0:09:12.400 --> 0:09:15.120
<v Speaker 7>Really it sounds weird, but it kind of adds like

0:09:15.200 --> 0:09:17.320
<v Speaker 7>a nice texture to it and it's delicious.

0:09:18.040 --> 0:09:18.280
<v Speaker 3>Now.

0:09:19.360 --> 0:09:24.079
<v Speaker 1>I like rocket. I eat it quite a lot. Salad, parmesan, tomatoes, yum.

0:09:24.679 --> 0:09:28.720
<v Speaker 4>Dairy substitute question mark doesn't make any sense. Some of

0:09:28.720 --> 0:09:31.840
<v Speaker 4>my favorite comments in response to this were I replace

0:09:31.920 --> 0:09:35.559
<v Speaker 4>my chicken with marshmallows, and sometimes when I want a salad,

0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:38.680
<v Speaker 4>I make a margarita. And that's really where we're at.

0:09:38.840 --> 0:09:42.320
<v Speaker 4>It's like, that's it's not I have to google is it?

0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:42.839
<v Speaker 3>There? Is?

0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:46.239
<v Speaker 5>Is rocket dairy? No?

0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:49.640
<v Speaker 1>No, it's really not. Even if you don't know much

0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:53.640
<v Speaker 1>about that, it's really really not. Then things took a

0:09:53.679 --> 0:09:57.160
<v Speaker 1>more serious and surprising turn. Gwenneth has a podcast called

0:09:57.240 --> 0:10:01.480
<v Speaker 1>Goop Up. Yes, I listened to it.

0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:02.160
<v Speaker 5>Listen to this particular episode.

0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:05.760
<v Speaker 1>No, I was busy. I did not listen to this,

0:10:06.000 --> 0:10:09.360
<v Speaker 1>but for reasons that I don't understand. She had a

0:10:09.400 --> 0:10:12.880
<v Speaker 1>man on there called Trey stevens Now. He runs a

0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:18.440
<v Speaker 1>military tech company which makes missiles and combat drones, and

0:10:18.559 --> 0:10:22.320
<v Speaker 1>Gwyneth and Trey discussed, among other things, why Jesus would

0:10:22.360 --> 0:10:26.000
<v Speaker 1>be cool with Trey selling weapons of war. This already

0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:29.440
<v Speaker 1>made a lot of people angry. This was after a

0:10:29.480 --> 0:10:32.920
<v Speaker 1>clip had surfaced of Gwyneth where she was talking about politics.

0:10:33.360 --> 0:10:35.559
<v Speaker 1>The bit that you might have seen that went quite

0:10:35.640 --> 0:10:39.640
<v Speaker 1>viral was Gwyneth was talking about her politics, and she

0:10:39.760 --> 0:10:42.360
<v Speaker 1>was basically saying that these days she's neither left nor right,

0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:45.319
<v Speaker 1>and her husband's very progressive and he basically thinks she's

0:10:45.320 --> 0:10:48.719
<v Speaker 1>a Republican, but she doesn't feel anything anymore. Gwyneth was

0:10:48.760 --> 0:10:51.960
<v Speaker 1>talking about her own political positioning, and this is what

0:10:52.000 --> 0:10:52.719
<v Speaker 1>she said.

0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:55.720
<v Speaker 7>I noticed with my own husband, who's the best person

0:10:55.840 --> 0:10:59.000
<v Speaker 7>ever in the world. He's so progressive, Like he has

0:10:59.080 --> 0:11:02.800
<v Speaker 7>such a sweet heart and he wants to like make

0:11:02.840 --> 0:11:07.360
<v Speaker 7>sure everybody's looked after I'm pretty centrist and my husband

0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:12.360
<v Speaker 7>thinks I'm a Republican, which I'm not a Republican. I mean,

0:11:12.400 --> 0:11:14.920
<v Speaker 7>I don't feel anything right now, to be totally honest

0:11:14.920 --> 0:11:17.319
<v Speaker 7>with you, I feel like I'm completely an independent.

0:11:17.640 --> 0:11:19.480
<v Speaker 2>She's so condescending to Brad.

0:11:19.760 --> 0:11:22.360
<v Speaker 4>Brad, Oh, he's such a good person.

0:11:22.720 --> 0:11:23.120
<v Speaker 5>That's what.

0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:25.760
<v Speaker 4>It's a very American thing to almost be.

0:11:26.040 --> 0:11:27.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh, Claire, be careful.

0:11:28.679 --> 0:11:32.720
<v Speaker 4>To be like, you're a do gooder, you know what

0:11:32.760 --> 0:11:35.719
<v Speaker 4>I mean, Like, oh, you're such a do good like like, oh,

0:11:35.760 --> 0:11:37.840
<v Speaker 4>he's such a good persons.

0:11:38.280 --> 0:11:40.400
<v Speaker 3>Think that a lot of people on the right like

0:11:40.480 --> 0:11:42.600
<v Speaker 3>to love a people on the left is that they're

0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:45.719
<v Speaker 3>just sort of unrealistic and just soppy.

0:11:45.600 --> 0:11:49.000
<v Speaker 4>Whereas Gwyneth in that interview talks a lot about how,

0:11:49.720 --> 0:11:52.560
<v Speaker 4>you know, we've got darkness and light within us, and

0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:53.880
<v Speaker 4>it's it's a battle for both.

0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:56.360
<v Speaker 1>And it's like a conversation to have with a missile dealer.

0:11:56.440 --> 0:11:59.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah it's okay to make missiles because I feel kind

0:11:59.240 --> 0:11:59.880
<v Speaker 4>of weird about.

0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:02.880
<v Speaker 3>It, think that that podcast was spun. Can't why would

0:12:02.960 --> 0:12:05.439
<v Speaker 3>she have an arms dealer on her show, Like I

0:12:05.440 --> 0:12:07.600
<v Speaker 3>shouldn't say armstealer, arms manufacturer?

0:12:08.400 --> 0:12:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Be really clear about the distinction. None of this makes

0:12:11.640 --> 0:12:14.600
<v Speaker 1>any sense to me, Ami, because we're about to discuss

0:12:14.679 --> 0:12:19.000
<v Speaker 1>the final Gwyneth controversy, and then we're really out tokay,

0:12:19.240 --> 0:12:23.439
<v Speaker 1>as they say, right, But then the third Gwyneth controversy

0:12:23.640 --> 0:12:26.840
<v Speaker 1>landed when she appeared in an ad for a luxury

0:12:26.880 --> 0:12:30.720
<v Speaker 1>apartment complex called fifty one Park, which happens to be

0:12:30.840 --> 0:12:35.640
<v Speaker 1>located just north of Tel Aviv in Israel. Deciding to

0:12:35.679 --> 0:12:39.520
<v Speaker 1>advertise luxury apartments in Israel at this particular moment is

0:12:39.760 --> 0:12:44.319
<v Speaker 1>at the very least and interesting decision. The company involved

0:12:44.440 --> 0:12:47.920
<v Speaker 1>also runs a commercial real estate company in the occupied

0:12:47.960 --> 0:12:51.200
<v Speaker 1>West Bank, which is about thirty kilometers away from the

0:12:51.240 --> 0:12:55.160
<v Speaker 1>apartment building Gwyneth is advertising, and in fact Gaza is

0:12:55.240 --> 0:12:58.800
<v Speaker 1>only about eighty kilometers from fifty one Park, So the

0:12:58.880 --> 0:13:01.040
<v Speaker 1>ad itself not going to play you. A bit of

0:13:01.040 --> 0:13:03.840
<v Speaker 1>it shows gwyneths getting ready in the morning early as

0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:07.120
<v Speaker 1>she would. As she does, she says, even her coffee

0:13:07.120 --> 0:13:07.720
<v Speaker 1>needs coffee.

0:13:07.840 --> 0:13:09.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's really bad writing.

0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Then she's got really her fancy active. Weear on and

0:13:13.040 --> 0:13:14.920
<v Speaker 1>she goes for a run through what appears to be

0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:17.800
<v Speaker 1>Central Park, and it was apparently filmed in a closed

0:13:17.800 --> 0:13:20.040
<v Speaker 1>set in New York. She was there two weeks ago,

0:13:20.080 --> 0:13:22.480
<v Speaker 1>not that I track her whereabouts, so maybe even as

0:13:22.520 --> 0:13:25.160
<v Speaker 1>recently as that, who knows. She runs through Central Park,

0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:27.360
<v Speaker 1>then she comes back to this very fancy apartment block

0:13:27.400 --> 0:13:30.160
<v Speaker 1>that is all very New York coded, with a dorman

0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:31.720
<v Speaker 1>and all that kind of thing. And then as she

0:13:31.800 --> 0:13:34.839
<v Speaker 1>comes back out of it, someone asks her. She says,

0:13:35.040 --> 0:13:37.680
<v Speaker 1>it's a reason why all great apartment buildings are built

0:13:37.679 --> 0:13:40.160
<v Speaker 1>near parks. And someone says Central Park, and she says no,

0:13:40.360 --> 0:13:43.440
<v Speaker 1>and then says the name of the development Israel. It

0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:46.600
<v Speaker 1>is a strange ad in and of itself. And then

0:13:46.720 --> 0:13:50.720
<v Speaker 1>finding out where this apartment block was, Claire, I'm gonna

0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:54.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna explore my position on Gwyneth, given that we

0:13:54.960 --> 0:13:59.280
<v Speaker 1>are inextricably linked somehow. Now, but can you see any

0:13:59.280 --> 0:14:01.520
<v Speaker 1>good reason for to have made these recent moves?

0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:04.160
<v Speaker 5>This ad like I've seen.

0:14:04.720 --> 0:14:10.400
<v Speaker 4>I saw the arugula thing, and then I missed the

0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:13.280
<v Speaker 4>weapons manufacturer. And when I saw this, I thought it

0:14:13.360 --> 0:14:15.520
<v Speaker 4>was AI. I thought it was I thought it was

0:14:15.559 --> 0:14:18.360
<v Speaker 4>a fake because it's a very bad ad. It's a

0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:23.640
<v Speaker 4>really bad because it's not a good quality ad. But

0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:29.680
<v Speaker 4>the thing that just baffles me is so It was

0:14:29.720 --> 0:14:33.600
<v Speaker 4>shot in New York, and she has a line where

0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:36.160
<v Speaker 4>she says, there's a reason the world's most iconic buildings

0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:39.040
<v Speaker 4>are by a park, fifty one park, And it's like,

0:14:39.480 --> 0:14:41.440
<v Speaker 4>do we want to talk about what else this is?

