1 00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:06,400 Speaker 1: Hi, and welcome to another episode of Outspoken. You're joined 2 00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: as usual by journalists Amy and Sophie Torba. Coming up 3 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,760 Speaker 1: on today's episode, the divisive new Instagram account, the captures 4 00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 1: the elaborate measures influencers go to to get the shot. 5 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 1: We dissect the latest goss from the Love Island villa, 6 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 1: and the dating app that allows you to call out ghosters. 7 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 1: But first, Amy, I don't know why I'm leading into this, 8 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,440 Speaker 1: but you have an embarrassing story to share about me 9 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 1: from this. Well, if you thought Sophie hadn't embarrassed herself 10 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 1: enough when she wore her shorts inside out to an 11 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: audi shopping center, this doesn't top it, but it just 12 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,559 Speaker 1: adds to the list of silly things you've done. So, 13 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: we had a meeting with a client on Friday afternoon 14 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: and Sophie's phone just started her alarm started going off. 15 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 1: And Sophie does have a lot of alarms to remind 16 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 1: her to do a lot of things for clients, whether 17 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: it's social media posts or sending emails. So I just 18 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,960 Speaker 1: apologized to the man that and I repeat man that 19 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: we were with, I'm like, oh sorry. Soph always has 20 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: alarms going off, probably to remind her about something work related, 21 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: and Sophie goes, oh, no, actually, it's to remind me 22 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 1: to buy the new Bondaie Sands tan. I nearly died. 23 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: I could not believe that you thought that that was 24 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 1: acceptable to say in a meeting. Now to defend myself, 25 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: it was a Friday afternoon. We were having a very casual, jokey, 26 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: fun chat, so I thought it was okay to mention 27 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:29,480 Speaker 1: and one I also sorry, And secondly, I also thought 28 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 1: he might have seen the message pop up on my phone, 29 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: so I wanted to explain my message to say buy 30 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 1: a new fake tan. I just remind everyone this is 31 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 1: not sponsored by Bondai Sands. This is just how much 32 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: Sophie loves Bondaie Sands. Because last episode, all you and 33 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 1: Kate did was talk so much about the Tan that 34 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: our own mother, who never uses the tan, went out 35 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 1: and bought it for her. So maybe they should get 36 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: onto us, maybe doing the Lord's work there. Well, someone 37 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: who isn't a fan of the Tan that I tried 38 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: this week is Brandon. So this is your boyfriend. For 39 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: those who have this is their first episode listening to Yeah, 40 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,359 Speaker 1: Well on Friday night, I've lathered myself from the new Tan, 41 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,239 Speaker 1: which looks you pay me out all the time for 42 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 1: looking black and green. It looked nice and brown this time. Anyway, 43 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: I put that on. We're getting the car to grab 44 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:22,519 Speaker 1: an ice cream for McDonald's. And what a classy date 45 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: now that you guys live together, that you go on 46 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: and I get in the car and we were driving 47 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: around for a second, and then Brandon's like, oh my gosh, 48 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: I'll tell you one thing about that new ten it 49 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 1: smells ten times worse. I felt like I'm getting high 50 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: from the fumes. So that was his take on it. Well, 51 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: you do put a lot of it on, so I 52 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: can imagine maybe that smell might not be the same 53 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 1: for everybody who uses it a bit more liberally. I 54 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 1: think we should probably move on, though. So what have 55 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 1: you got for us today? On? Well, there is a 56 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 1: new Instagram account that has caught my interest. It is 57 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: called Influences in the Wild, and it's dedicated to capturing 58 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: the elaborate measures people to go to to take the 59 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,959 Speaker 1: perfect Graham. So the account was only created two weeks 60 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: ago and has already amassed more than half a million followers. Well, 61 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: I have to admit I am a new follower of 62 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,920 Speaker 1: this account, and I think it's safe to say Sophie 63 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: maybe the account's number one fan. When we were doing 64 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 1: a little bit of research on this story, I caught 65 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: Sophie laughing at the content on there. I'm going to 66 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: insert a clip of Sophie's reaction to some of the videos. 67 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: Oy's what you saying? Oh fuck? That was so funny? 68 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: Oh fuck? Now, just to put it into context, the 69 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: videos are showing influencers or wanna be influencers out on 70 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 1: the streets taking these sort of cringe worthy photos. So 71 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: I think the one that you lost it at was 72 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: the girl who was trying to balance on one leg 73 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 1: and pull a pose. N It was actually a girl 74 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 1: who was taking a selfie out the front of what 75 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 1: looked like a bakery or some random store, and at 76 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: first I felt really sorry for her, but then the 77 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: selfie just got taken that little extra bit further where 78 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: she was poking out her tongue pointing to the logo 79 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 1: on her shirt. I just lost it. I know in 80 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: Australia we've got a few pages that are similar. So 81 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: in South Australia we have a page called shit Adelaide 82 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: and it doesn't just pay people out for taking Instagram shots. 83 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: It pays just everything out about Adelaide. But there is 84 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: a big section on the sort of boyfriends of Instagram 85 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: of Adelaide. And then there's also this Sydney based site 86 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: Brown Cardigan. Now I'm not as aware about this site 87 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,640 Speaker 1: because I'm more of an avid shit Adelaide follower. But 88 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: I think what's different about this is it's a bigger 89 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 1: pool of people. It seems to be from an American man. Yeah, well, 90 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 1: it was actually started by a well known mean creator 91 00:04:54,640 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: who's called Tank Sinatra. Oh sorry, sorry, a bit like 92 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: Frank started, all right. So anyway, this guy has one 93 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 1: point three million followers on this meme account and he 94 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 1: encourages his followers to send in videos of these impromptued 95 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: photo shoots that seem to happen on the street. And 96 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 1: he was even shocked by the rapid growth of this account, 97 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: and he believes, he well, it's two weeks, isn't It's 98 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,679 Speaker 1: only two weeks and it's nearly got half a million followers. 99 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 1: That's a pretty good effort, regardless of your following before. Well, 100 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: he believes it's gained so many followers because he thinks 101 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 1: that it speaks to something very relatable and satisfying in 102 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,960 Speaker 1: twenty twenty and he said it makes people feel like 103 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 1: they're in on the joke. Yeah. Well, one of my 104 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 1: favorite videos, it shows somebody filming this influencer or want 105 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: to be influencer whoever, at an aquarium and her boyfriend's 106 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: filming her on this camera. She sort of looks up 107 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: at the at the sea creatures above it. This goes 108 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: on for a while and then it flashes to this 109 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: older man sort of out just whimsically looking around. And 110 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 1: it's so funny because it just makes you think how 111 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 1: silly we all must look when we do take out 112 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 1: Insta stories or our instagrams to the older generation because 113 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 1: they haven't grown up with it. Well, I think to 114 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:18,400 Speaker 1: anyone of any age really, people honestly don't seem to 115 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 1: care these days about what they look like in real life. 116 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: They just care about the little squares on their Instagram 117 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: account