0:14:41.560 --> 0:14:41.800
<v Speaker 3>Bye?

0:14:42.840 --> 0:14:47.960
<v Speaker 4>Like it's just so incredibly dystopian. People have said it's

0:14:48.080 --> 0:14:52.600
<v Speaker 4>quite zone of interest, Like it's just it's giving a

0:14:52.680 --> 0:14:57.760
<v Speaker 4>complete ignorance to what is going on in that region.

0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:01.760
<v Speaker 4>And you just look at it and go, did you

0:15:01.840 --> 0:15:04.360
<v Speaker 4>think about this for five minutes before you said yes?

0:15:04.680 --> 0:15:06.840
<v Speaker 3>And I see why they're saying it, But it is

0:15:06.880 --> 0:15:10.160
<v Speaker 3>an ad for apartment buildings and not an op ed

0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:11.120
<v Speaker 3>in the newspaper.

0:15:11.640 --> 0:15:14.480
<v Speaker 2>And I wonder if in doing.

0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:18.000
<v Speaker 3>This very sort of shoddily made ad, Gwyneth is kind

0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:20.520
<v Speaker 3>of goading us because she knows this is going to

0:15:20.520 --> 0:15:23.680
<v Speaker 3>be the response, And maybe she's trying to prove some

0:15:23.840 --> 0:15:26.320
<v Speaker 3>point that like, oh, I can't even make an ad anymore.

0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:27.560
<v Speaker 2>I can't even make an ad.

0:15:27.600 --> 0:15:30.480
<v Speaker 3>I'm I'm not doing I'm not protesting anything, I'm not

0:15:30.520 --> 0:15:33.520
<v Speaker 3>writing an op ed. I'm not manufacturing arms. I know.

0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:36.640
<v Speaker 1>But then when you tie it with the manufacturing arms guy,

0:15:36.720 --> 0:15:39.680
<v Speaker 1>that was weird. Assuming that Gwyneth is not ignorant of

0:15:39.680 --> 0:15:43.240
<v Speaker 1>what's going on in that region. There is only one explanation.

0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:45.840
<v Speaker 2>Who's not ignorant of it? The weapons manufacturer.

0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:50.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, exactly right. There is only really one explanation for

0:15:50.560 --> 0:15:53.840
<v Speaker 1>her fronting this campaign, and that's that they paid her

0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:56.960
<v Speaker 1>an enormous amount of money. Do we think, yes, they?

0:15:57.080 --> 0:16:00.720
<v Speaker 4>I mean they must have been surely an advertise something.

0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:02.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, this is what it brings us to. Right, So,

0:16:02.800 --> 0:16:06.000
<v Speaker 1>assuming that Gwyneth Paltrow was offered an obscene amount of

0:16:06.000 --> 0:16:10.720
<v Speaker 1>money to front this apartment block, how and why did

0:16:10.760 --> 0:16:13.920
<v Speaker 1>she possibly think that this was a good idea for

0:16:14.000 --> 0:16:14.440
<v Speaker 1>her brand.

0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:18.240
<v Speaker 3>I think it's feature, not bug for her. I think

0:16:18.280 --> 0:16:20.720
<v Speaker 3>some people would look at this and see it as

0:16:20.760 --> 0:16:24.840
<v Speaker 3>the next step in Gwyneth being really savvy about which

0:16:24.880 --> 0:16:28.120
<v Speaker 3>way the wind is blowing. And we are seeing a

0:16:28.200 --> 0:16:31.960
<v Speaker 3>right wood turn in culture at the moment. The rich

0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:36.960
<v Speaker 3>and the powerful are riching and powerful. Ng Elon Musk

0:16:37.160 --> 0:16:40.560
<v Speaker 3>just this weekend became the world's first trillionaire, according to

0:16:40.560 --> 0:16:43.560
<v Speaker 3>Fortune magazine, And rather than look on that as a

0:16:43.680 --> 0:16:46.440
<v Speaker 3>kind of like sign of the decay of humanity.

0:16:46.040 --> 0:16:48.080
<v Speaker 2>A lot of people were super happy about it.

0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:52.160
<v Speaker 3>In fact, it was individual investors who put their own

0:16:52.160 --> 0:16:54.960
<v Speaker 3>money into this that led to Elon Musk becoming the

0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:56.080
<v Speaker 3>world's first trillionaire.

0:16:56.240 --> 0:16:58.480
<v Speaker 2>So I just think we're in a moment.

0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:06.080
<v Speaker 3>Where liberal doogle is seen as sort of passe, unrealistic,

0:17:07.520 --> 0:17:09.560
<v Speaker 3>and it's certainly not where the money and the power is.

0:17:09.800 --> 0:17:15.200
<v Speaker 1>So Gwyneth is famous for riding controversies, right she If

0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:17.760
<v Speaker 1>you ever have listened to the Goop podcast, maybe not

0:17:17.800 --> 0:17:20.160
<v Speaker 1>the one with the arms Deeeler, but any other, you'll

0:17:20.200 --> 0:17:22.800
<v Speaker 1>actually here at the beginning of quote from Oprah, famous

0:17:22.840 --> 0:17:27.160
<v Speaker 1>quote from Oprah right where she says, when you are

0:17:27.200 --> 0:17:30.840
<v Speaker 1>pioneering anything or introducing new ideas to the culture, you

0:17:30.880 --> 0:17:33.680
<v Speaker 1>get criticized. And then Gwyneth goes, you do, I wouldn't

0:17:33.680 --> 0:17:35.600
<v Speaker 1>know anything about that, and they have a little chuckle,

0:17:36.000 --> 0:17:37.800
<v Speaker 1>and I guess the idea is in. Gwyneth has said

0:17:37.800 --> 0:17:41.359
<v Speaker 1>this lots of times that she believes, you know, the

0:17:41.400 --> 0:17:43.760
<v Speaker 1>whole jade egg of it all, the vagina jade egg,

0:17:43.880 --> 0:17:48.199
<v Speaker 1>the vagina steaming thing, those kind of controversies that she

0:17:48.359 --> 0:17:52.879
<v Speaker 1>has weathered, that she has used those for publicity for

0:17:52.960 --> 0:17:55.520
<v Speaker 1>Goop to kind of she now says, oh, well, I

0:17:55.560 --> 0:17:57.760
<v Speaker 1>was just ahead of my time. Which is interesting to

0:17:57.800 --> 0:18:00.159
<v Speaker 1>your point just then, Amelia about whether she's reading the

0:18:00.240 --> 0:18:05.280
<v Speaker 1>ruins on that. But this feels different because if you

0:18:05.480 --> 0:18:09.000
<v Speaker 1>now go to any of Gwyneth's posts, because as I say,

0:18:09.119 --> 0:18:11.280
<v Speaker 1>she didn't post this, And there was a time, once

0:18:11.359 --> 0:18:14.159
<v Speaker 1>upon a time when famous Hollywood people would go to

0:18:14.200 --> 0:18:15.960
<v Speaker 1>all kinds of corners of the world and make ads

0:18:15.960 --> 0:18:19.440
<v Speaker 1>for questionable things in the sort of assumption that no

0:18:19.480 --> 0:18:22.280
<v Speaker 1>one who matters in inverted commas is ever going to

0:18:22.320 --> 0:18:24.720
<v Speaker 1>see this ad. But those days are gone, and Gwyneth

0:18:24.760 --> 0:18:27.200
<v Speaker 1>knows that, right. But if you go to Gwinnisfeed or

0:18:27.200 --> 0:18:29.439
<v Speaker 1>Goop's feed, this ad is nowhere to be seen. But

0:18:29.680 --> 0:18:32.640
<v Speaker 1>every comment on all her other things, so she's in

0:18:32.680 --> 0:18:35.760
<v Speaker 1>New York to promote goop Eats or whatever it's called,

0:18:35.800 --> 0:18:39.040
<v Speaker 1>Goop Kitchen, every comment is about this, and they are

0:18:39.400 --> 0:18:42.720
<v Speaker 1>vehemently saying, you know, calling her names, as I alluded

0:18:42.720 --> 0:18:47.000
<v Speaker 1>to in the intro, like it has overtaken her brand

0:18:47.080 --> 0:18:51.240
<v Speaker 1>for a moment, and putting aside the actual ethics of

0:18:51.320 --> 0:18:53.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, she's the one who says my husband is

0:18:53.080 --> 0:18:55.200
<v Speaker 1>the best person in the world and he's really progressive,

0:18:55.440 --> 0:18:57.879
<v Speaker 1>putting aside. I know, it's very hard to do that,

0:18:57.880 --> 0:18:59.760
<v Speaker 1>putting aside the ethics of whether or not you should

0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:03.560
<v Speaker 1>do this. Isn't this just a stupid idea for someone

0:19:03.560 --> 0:19:05.440
<v Speaker 1>who's trying to sell us salads?

0:19:05.640 --> 0:19:06.600
<v Speaker 2>You mean cheese?

0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Oh? Yes, that's right.

0:19:09.080 --> 0:19:13.240
<v Speaker 4>She said before in a Harvard Business School lecture that basically,

0:19:13.960 --> 0:19:16.800
<v Speaker 4>like part of her strategy is to have these viral

0:19:17.000 --> 0:19:20.800
<v Speaker 4>uproars and then monetize those eyeballs, and in a twenty

0:19:20.840 --> 0:19:26.920
<v Speaker 4>eighteen New York Times profile, the author wrote, Goop has

0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:29.359
<v Speaker 4>learnt to do a special kind of dark art to

0:19:29.440 --> 0:19:32.080
<v Speaker 4>coral the vitriol of the internet and the ever present

0:19:32.200 --> 0:19:35.960
<v Speaker 4>shall we call it cultural ambivalence about Gwyneth Paltrow herself

0:19:36.000 --> 0:19:38.959
<v Speaker 4>and turn them into cash. The thing I'm interested in

0:19:39.000 --> 0:19:46.439
<v Speaker 4>here is, I mean, it's so the anger is obviously

0:19:46.680 --> 0:19:49.760
<v Speaker 4>just so predictable what people are going to say. And

0:19:49.800 --> 0:19:52.840
<v Speaker 4>there are countless op eds, and there are countless TikTok

0:19:52.880 --> 0:19:58.159
<v Speaker 4>analyses of this ad, and I mean just really interesting

0:19:58.200 --> 0:20:02.000
<v Speaker 4>points about having a luxury apartment. Bloh, where the level

0:20:02.000 --> 0:20:04.720
<v Speaker 4>of luxury there's a Pilates pool. I'm like, I didn't,

0:20:04.720 --> 0:20:06.560
<v Speaker 4>I had to google what a Pilartes's pool was. The

0:20:06.640 --> 0:20:10.840
<v Speaker 4>level of luxury next to like, not far from where

0:20:11.040 --> 0:20:15.120
<v Speaker 4>one point seven million people are starving and sick and

0:20:15.760 --> 0:20:21.399
<v Speaker 4>it's horrific and homeless and homeless, and for her to

0:20:22.040 --> 0:20:28.440
<v Speaker 4>not see that contrast is so bizarre. But then at

0:20:28.440 --> 0:20:32.320
<v Speaker 4>the same time it tracks with the with the brand

0:20:32.440 --> 0:20:38.880
<v Speaker 4>of kind of unapologetic privilege. And I wonder if because

0:20:38.920 --> 0:20:42.600
<v Speaker 4>she is blonde and because she is beautiful, she is

0:20:42.640 --> 0:20:44.560
<v Speaker 4>immune from people seeing her as dangerous.

0:20:44.960 --> 0:20:45.760
<v Speaker 5>Do you know what I mean?

0:20:46.080 --> 0:20:48.840
<v Speaker 1>I think the opposite in a way. I because as

0:20:48.840 --> 0:20:51.160
<v Speaker 1>somebody who and I want to be clear about something here.

0:20:51.320 --> 0:20:52.879
<v Speaker 1>I often say this on the show, and I know

0:20:52.960 --> 0:20:55.800
<v Speaker 1>not everybody agrees or can get a handle on it.

0:20:55.840 --> 0:20:57.600
<v Speaker 1>I am really interested in lots of people who I

0:20:57.640 --> 0:21:00.480
<v Speaker 1>disagree with, right, so I don't when is one of

0:21:00.520 --> 0:21:03.720
<v Speaker 1>those public figures, pop culture figures who fascinates me. It

0:21:03.760 --> 0:21:06.080
<v Speaker 1>doesn't necessarily mean I love her, that I like her,

0:21:06.200 --> 0:21:08.400
<v Speaker 1>that I endorse her, but she's someone I can't look

0:21:08.440 --> 0:21:12.000
<v Speaker 1>away from. And I don't think you have to agree

0:21:12.040 --> 0:21:16.120
<v Speaker 1>with everybody's politics in order to, you know, find them interesting.

0:21:16.880 --> 0:21:21.160
<v Speaker 1>But the thing about this is this shows exactly that

0:21:21.240 --> 0:21:24.520
<v Speaker 1>Gwynneth is exactly who everybody said she was. Do you

0:21:24.520 --> 0:21:26.800
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean the people who have always thought

0:21:26.880 --> 0:21:33.520
<v Speaker 1>she's just a blonde, privileged, dangerous person. Perhaps that people

0:21:33.560 --> 0:21:35.639
<v Speaker 1>have been saying that about Gwyneth for a very long time,

0:21:35.960 --> 0:21:38.600
<v Speaker 1>and people like me go, oh but Jade Eggs lol.

0:21:38.760 --> 0:21:45.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, but this, this level of tone deafness, confirms

0:21:45.600 --> 0:21:46.760
<v Speaker 1>all of those that.

0:21:46.840 --> 0:21:50.640
<v Speaker 3>You said before. Does she not see the contrast? You

0:21:50.720 --> 0:21:53.280
<v Speaker 3>just use the word tone deaf. I don't think that

0:21:54.000 --> 0:21:56.199
<v Speaker 3>either of those is right, because I think that that

0:21:56.359 --> 0:22:00.720
<v Speaker 3>implies that like she's made a mistake or an error.

0:22:01.359 --> 0:22:04.640
<v Speaker 3>But she is not making an error or a mistake.

0:22:04.760 --> 0:22:07.600
<v Speaker 3>She is not just failing to see the contrast or

0:22:07.640 --> 0:22:10.760
<v Speaker 3>failing to understand this is torn to She wants to

0:22:10.840 --> 0:22:15.359
<v Speaker 3>do this and the reason why she wants to do

0:22:15.440 --> 0:22:18.960
<v Speaker 3>it is because what she's always been best at is

0:22:19.080 --> 0:22:22.359
<v Speaker 3>reading the room, and the room right now loves money

0:22:22.400 --> 0:22:24.080
<v Speaker 3>and power above all else.

0:22:24.160 --> 0:22:25.840
<v Speaker 2>And by room, I guess I mean consumers.

0:22:25.920 --> 0:22:27.840
<v Speaker 3>I guess I mean American consumers, if I'm going to

0:22:27.920 --> 0:22:30.199
<v Speaker 3>drill down on it more specifically.

0:22:29.840 --> 0:22:34.960
<v Speaker 1>And she has been turning for it, so Hollywood generally,

0:22:35.080 --> 0:22:37.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, certainly gets criticism from President Trump for this

0:22:37.800 --> 0:22:40.520
<v Speaker 1>was always generally considered to be smaller liberal. You know

0:22:40.680 --> 0:22:45.400
<v Speaker 1>and progressive and creative. The creative community is all assumed,

0:22:45.520 --> 0:22:48.439
<v Speaker 1>and Gwyneth has been positioning herself away from that for

0:22:48.520 --> 0:22:51.080
<v Speaker 1>quite a long time. I've listened to interviews with her

0:22:51.119 --> 0:22:53.720
<v Speaker 1>where she's talked about how fascinated she is by billionaires

0:22:53.760 --> 0:22:55.760
<v Speaker 1>and founders and tech people and all that stuff, and

0:22:55.800 --> 0:22:59.960
<v Speaker 1>that she clearly sees herself moving in those circles now, Amelia,

0:23:00.160 --> 0:23:05.080
<v Speaker 1>So you're absolutely right. Also, people like me who once

0:23:05.119 --> 0:23:09.280
<v Speaker 1>were like, oh, I find her interesting whatever, now going oh,

0:23:09.359 --> 0:23:12.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't think So that's not her concern because she knows,

0:23:12.840 --> 0:23:15.600
<v Speaker 1>to Amelia's point, that the people who are commenting on

0:23:15.640 --> 0:23:19.200
<v Speaker 1>Instagram do not really have any power, but the people

0:23:19.200 --> 0:23:22.080
<v Speaker 1>who are building luxury apartment blocks wherever the hell they want,

0:23:22.119 --> 0:23:27.040
<v Speaker 1>all over the world do. And interestingly, the the agency

0:23:27.080 --> 0:23:29.199
<v Speaker 1>who put this ad together put a note on LinkedIn

0:23:29.359 --> 0:23:32.360
<v Speaker 1>saying to bring this architectural masterpiece to the Israeli audience,

0:23:32.720 --> 0:23:35.959
<v Speaker 1>because that tells you this ad is for an Israeli audience,

0:23:36.040 --> 0:23:38.719
<v Speaker 1>not for the world. We needed a figure who effortlessly

0:23:38.760 --> 0:23:45.040
<v Speaker 1>embodied international elegance, a premium lifestyle, an uncompromising quality, enter

0:23:45.160 --> 0:23:48.800
<v Speaker 1>Academy Award, Emmy and Golden Globe winner Gwyneth Poultra.

0:23:49.000 --> 0:23:51.120
<v Speaker 3>I think you could also be for Americans, by the way,

0:23:51.280 --> 0:23:54.080
<v Speaker 3>in addition to Israelis. And I think that there's a

0:23:54.119 --> 0:23:56.440
<v Speaker 3>reason why they're trying to conflate New York and tell

0:23:56.480 --> 0:24:00.720
<v Speaker 3>Aviva that ad. But I think that she's not just

0:24:00.840 --> 0:24:03.560
<v Speaker 3>similar to Anana wind Tour in that, you know, Anna

0:24:03.560 --> 0:24:05.199
<v Speaker 3>Winter back in the day said I'm never going to

0:24:05.200 --> 0:24:07.600
<v Speaker 3>put Kim kardashi In on the cover of Vogue, and

0:24:07.640 --> 0:24:10.920
<v Speaker 3>then the winds changed and everyone became obsessed with Kim Kardashian.

0:24:10.960 --> 0:24:13.639
<v Speaker 3>She puts her on the cover of Vogue, and more recently,

0:24:14.000 --> 0:24:16.440
<v Speaker 3>Lauren Sanchez Bezos has been on the cover of Vogue

0:24:16.480 --> 0:24:17.959
<v Speaker 3>and her wedding was covered extensively.

0:24:18.040 --> 0:24:19.200
<v Speaker 2>These people who.

0:24:20.600 --> 0:24:23.000
<v Speaker 3>Who kind of set and defined the culture, this is

0:24:23.040 --> 0:24:26.040
<v Speaker 3>what they do. I mean, I'm not I'm not casting

0:24:26.040 --> 0:24:28.480
<v Speaker 3>a judgment on it either way. I'm just saying that

0:24:28.560 --> 0:24:31.080
<v Speaker 3>this is what they're good at, is kind of drawing

0:24:31.119 --> 0:24:35.720
<v Speaker 3>out what's being left unsaid and making it making it in.

0:24:36.600 --> 0:24:39.760
<v Speaker 4>I think the cultural point that we're at right now,

0:24:40.440 --> 0:24:45.840
<v Speaker 4>where people love to criticize, cancel culture, there's power in

0:24:45.920 --> 0:24:48.399
<v Speaker 4>like the backlash to the backlash. Yeah, so the fact

0:24:48.440 --> 0:24:54.040
<v Speaker 4>that she's done this ad everybody who you know knows

0:24:54.080 --> 0:24:57.480
<v Speaker 4>what's going on in that region says, Gwyneth, what the fuck?

0:24:57.640 --> 0:25:00.560
<v Speaker 4>And then people say, oh, it's just all the work people.

0:25:00.600 --> 0:25:05.560
<v Speaker 4>She can't even do an age, can't even say that strategy.

0:25:05.640 --> 0:25:07.720
<v Speaker 5>It's like, that's that's part of the that's part of

0:25:07.760 --> 0:25:08.240
<v Speaker 5>the market.

0:25:08.600 --> 0:25:11.160
<v Speaker 1>Surely though, there's an element here. Then She's just launched

0:25:11.200 --> 0:25:12.840
<v Speaker 1>Groop Kitchen in the New York We talked about it

0:25:12.840 --> 0:25:14.440
<v Speaker 1>the other week because I said I would love to

0:25:14.480 --> 0:25:16.160
<v Speaker 1>eat one of those salads, and one of our friends

0:25:16.200 --> 0:25:17.800
<v Speaker 1>who lives and works in New York's had me a

0:25:17.840 --> 0:25:21.520
<v Speaker 1>message confirming they were, in fact delicious. Surely this does

0:25:21.760 --> 0:25:24.919
<v Speaker 1>hurt that kind of market New York hipsters who are

0:25:24.960 --> 0:25:28.720
<v Speaker 1>excited about eating Goop Kitchen. Me as a basic, a

0:25:28.760 --> 0:25:32.800
<v Speaker 1>basic person, I'm now like, no, I don't know about

0:25:32.800 --> 0:25:35.320
<v Speaker 1>the salads. Now, Gwynn, I think this is the armstealer

0:25:35.359 --> 0:25:36.720
<v Speaker 1>on the podcast really pushed me.

0:25:38.480 --> 0:25:42.480
<v Speaker 3>I won't have you malign the second trunk Trump administration

0:25:42.560 --> 0:25:44.959
<v Speaker 3>is so different to the first in terms of how

0:25:46.040 --> 0:25:47.800
<v Speaker 3>the US has kind of metabolized it.

0:25:47.840 --> 0:25:49.560
<v Speaker 2>Like the first was the pussy.

0:25:49.240 --> 0:25:51.560
<v Speaker 3>Hats and the outrage and Melanie as I don't care,

0:25:51.600 --> 0:25:54.960
<v Speaker 3>do you coat? And that you know every scandal would

0:25:55.240 --> 0:25:58.760
<v Speaker 3>would bring it a predictable outrage and controversy with it.

0:25:58.840 --> 0:26:02.080
<v Speaker 3>But this administration, people are tired. I think a lot

0:26:02.080 --> 0:26:05.560
<v Speaker 3>of Americans have tuned out of politics altogether, and I

0:26:05.560 --> 0:26:09.479
<v Speaker 3>think they see Gwyneth Israel controversy and they think, I

0:26:09.560 --> 0:26:12.120
<v Speaker 3>just want my rocket salad.

0:26:12.760 --> 0:26:17.040
<v Speaker 4>After the break. Is swimming in the open ocean going

0:26:17.080 --> 0:26:20.600
<v Speaker 4>to be a thing of the past for Australians. Just

0:26:20.680 --> 0:26:23.959
<v Speaker 4>after eleven am on Saturday morning, a thirty five year

0:26:24.000 --> 0:26:26.560
<v Speaker 4>old woman was bitten by a shark while swimming about

0:26:26.600 --> 0:26:29.960
<v Speaker 4>thirty meters from the shore at Sydney's popular Cuji Beach.

0:26:30.359 --> 0:26:34.040
<v Speaker 4>Witnesses say the shark was three to four meters, with

0:26:34.160 --> 0:26:37.040
<v Speaker 4>experts suspecting that it was a great white, which is

0:26:37.119 --> 0:26:41.119
<v Speaker 4>incredibly rare in the area. The woman was airlifted to

0:26:41.160 --> 0:26:45.639
<v Speaker 4>hospital and is currently in critical condition. It follows a

0:26:45.720 --> 0:26:49.120
<v Speaker 4>spate of shark bites earlier this year, including a two

0:26:49.240 --> 0:26:52.760
<v Speaker 4>day period in January where there were four reported shark

0:26:52.880 --> 0:26:57.080
<v Speaker 4>encounters on Australia's East coast, including the fatality of a

0:26:57.119 --> 0:27:00.280
<v Speaker 4>twelve year old boy in Sydney Harbor. But at the

0:27:00.359 --> 0:27:03.000
<v Speaker 4>end of that week. The message to the public was

0:27:03.119 --> 0:27:06.800
<v Speaker 4>very much about the conditions of the water, so we

0:27:06.800 --> 0:27:09.280
<v Speaker 4>were told there were heavy rains in the previous days

0:27:09.640 --> 0:27:13.040
<v Speaker 4>that contributes to dirtier, murkier water, as well as sewerage

0:27:13.080 --> 0:27:17.000
<v Speaker 4>which attracts baitfish and ultimately sharks. That plus the fact

0:27:17.040 --> 0:27:20.240
<v Speaker 4>that it was summer, the warm water temperature that created

0:27:20.280 --> 0:27:24.080
<v Speaker 4>ideal conditions for the bull sharks believed to be responsible

0:27:24.359 --> 0:27:28.000
<v Speaker 4>for those attacks. But this attack on Saturday was unique

0:27:28.040 --> 0:27:30.879
<v Speaker 4>and different. It was clear water, it was winter, it

0:27:30.920 --> 0:27:33.800
<v Speaker 4>was a great white. In the last month alone, a

0:27:33.880 --> 0:27:37.520
<v Speaker 4>thirty five year old man died while spearfishing near Albany

0:27:37.640 --> 0:27:41.480
<v Speaker 4>in Western Australia, a Perth father died at Rotnest Island,

0:27:41.480 --> 0:27:44.440
<v Speaker 4>and a thirty nine year old spearfisher died south of Cans.

0:27:45.240 --> 0:27:50.040
<v Speaker 4>Australia has the second highest number of recorded shark incidents globally,

0:27:50.240 --> 0:27:54.280
<v Speaker 4>averaging twenty two bites per year, and as Julia Baird

0:27:54.320 --> 0:27:57.520
<v Speaker 4>wrote for the ABC back in January, the odds have

0:27:57.560 --> 0:27:59.720
<v Speaker 4>been killed by a shark in Australia is about one

0:27:59.760 --> 0:28:02.880
<v Speaker 4>in eight million, and yet it feels a lot more

0:28:03.080 --> 0:28:07.960
<v Speaker 4>likely right now. Predictably, there are lots of conversations about

0:28:08.600 --> 0:28:12.320
<v Speaker 4>what's going to happen next. This is just such a

0:28:12.359 --> 0:28:18.679
<v Speaker 4>shocking story and so seemingly random and out of the

0:28:18.680 --> 0:28:22.000
<v Speaker 4>blue that there are calls for culs even though we

0:28:22.080 --> 0:28:25.199
<v Speaker 4>know that there's no clear evidence that they work and

0:28:25.240 --> 0:28:28.679
<v Speaker 4>that Great whites are endangered. But there have been some

0:28:28.800 --> 0:28:34.080
<v Speaker 4>interesting suggestions from academic and author Chris peppin nef So

0:28:34.600 --> 0:28:38.160
<v Speaker 4>he actually submitted an op ed to a big paper

0:28:38.440 --> 0:28:43.280
<v Speaker 4>he said, didn't specify which one, with some suggestions of

0:28:43.360 --> 0:28:46.880
<v Speaker 4>what he thinks needs to happen it and it got rejected.

0:28:47.120 --> 0:28:51.560
<v Speaker 4>And he also had some suggestions for Mossman City Council

0:28:51.880 --> 0:28:57.160
<v Speaker 4>after those January attacks, and they were also dismissed. So

0:28:57.200 --> 0:29:02.720
<v Speaker 4>a couple of his suggestions are temp prairie enclosures, so

0:29:02.880 --> 0:29:05.960
<v Speaker 4>when people go to the beach, particularly something like Nippers,

0:29:06.480 --> 0:29:10.160
<v Speaker 4>that there would be an enclosure where people get to

0:29:10.160 --> 0:29:14.400
<v Speaker 4>swim safely. He also said basically for the rest of

0:29:14.480 --> 0:29:17.720
<v Speaker 4>twenty twenty six that people should know if they're swimming

0:29:17.720 --> 0:29:19.280
<v Speaker 4>in the open water, they're swimming at.

0:29:19.200 --> 0:29:19.880
<v Speaker 5>Their own risk.

0:29:20.720 --> 0:29:28.040
<v Speaker 4>And then he had some interesting ideas about shark deterrent technology. Holly,

0:29:28.440 --> 0:29:32.960
<v Speaker 4>you're a beach person used to live at Kuji. How

0:29:33.720 --> 0:29:37.080
<v Speaker 4>has this story changed your idea of getting in the ocean.

0:29:37.400 --> 0:29:40.720
<v Speaker 1>Look, I think, I mean, I don't want to be like, oh,

0:29:40.720 --> 0:29:43.200
<v Speaker 1>we've swim there all the time, but we obviously have

0:29:43.240 --> 0:29:45.000
<v Speaker 1>swum there all the time, and so it does feel

0:29:45.000 --> 0:29:49.280
<v Speaker 1>close to home and it's so traumatic. I just one

0:29:49.320 --> 0:29:51.280
<v Speaker 1>of the things about shark attacks we all know this

0:29:51.480 --> 0:29:55.440
<v Speaker 1>is they strike a very deep cord in people. It's

0:29:55.480 --> 0:29:59.000
<v Speaker 1>a very very primal fear. So although the statistics, as

0:29:59.000 --> 0:30:01.640
<v Speaker 1>you mentioned, Claire, the likelihood of it happening to you

0:30:02.720 --> 0:30:06.560
<v Speaker 1>is small. It's such a traumatic event, and it's not

0:30:06.600 --> 0:30:09.480
<v Speaker 1>only traumatic for the person involved, but for everybody who

0:30:09.520 --> 0:30:13.000
<v Speaker 1>witnessed it, for the brave people who are first responders.

0:30:13.040 --> 0:30:17.360
<v Speaker 1>For like, it's a very deep fear for very obvious reasons.

0:30:17.400 --> 0:30:21.160
<v Speaker 1>I know that the Culgi community is obviously really really rattled,

0:30:22.440 --> 0:30:24.360
<v Speaker 1>that there is a lot of support for people who

0:30:24.360 --> 0:30:27.880
<v Speaker 1>were there that day. The thing that I have found

0:30:27.960 --> 0:30:30.920
<v Speaker 1>really interesting in the changing conversation around sharks is that

0:30:30.920 --> 0:30:32.520
<v Speaker 1>we've got to move on from and I think that

0:30:32.560 --> 0:30:34.320
<v Speaker 1>we are moving on from. You either kill them or

0:30:34.320 --> 0:30:35.800
<v Speaker 1>you don't kill you know, like, you either kill all

0:30:35.800 --> 0:30:40.000
<v Speaker 1>the sharks, make the ocean safe or it's just have

0:30:40.120 --> 0:30:43.280
<v Speaker 1>at it. I think that these discussions about getting more

0:30:43.360 --> 0:30:46.360
<v Speaker 1>sharks smart in the way that some parts of Australia,

0:30:46.400 --> 0:30:48.760
<v Speaker 1>for example, are croc smart or all of these is

0:30:49.200 --> 0:30:53.320
<v Speaker 1>really interesting and important. What pepin Nef said that was interesting.

0:30:53.400 --> 0:30:56.240
<v Speaker 1>So if you know Culdie, well, they used to once

0:30:56.320 --> 0:30:58.280
<v Speaker 1>upon a time in the twenties and thirties, they had

0:30:58.320 --> 0:31:00.240
<v Speaker 1>a shark net, so they had a peer that went

0:31:00.280 --> 0:31:03.200
<v Speaker 1>out and then there was a shark enclosure, and lots

0:31:03.200 --> 0:31:05.960
<v Speaker 1>of harbor beaches still have shark enclosures. And I think

0:31:06.000 --> 0:31:07.800
<v Speaker 1>that the pier was damaged by a storm back in

0:31:07.800 --> 0:31:09.800
<v Speaker 1>the day and the shark the enclosure is gone. And

0:31:09.800 --> 0:31:11.800
<v Speaker 1>obviously now we have nets, but the debts come up

0:31:11.840 --> 0:31:15.000
<v Speaker 1>in April. They are also imperfect. They also catch a

0:31:15.000 --> 0:31:17.920
<v Speaker 1>lot of other animals that aren't the target of the debts,

0:31:17.920 --> 0:31:21.880
<v Speaker 1>so they're not a perfect solution. It feels like the

0:31:21.960 --> 0:31:24.200
<v Speaker 1>idea of returning to enclosures, and he was talking about

0:31:24.240 --> 0:31:26.080
<v Speaker 1>some that are temporary. You can roll them out and

0:31:26.120 --> 0:31:28.240
<v Speaker 1>pull them back in again again. They won't be perfect,

0:31:28.640 --> 0:31:31.600
<v Speaker 1>but that they will give some semblance of safety is

0:31:31.600 --> 0:31:34.920
<v Speaker 1>a smart one. I know that western Australia has a

0:31:35.040 --> 0:31:39.520
<v Speaker 1>government scheme where surfers and fishermen and swimmers who buy

0:31:39.800 --> 0:31:42.480
<v Speaker 1>shark deterrent technology can get it rebated by the government.

0:31:42.520 --> 0:31:46.600
<v Speaker 1>Apparently that's really popular and I think that this awareness

0:31:47.320 --> 0:31:49.400
<v Speaker 1>is what we have to move to because although the

0:31:49.440 --> 0:31:52.040
<v Speaker 1>statistics are small, there is no argument that it is

0:31:52.240 --> 0:31:55.520
<v Speaker 1>that these shark incidents are increasing. Some people don't like

0:31:55.560 --> 0:31:58.680
<v Speaker 1>them being called shark attacks because it suggests that then

0:31:59.240 --> 0:32:02.040
<v Speaker 1>it says suggest shark was attacking. Yeah, and they say

0:32:02.040 --> 0:32:04.640
<v Speaker 1>shark bites, but that they are increasing and there are

0:32:04.640 --> 0:32:06.720
<v Speaker 1>lots of factors to that. Lots of people talk about it.

0:32:06.760 --> 0:32:10.520
<v Speaker 1>Is it rising water temperature, is it overfishing, is it

0:32:10.640 --> 0:32:12.640
<v Speaker 1>a whole lot of different things. Whatever it is, they

0:32:12.680 --> 0:32:15.640
<v Speaker 1>are increasing, not just in Sydney but all over Australia

0:32:15.920 --> 0:32:18.280
<v Speaker 1>and it feels like a conversation that needs to be had,

0:32:18.800 --> 0:32:21.280
<v Speaker 1>This idea of at your own risk. I don't know, Amelia.

0:32:21.320 --> 0:32:25.640
<v Speaker 1>In that video he says that this is America's approach

0:32:25.800 --> 0:32:27.840
<v Speaker 1>generally speaking. Is that did you know?

0:32:28.040 --> 0:32:30.000
<v Speaker 3>I don't quite know what he meant by that, but

0:32:30.120 --> 0:32:33.680
<v Speaker 3>I do think that that point he makes that Australians

0:32:33.680 --> 0:32:38.080
<v Speaker 3>have to reevaluate their relationship with the water and with

0:32:38.160 --> 0:32:43.000
<v Speaker 3>this national pastime really is a confronting one, and I

0:32:43.040 --> 0:32:44.840
<v Speaker 3>think it goes beyond shark awareness.

0:32:44.840 --> 0:32:47.080
<v Speaker 2>I think, as you allude to in the intro.

0:32:47.000 --> 0:32:50.200
<v Speaker 3>Claire, we thought we had a grasp on shark awareness

0:32:50.200 --> 0:32:53.480
<v Speaker 3>in January, we check that box. Okay, no brackish water,

0:32:53.560 --> 0:32:56.560
<v Speaker 3>don't go in after it's been raining, Maybe don't do

0:32:56.640 --> 0:33:00.520
<v Speaker 3>it at dusk or at dawn where shark activity is higher,

0:33:01.840 --> 0:33:04.800
<v Speaker 3>and just be aware that they are. There are greater

0:33:04.880 --> 0:33:07.120
<v Speaker 3>numbers of them now that the water is warming due

0:33:07.120 --> 0:33:11.120
<v Speaker 3>to in all likelihood climate change. So we thought, okay,

0:33:11.120 --> 0:33:13.080
<v Speaker 3>we've got it now, that's how we be shark that's

0:33:13.120 --> 0:33:15.960
<v Speaker 3>how we can be shark aware. But as you pointed out,

0:33:15.960 --> 0:33:21.520
<v Speaker 3>this particular bite and why it's been so shocking is

0:33:22.040 --> 0:33:25.479
<v Speaker 3>it doesn't seem to meet those criteria. It was colder

0:33:25.520 --> 0:33:29.080
<v Speaker 3>water a different shark now, but a colder water, clear water,

0:33:30.240 --> 0:33:33.560
<v Speaker 3>and not at dawn or dusk. So what I think

0:33:33.680 --> 0:33:37.000
<v Speaker 3>is confronting for Australians is the idea that for many

0:33:37.040 --> 0:33:40.000
<v Speaker 3>of us, going for a swim is kind of a

0:33:40.440 --> 0:33:43.680
<v Speaker 3>it feels like a national entitlement. It just feels like

0:33:43.720 --> 0:33:46.520
<v Speaker 3>what we do and we shouldn't have to think too

0:33:46.600 --> 0:33:49.440
<v Speaker 3>hard about it. And it's our birthright. I guess that's

0:33:49.440 --> 0:33:51.040
<v Speaker 3>the word I need to use for it. It is

0:33:51.080 --> 0:33:54.840
<v Speaker 3>so intertwined with our national identity for so many Australians.

0:33:54.920 --> 0:33:59.440
<v Speaker 3>We are a very urbanized society and most of us

0:33:59.800 --> 0:34:04.080
<v Speaker 3>do hug the coast in some way. So I think

0:34:04.520 --> 0:34:07.360
<v Speaker 3>the idea that we have to look at this carefree

0:34:08.239 --> 0:34:11.160
<v Speaker 3>national birth right is something that we now have to

0:34:11.200 --> 0:34:14.760
<v Speaker 3>figure out how to coexist with other creatures that also

0:34:14.880 --> 0:34:17.719
<v Speaker 3>enjoy the water. That just like gets to the heart

0:34:17.800 --> 0:34:21.279
<v Speaker 3>of what many people think it means to be Australian.

0:34:21.360 --> 0:34:24.120
<v Speaker 2>I get why that's confronting. As sensible as it is.

0:34:24.719 --> 0:34:27.280
<v Speaker 1>It's interesting because down where I live on the South Coast,

0:34:27.719 --> 0:34:31.120
<v Speaker 1>big sharks, cold water, et cetera. You know, you're kind

0:34:31.160 --> 0:34:34.120
<v Speaker 1>of aware of that, but they've just installed a shark

0:34:34.239 --> 0:34:38.160
<v Speaker 1>bite kit at our beach and I've never seen that before.

0:34:38.280 --> 0:34:40.920
<v Speaker 4>I think they've done that at I think after January

0:34:41.000 --> 0:34:42.880
<v Speaker 4>they did that at a lot of a lot of

0:34:42.960 --> 0:34:43.640
<v Speaker 4>maybe even all.

0:34:43.920 --> 0:34:46.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so they're being rolled out across New South Wales

0:34:46.160 --> 0:34:48.640
<v Speaker 1>at least. I'm sure the States have something similar. And

0:34:48.719 --> 0:34:51.760
<v Speaker 1>when you first see that, it's a little bit jarring,

0:34:51.880 --> 0:34:54.399
<v Speaker 1>you're like, because it's basically a trauma kit and it's

0:34:54.400 --> 0:34:55.920
<v Speaker 1>attached to a pole near the beach in the same

0:34:55.960 --> 0:34:58.200
<v Speaker 1>way that if you're in var North Queensland there's often

0:34:58.200 --> 0:35:02.480
<v Speaker 1>a jellyfish station. Obviously there's a practical application to that,

0:35:02.800 --> 0:35:06.359
<v Speaker 1>but it's also just this push towards making us all

0:35:06.440 --> 0:35:07.760
<v Speaker 1>a bit more aware.

0:35:08.239 --> 0:35:11.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but also changing our relationship to the water. I

0:35:11.360 --> 0:35:14.440
<v Speaker 3>think that's what Chris is calling for, Chris Peppinneff, and

0:35:14.520 --> 0:35:17.799
<v Speaker 3>I think that's probably why the major newspaper turned him down,

0:35:17.920 --> 0:35:19.160
<v Speaker 3>because we're not ready.

0:35:18.920 --> 0:35:19.400
<v Speaker 2>To hear that.

0:35:20.200 --> 0:35:23.840
<v Speaker 4>But what's scary is that at the same time, this

0:35:24.120 --> 0:35:29.760
<v Speaker 4>is so so so unlikely and so uncommon, and sometimes

0:35:29.920 --> 0:35:34.279
<v Speaker 4>I even in January, I remember, like the information is

0:35:34.360 --> 0:35:40.200
<v Speaker 4>so important about how the oceans work and what kind

0:35:40.200 --> 0:35:42.920
<v Speaker 4>of attracts sharks and all of that. But I do

0:35:43.000 --> 0:35:45.640
<v Speaker 4>worry that sometimes when these conversations come.

0:35:45.520 --> 0:35:46.759
<v Speaker 1>Up, that it.

0:35:48.320 --> 0:35:53.239
<v Speaker 4>Erases the randomness of it, like the fact that this

0:35:53.360 --> 0:35:57.600
<v Speaker 4>woman did nothing wrong, she didn't do anything irresponsible, she

0:35:57.640 --> 0:36:02.880
<v Speaker 4>did not like and it's just a thing that can happen, Buddy,

0:36:02.960 --> 0:36:08.200
<v Speaker 4>is still incredibly, incredibly, incredibly unlikely, and so that idea

0:36:08.239 --> 0:36:11.040
<v Speaker 4>of changing our relationship with the ocean. I'm like, I

0:36:11.080 --> 0:36:14.239
<v Speaker 4>don't know if that's if that's fully necessary.

0:36:14.280 --> 0:36:16.520
<v Speaker 1>But that's what's interesting about this debate, isn't It is like,

0:36:16.640 --> 0:36:20.680
<v Speaker 1>I agree with you, but I feel like I also

0:36:20.719 --> 0:36:24.040
<v Speaker 1>feel like we shouldn't kid ourselves. If when I first

0:36:24.120 --> 0:36:26.480
<v Speaker 1>moved to Australia from England, I thought that every beach

0:36:26.520 --> 0:36:29.160
<v Speaker 1>was full of sharks, right, was that was the perception

0:36:29.200 --> 0:36:30.920
<v Speaker 1>I had? I was like, who would ever go swimming

0:36:30.960 --> 0:36:32.920
<v Speaker 1>in Australia? Like we all know that's where the great

0:36:32.960 --> 0:36:36.040
<v Speaker 1>Whites live? Like we all know that. And then obviously

0:36:36.040 --> 0:36:39.160
<v Speaker 1>I've lived here for thirty years, put near the coast

0:36:39.200 --> 0:36:41.319
<v Speaker 1>nearly all of that time, and you get very, oh, well,

0:36:41.320 --> 0:36:43.160
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't happen. And it used to be all the

0:36:43.200 --> 0:36:44.920
<v Speaker 1>time in a city like Sydney, and I know it's

0:36:44.920 --> 0:36:47.680
<v Speaker 1>different in different places, but people would say there hasn't

0:36:47.680 --> 0:36:51.040
<v Speaker 1>be an attack in Sydney, for you can't say that anymore.

0:36:51.320 --> 0:36:55.040
<v Speaker 1>Like it is happening with increased frequency, without question. And

0:36:55.520 --> 0:36:58.800
<v Speaker 1>I think that that push and pull between not wanting

0:36:58.840 --> 0:37:03.600
<v Speaker 1>to change something fundamentally that's about us, and also being

0:37:03.640 --> 0:37:07.000
<v Speaker 1>aware that the change circumstances of our world have increased

0:37:07.000 --> 0:37:10.479
<v Speaker 1>a risk is a fair enough conversation to have. Of course,

0:37:10.520 --> 0:37:13.279
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't mean that anybody was doing anything wrong. I mean,

0:37:13.320 --> 0:37:16.359
<v Speaker 1>there'll be a lot of conversations already are about in

0:37:16.400 --> 0:37:19.800
<v Speaker 1>this such because for people who aren't familiar with Sydney's beaches,

0:37:20.080 --> 0:37:23.160
<v Speaker 1>Couldie is a very, generally speaking, a very flat, very

0:37:23.200 --> 0:37:26.520
<v Speaker 1>calm beach. It's a bay, and the water that day,

0:37:26.520 --> 0:37:30.080
<v Speaker 1>as you've said, was crystal clear. The footage of this

0:37:30.280 --> 0:37:33.120
<v Speaker 1>alleged to be this shark. Afterwards you kind of going,

0:37:33.200 --> 0:37:35.919
<v Speaker 1>how did nobody do that thing coming? But of course

0:37:36.000 --> 0:37:38.200
<v Speaker 1>it's also winter and the beaches aren't as patrolled as

0:37:38.239 --> 0:37:40.040
<v Speaker 1>theys are, and there'll be lots of questions about that.

0:37:40.600 --> 0:37:43.120
<v Speaker 1>But I think that it's kind of we can't kid

0:37:43.160 --> 0:37:45.800
<v Speaker 1>ourselves that what's happening isn't happening, do you know what

0:37:45.880 --> 0:37:46.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean?

0:37:46.239 --> 0:37:50.880
<v Speaker 4>But for example, probably what we should be more scared of,

0:37:51.080 --> 0:37:55.239
<v Speaker 4>more aware of, is getting caught in a rip for example,

0:37:55.320 --> 0:37:58.000
<v Speaker 4>Like that's a lot more common. But it's interesting that

0:37:58.440 --> 0:38:04.759
<v Speaker 4>the way that our brains were the idea of being

0:38:04.880 --> 0:38:10.640
<v Speaker 4>bitten by a shark is just so terrifying, and so

0:38:11.080 --> 0:38:15.279
<v Speaker 4>it just really gets you that you then think like

0:38:15.320 --> 0:38:18.000
<v Speaker 4>the cost of that is so huge that we kind

0:38:18.000 --> 0:38:20.400
<v Speaker 4>of amplify the probability.

0:38:20.520 --> 0:38:24.160
<v Speaker 3>I think it is changing to Holly's point, like, I agree,

0:38:24.880 --> 0:38:28.719
<v Speaker 3>but things are changing and the conception you have is

0:38:28.719 --> 0:38:31.560
<v Speaker 3>from a prior time. The other thing I'd say is rips.

0:38:31.840 --> 0:38:34.719
<v Speaker 3>At least in New South Wales schools, kids get taught

0:38:34.719 --> 0:38:40.680
<v Speaker 3>about rips in YU one in classrooms and we haven't

0:38:40.719 --> 0:38:43.960
<v Speaker 3>been in denial about the rip dangers, and of course

0:38:44.040 --> 0:38:46.920
<v Speaker 3>that still means that it's an ever present danger that

0:38:46.920 --> 0:38:49.239
<v Speaker 3>we have to be aware of. But kids, we're doing

0:38:49.239 --> 0:38:51.800
<v Speaker 3>a pretty good job I think of educating kids about rips.

0:38:52.239 --> 0:38:54.719
<v Speaker 1>It's interesting about risk evaluation too, is that I mean,

0:38:54.760 --> 0:38:57.600
<v Speaker 1>anyone who spends any time on the coast in Australia

0:38:57.680 --> 0:38:59.239
<v Speaker 1>knows that the shark alarm can go off and the

0:38:59.280 --> 0:39:02.480
<v Speaker 1>surface will stay. So I mean, I know that's a

0:39:02.520 --> 0:39:05.160
<v Speaker 1>massive generalization and I'm not criticizing, but what I'm saying

0:39:05.200 --> 0:39:07.960
<v Speaker 1>is people have their own risk assessments, right, and people

0:39:07.960 --> 0:39:10.000
<v Speaker 1>who are very familiar with the water and spend a

0:39:10.040 --> 0:39:13.160
<v Speaker 1>lot of time in it are sort of more confident

0:39:13.200 --> 0:39:15.400
<v Speaker 1>and aware of certain things. And I wonder if that

0:39:15.440 --> 0:39:17.560
<v Speaker 1>will continue to be the case but for those of

0:39:17.640 --> 0:39:22.120
<v Speaker 1>us who are not water babies as such, like who

0:39:22.160 --> 0:39:25.120
<v Speaker 1>maybe need a little more handholding in what risks are like.

0:39:25.640 --> 0:39:28.320
<v Speaker 1>I think enclosures, I think ocean pools are going to

0:39:28.360 --> 0:39:29.480
<v Speaker 1>be very very busy.

0:39:29.760 --> 0:39:32.279
<v Speaker 3>Yes, except Holly, I hate to say it. At my

0:39:32.360 --> 0:39:36.960
<v Speaker 3>local beach in the shark free enclosure, there was a

0:39:37.000 --> 0:39:38.200
<v Speaker 3>shark recently cited.

0:39:39.080 --> 0:39:39.880
<v Speaker 2>Things are changing.

0:39:40.440 --> 0:39:42.640
<v Speaker 1>At the time we're recording this, we've just found out

0:39:42.760 --> 0:39:45.279
<v Speaker 1>that the woman who was bitten by the shark at

0:39:45.320 --> 0:39:49.279
<v Speaker 1>Cujie on Saturday is Leah Stewart. She's thirty five, she's

0:39:49.280 --> 0:39:53.200
<v Speaker 1>from Cougie, She's a passionate swimmer, she's got a little child,

0:39:53.440 --> 0:39:57.080
<v Speaker 1>and she's in hospital. At the time we're recording this,

0:39:57.200 --> 0:40:00.960
<v Speaker 1>she's still in a critical but stable condition, and I

0:40:01.040 --> 0:40:04.000
<v Speaker 1>know that we're not alone in sending all our love

0:40:04.040 --> 0:40:07.840
<v Speaker 1>and support to her and her family as we're discussing

0:40:08.120 --> 0:40:09.000
<v Speaker 1>this terrible.

0:40:08.719 --> 0:40:13.600
<v Speaker 3>Incident after the break. Have the Beckhams overplayed their hand

0:40:13.680 --> 0:40:18.319
<v Speaker 3>this time? I'm bringing some scarriless silliness because we had

0:40:18.320 --> 0:40:22.000
<v Speaker 3>to have Holly talk about Gwyneth. But another very important

0:40:22.360 --> 0:40:29.520
<v Speaker 3>character in the Holy Universe had a big weekend. It

0:40:29.680 --> 0:40:32.839
<v Speaker 3>happened because Sir David was being honored with a star

0:40:33.000 --> 0:40:35.600
<v Speaker 3>on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and Lady.

0:40:35.400 --> 0:40:38.160
<v Speaker 2>Vicky was there. She was looking lovely in a kind

0:40:38.200 --> 0:40:42.080
<v Speaker 2>of midnight blue dress, would you describe it that way.

0:40:42.000 --> 0:40:45.319
<v Speaker 3>Or at least ten pm blue ten pm blue, And

0:40:45.360 --> 0:40:47.640
<v Speaker 3>she was very funny and adorable in her speech.

0:40:48.440 --> 0:40:49.840
<v Speaker 2>Let's hear a little bit of what she said.

0:40:50.160 --> 0:40:53.960
<v Speaker 6>Growing up in England, the Hollywood Walk of Fame was

0:40:54.000 --> 0:40:57.880
<v Speaker 6>one of those iconic things that you only saw in films,

0:40:58.640 --> 0:41:02.359
<v Speaker 6>a way of immortalizing people who had succeeded in their

0:41:02.400 --> 0:41:07.720
<v Speaker 6>fields and truly left their mark. So naturally, I assumed

0:41:07.760 --> 0:41:10.840
<v Speaker 6>I was coming here today to receive my star for

0:41:11.080 --> 0:41:17.880
<v Speaker 6>my part in that iconic cult classic Spice Wild, the movie.

0:41:19.000 --> 0:41:22.520
<v Speaker 3>She's very funny, Vicky, she Lady VICKI. And of course

0:41:22.560 --> 0:41:25.000
<v Speaker 3>Tom Cruise was there. Of course, I mean I was

0:41:25.040 --> 0:41:27.880
<v Speaker 3>a little bit surprised, but I guess he got the

0:41:28.000 --> 0:41:29.480
<v Speaker 3>Vicams in the Top Divorce.

0:41:29.560 --> 0:41:33.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he and Beckham are bessies. And during the tomcat era,

0:41:33.760 --> 0:41:36.839
<v Speaker 1>and that's when David and Victoria lived in La because

0:41:36.880 --> 0:41:39.680
<v Speaker 1>David was playing for La Galaxy. The four of them

0:41:39.680 --> 0:41:41.880
<v Speaker 1>would hang out all the time with Eva Longoria as

0:41:41.880 --> 0:41:44.680
<v Speaker 1>well and they were always out. Katie and Vicki were

0:41:44.680 --> 0:41:47.799
<v Speaker 1>always out shopping, and Tom and David were always hanging

0:41:47.840 --> 0:41:52.400
<v Speaker 1>out at football games and stuff. And clearly Katie was

0:41:52.440 --> 0:41:55.160
<v Speaker 1>not there on Saturday, but Tom was, and he looked

0:41:55.239 --> 0:41:55.600
<v Speaker 1>very coase.

0:41:55.680 --> 0:41:57.919
<v Speaker 3>We really drawn as to who I would rather get

0:41:57.960 --> 0:42:00.520
<v Speaker 3>in that divorce, because Katie's my star I like on

0:42:01.480 --> 0:42:03.960
<v Speaker 3>but Tom is the last great movie star, so I

0:42:04.000 --> 0:42:04.400
<v Speaker 3>don't know.

0:42:05.120 --> 0:42:07.680
<v Speaker 2>It's a tough one.

0:42:08.040 --> 0:42:10.719
<v Speaker 1>She might have good gossip like behind it, you know

0:42:10.760 --> 0:42:14.319
<v Speaker 1>what I mean, unless he.

0:42:14.280 --> 0:42:16.480
<v Speaker 2>Probably like doesn't drink margaritas.

0:42:16.520 --> 0:42:16.920
<v Speaker 3>I feel like.

0:42:17.680 --> 0:42:21.399
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I know her NDA probably covers post margarita conversations,

0:42:21.400 --> 0:42:24.440
<v Speaker 1>but I would love to try to get around it anyway.

0:42:24.520 --> 0:42:25.520
<v Speaker 2>So David got his star.

0:42:25.600 --> 0:42:28.759
<v Speaker 3>That was lovely, But what happened afterwards is what got

0:42:28.800 --> 0:42:33.640
<v Speaker 3>tongues wagging. Brooklyn has a house in La I refer

0:42:33.760 --> 0:42:36.600
<v Speaker 3>to the Beckham Son and not the borough of New York.

0:42:36.840 --> 0:42:38.879
<v Speaker 2>Brooklyn has a house in la He.

0:42:38.800 --> 0:42:41.920
<v Speaker 3>Also has one in Miami, obviously, but he has this

0:42:42.080 --> 0:42:48.400
<v Speaker 3>sixteen million dollar mansion in this ultra exclusive Truesdale Estates

0:42:48.520 --> 0:42:52.560
<v Speaker 3>neighborhood of Beverly Hills. So just after the ceremony, it's

0:42:52.600 --> 0:42:55.919
<v Speaker 3>still in her lovely pink slip dress. Fourteen year old

0:42:56.080 --> 0:43:00.440
<v Speaker 3>Harper Becks pops over to his house to well, it's

0:43:00.440 --> 0:43:03.480
<v Speaker 3>a bit unclear what to do. She wanted to see him?

0:43:03.480 --> 0:43:07.240
<v Speaker 3>I guess maybe deliver a handwritten note, pick up a mascara,

0:43:07.360 --> 0:43:08.879
<v Speaker 3>perhaps that she left there a year ago.

0:43:08.960 --> 0:43:10.080
<v Speaker 2>We don't quite know.

0:43:10.360 --> 0:43:12.160
<v Speaker 3>But what is clear is that the whole thing was

0:43:12.160 --> 0:43:16.400
<v Speaker 3>caught on camera and then run in page six. So Brooklyn,

0:43:16.480 --> 0:43:18.359
<v Speaker 3>who was not at home but was instead at one

0:43:18.360 --> 0:43:20.960
<v Speaker 3>of his other mansions, he was reached out to for

0:43:21.080 --> 0:43:25.279
<v Speaker 3>comment about his sister's visit, and his rep said that

0:43:25.360 --> 0:43:29.160
<v Speaker 3>photographers were in place as the letter was hand delivered,

0:43:29.280 --> 0:43:34.040
<v Speaker 3>says it all this was choreographed for the cameras. I

0:43:34.080 --> 0:43:39.480
<v Speaker 3>am the emoji with its face in its hands right now.

0:43:39.640 --> 0:43:44.279
<v Speaker 3>How could Victoria think this was a good idea? And

0:43:44.960 --> 0:43:48.480
<v Speaker 3>Harper is fourteen years old? Holly, am I missing something?

0:43:49.080 --> 0:43:52.000
<v Speaker 1>So the reason we know this, as Amelia says, is

0:43:52.040 --> 0:43:55.880
<v Speaker 1>that the paparazzi images of it have been splashed across

0:43:56.480 --> 0:43:59.719
<v Speaker 1>the internet. And we always say we don't do as

0:43:59.719 --> 0:44:02.640
<v Speaker 1>Papa actually imagery, but there it has become part of

0:44:02.640 --> 0:44:06.480
<v Speaker 1>the story because Brooklyn is saying that was not an accident.

0:44:06.760 --> 0:44:10.920
<v Speaker 1>That's what he's saying. And what is kind of clear

0:44:11.320 --> 0:44:14.120
<v Speaker 1>in the Beckham universe is that Harper is moving into

0:44:14.200 --> 0:44:15.280
<v Speaker 1>main character position.

0:44:15.440 --> 0:44:15.600
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:44:15.600 --> 0:44:17.799
<v Speaker 1>We've know she's got the skincare line coming up with

0:44:18.000 --> 0:44:21.480
<v Speaker 1>that's been discussed. She was very prominent obviously at this

0:44:22.040 --> 0:44:26.000
<v Speaker 1>she's I mean, for a start, if it was staged,

0:44:27.360 --> 0:44:29.120
<v Speaker 1>that's kind of terrible.

0:44:29.200 --> 0:44:32.160
<v Speaker 2>Are you seriously still saying if like that was staged?

0:44:32.400 --> 0:44:34.319
<v Speaker 1>Well, do you think so definitely? Do you think one

0:44:34.360 --> 0:44:35.840
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent? Or do you think so. One of the

0:44:35.840 --> 0:44:39.040
<v Speaker 1>way the book, the way that Beckham's will will present

0:44:39.120 --> 0:44:41.480
<v Speaker 1>this side, and they won't say anything publicly, but there

0:44:41.520 --> 0:44:44.960
<v Speaker 1>will be leaks through their reps, is that Harper desperately

0:44:44.960 --> 0:44:47.799
<v Speaker 1>misses her brother. This is the idea, This is the narrative, right,

0:44:48.160 --> 0:44:50.319
<v Speaker 1>Harper was very tight with Brooklyn, as she is with

0:44:50.400 --> 0:44:52.760
<v Speaker 1>her other two brothers who were at the Walk of Fame,

0:44:53.680 --> 0:44:55.919
<v Speaker 1>and that she just wanted to reach out to him.

0:44:56.120 --> 0:44:58.200
<v Speaker 3>There are two signs to me that it was staged.

0:44:58.280 --> 0:45:01.720
<v Speaker 3>The first is that she was wearing, as I mentioned earlier,

0:45:01.840 --> 0:45:04.960
<v Speaker 3>the same pink slip dress that she wore at the

0:45:05.000 --> 0:45:09.399
<v Speaker 3>Walk of Fame event, and the Beckhams know the power

0:45:09.400 --> 0:45:12.080
<v Speaker 3>of dress. If she really wanted to just go there

0:45:12.120 --> 0:45:15.280
<v Speaker 3>and be surreptitious, she might have changed into something less formal.

0:45:15.800 --> 0:45:18.240
<v Speaker 3>But she wanted to be. She wanted everyone to say

0:45:18.440 --> 0:45:21.279
<v Speaker 3>that's Harper Beckham because I just saw her half an

0:45:21.320 --> 0:45:24.480
<v Speaker 3>hour ago at that event where the world's cameras ran, and.

0:45:24.560 --> 0:45:30.400
<v Speaker 4>This poor girl from who lives in England is in

0:45:30.640 --> 0:45:33.480
<v Speaker 4>LA for such a short time and she's using that

0:45:33.560 --> 0:45:35.480
<v Speaker 4>opportunity to go to her brothers.

0:45:35.600 --> 0:45:37.719
<v Speaker 3>The second, the second thing that tells me its stage.

0:45:37.920 --> 0:45:40.320
<v Speaker 3>No one in Los Angeles has to walk anywhere.

0:45:40.360 --> 0:45:40.719
<v Speaker 2>No one.

0:45:41.160 --> 0:45:43.840
<v Speaker 3>The fact that we saw her walking down the street.

0:45:43.880 --> 0:45:46.759
<v Speaker 3>There are no footpaths in Los Angeles because it pulled,

0:45:47.320 --> 0:45:50.280
<v Speaker 3>not walk. So the fact that we saw her walking

0:45:50.360 --> 0:45:53.640
<v Speaker 3>down a street in Los Angeles seems that she wanted

0:45:53.640 --> 0:45:53.799
<v Speaker 3>to be.

0:45:53.960 --> 0:45:56.120
<v Speaker 1>She was dropped off by a car, but not close

0:45:56.239 --> 0:45:58.280
<v Speaker 1>enough to the gate that she didn't have to walk.

0:45:58.640 --> 0:46:01.640
<v Speaker 1>That is interesting, Claire, is this how we do family?

0:46:01.640 --> 0:46:05.640
<v Speaker 1>But like, is there a world where she's texting Brooklyn,

0:46:05.880 --> 0:46:07.520
<v Speaker 1>She's like, I really want to come by and see

0:46:07.520 --> 0:46:10.640
<v Speaker 1>you and Nicola are you home? Crickets? Because they're not talking,

0:46:11.200 --> 0:46:13.920
<v Speaker 1>so she's just like I'm gonna go pop.

0:46:13.719 --> 0:46:18.120
<v Speaker 4>In well what I thought was interesting. And again why

0:46:18.719 --> 0:46:22.239
<v Speaker 4>the kind of the only reason the paparazziiness of it

0:46:22.280 --> 0:46:24.600
<v Speaker 4>all has has become relevant.

0:46:24.520 --> 0:46:27.040
<v Speaker 5>Is because those photos were released.

0:46:27.520 --> 0:46:31.680
<v Speaker 4>And then Brooklyn shared to his Instagram story a photo

0:46:31.719 --> 0:46:34.600
<v Speaker 4>of him in New York and he tagged the location

0:46:34.840 --> 0:46:36.640
<v Speaker 4>like the fact that he was in New York going

0:46:36.680 --> 0:46:41.040
<v Speaker 4>for a run. And so his point, without saying it,

0:46:41.120 --> 0:46:45.000
<v Speaker 4>was like, I'm not even there. They knew I was,

0:46:45.520 --> 0:46:49.960
<v Speaker 4>They knew I wasn't there. And this does add a

0:46:50.000 --> 0:46:56.400
<v Speaker 4>lot of credibility to Brooklyn's long running argument that everything

0:46:56.480 --> 0:47:00.400
<v Speaker 4>his family does is a performance and that it's not

0:47:00.600 --> 0:47:04.799
<v Speaker 4>about they. They don't care about him the human. They

0:47:04.880 --> 0:47:08.960
<v Speaker 4>care about the image of the Beckham family. And I

0:47:09.000 --> 0:47:12.919
<v Speaker 4>think your theory, Holly, that Harper is kind of meant

0:47:12.960 --> 0:47:15.880
<v Speaker 4>to be emerging as the new main character of this

0:47:15.960 --> 0:47:20.720
<v Speaker 4>family is very true because the other the two brothers

0:47:22.120 --> 0:47:25.200
<v Speaker 4>have Romeo and Romeo and Cruse and I think it's

0:47:25.280 --> 0:47:27.799
<v Speaker 4>Cruise in particular, have been a bit like just taking

0:47:27.840 --> 0:47:29.000
<v Speaker 4>a piss out of Brooklyn.

0:47:29.120 --> 0:47:31.520
<v Speaker 1>They have, They've been being a bit harsh about it.

0:47:31.719 --> 0:47:34.000
<v Speaker 4>Yes, they've been kind of posting.

0:47:33.800 --> 0:47:36.880
<v Speaker 1>Just and Cruises a rockstar now side.

0:47:36.719 --> 0:47:42.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, he's a bit cool for Brookie. But I just

0:47:42.480 --> 0:47:48.000
<v Speaker 4>think this was so orchestrated and that it really really

0:47:48.280 --> 0:47:50.560
<v Speaker 4>makes it. I think this looks so bad for the

0:47:50.600 --> 0:47:51.840
<v Speaker 4>Beckham I've heard that.

0:47:51.880 --> 0:47:54.000
<v Speaker 1>I've seen a lot of critiques saying that that they

0:47:54.080 --> 0:47:57.600
<v Speaker 1>overreached that Vicky because everyone always assumes that it's Victoria

0:47:57.600 --> 0:47:59.480
<v Speaker 1>who's the mastermind of this, because of course they do,

0:47:59.560 --> 0:48:01.279
<v Speaker 1>because she's a woman and she's a mother, and why

0:48:01.320 --> 0:48:03.920
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't she be But it could be David for all

0:48:03.920 --> 0:48:07.120
<v Speaker 1>we know. Look, if it was orchestrated, I want more.

0:48:07.200 --> 0:48:09.640
<v Speaker 1>If it was orchestrated, I want Victoria crying at the

0:48:09.640 --> 0:48:12.319
<v Speaker 1>gates of the mansion. I want her holding on to

0:48:12.600 --> 0:48:15.399
<v Speaker 1>the rails of the gate and shaking them and being like.

0:48:15.400 --> 0:48:18.680
<v Speaker 3>Brooklyn, why won't you come to our own walk of frame?

0:48:18.719 --> 0:48:21.800
<v Speaker 1>Thing like maybe harpers to live in her own life.

0:48:21.800 --> 0:48:23.719
<v Speaker 1>Maybe she's making her own rules. Maybe she's like mom

0:48:23.719 --> 0:48:25.239
<v Speaker 1>and dad. I don't care what you say. I'm going

0:48:25.239 --> 0:48:27.000
<v Speaker 1>to see Brooklyn. He needs to know.

0:48:27.520 --> 0:48:29.760
<v Speaker 2>And she just felt like taking a walk down a street.

0:48:29.800 --> 0:48:34.080
<v Speaker 1>In whichever way this rolls out, it's not good for

0:48:34.200 --> 0:48:38.200
<v Speaker 1>them because everyone was kind of it was dying down.

0:48:38.600 --> 0:48:40.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, it was five months since Brooklyn Beckham made

0:48:40.960 --> 0:48:47.760
<v Speaker 1>that famous and earth shattering Instagram series of posts about

0:48:47.960 --> 0:48:50.600
<v Speaker 1>how he felt about his family, including the allegation, of course,

0:48:50.640 --> 0:48:54.360
<v Speaker 1>that Victoria Beckham danced on him at his wedding party.

0:48:54.800 --> 0:48:57.480
<v Speaker 1>That was five months ago. We've had a documentary since then.

0:48:57.640 --> 0:48:58.919
<v Speaker 1>Beckham's got his Walk of Fame?

0:48:58.960 --> 0:49:01.440
<v Speaker 2>But what is he? An actor? Can we just pause

0:49:01.480 --> 0:49:02.560
<v Speaker 2>on that? Why does he have?

0:49:03.040 --> 0:49:05.720
<v Speaker 4>Isn't that ba actually great point? I meant to challenge,

0:49:06.239 --> 0:49:08.280
<v Speaker 4>does David Beckham have a star online?

0:49:08.280 --> 0:49:11.240
<v Speaker 1>I think probably because of his documentary?

0:49:11.480 --> 0:49:14.600
<v Speaker 2>Well, you also buy those stars for yourself.

0:49:14.680 --> 0:49:16.560
<v Speaker 3>So I guess they figured they were going to have

0:49:16.560 --> 0:49:18.840
<v Speaker 3>this big weekend in LA and they couldn't not address

0:49:18.880 --> 0:49:19.520
<v Speaker 3>the issue.

0:49:19.600 --> 0:49:20.040
<v Speaker 2>Is that it?

0:49:20.560 --> 0:49:24.120
<v Speaker 4>I would say, I'm kind of with Victoria that she's

0:49:24.160 --> 0:49:24.840
<v Speaker 4>more deserving.

0:49:25.239 --> 0:49:26.080
<v Speaker 5>I actually think.

0:49:28.320 --> 0:49:31.279
<v Speaker 4>Like, sorry, put all the Brooklyn stuff aside. She was

0:49:31.280 --> 0:49:32.200
<v Speaker 4>this WHTS girl.

0:49:32.680 --> 0:49:33.839
<v Speaker 1>She should be on that.

0:49:33.760 --> 0:49:37.640
<v Speaker 2>Walk you in Sport right now? Is this some moment

0:49:37.680 --> 0:49:38.680
<v Speaker 2>for a heart take from you?

0:49:39.360 --> 0:49:40.600
<v Speaker 5>Pick a ball?

0:49:40.680 --> 0:49:43.239
<v Speaker 1>I feel like we're going to see it. It's really

0:49:43.239 --> 0:49:45.200
<v Speaker 1>funny how any time an English person is in LA

0:49:45.239 --> 0:49:47.360
<v Speaker 1>they're always like, oh did Prince Harry go one of

0:49:47.360 --> 0:49:51.360
<v Speaker 1>the likes. It's like William loves Beckham. Harry didn't go

0:49:51.400 --> 0:49:53.680
<v Speaker 1>to the Walk of Fame. The football and World Cup

0:49:53.760 --> 0:49:56.880
<v Speaker 1>is on, but Harry was in New York. You know

0:49:57.000 --> 0:49:59.920
<v Speaker 1>he was in San Antonio watching the basketball. Okay, I

0:50:00.320 --> 0:50:03.560
<v Speaker 1>he wasn't in the front row. People have been writing

0:50:03.560 --> 0:50:06.520
<v Speaker 1>about that too. Look, BRIT's in America having a hard time.

0:50:06.560 --> 0:50:09.560
<v Speaker 2>But use some sunscreen. That's all I have to say.

0:50:09.640 --> 0:50:11.040
<v Speaker 2>I want to give that Sonny out there.

0:50:11.480 --> 0:50:13.640
<v Speaker 1>I want to give poor old Harper the benefits of doubt.

0:50:13.840 --> 0:50:15.080
<v Speaker 5>I will say, I do think.

0:50:15.000 --> 0:50:15.880
<v Speaker 1>She's only fourteen.

0:50:16.760 --> 0:50:20.880
<v Speaker 3>Why it's calling She is only fourteen, and your parents

0:50:20.920 --> 0:50:23.320
<v Speaker 3>still advise you, at the very least when you're fourteen,

0:50:23.360 --> 0:50:26.080
<v Speaker 3>And at the very least someone didn't say to her,

0:50:26.120 --> 0:50:28.600
<v Speaker 3>if indeed this was all on her own initiative, you

0:50:28.680 --> 0:50:29.000
<v Speaker 3>know what?

0:50:29.080 --> 0:50:29.840
<v Speaker 2>Love Maybe not?

0:50:30.400 --> 0:50:32.759
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, maybe let's do something a bit more low key.

0:50:33.040 --> 0:50:33.640
<v Speaker 5>I will say.

0:50:33.680 --> 0:50:38.520
<v Speaker 4>The sibling estrangement breaks my heart. Like parent estrangement with

0:50:38.640 --> 0:50:47.040
<v Speaker 4>parents is obviously always sad, but siblings. I just think, oh, Brookie.

0:50:46.560 --> 0:50:48.719
<v Speaker 1>Maybe Brooklyn should open the bloody gate to his Maybe

0:50:48.760 --> 0:50:50.680
<v Speaker 1>he should be in LA and he should open the

0:50:50.719 --> 0:50:51.480
<v Speaker 1>gate to his sister.

0:50:51.800 --> 0:50:54.600
<v Speaker 4>I think he needs to call Harper out loud.

0:50:54.680 --> 0:50:57.160
<v Speaker 1>Is that is all we have time for on today's show.
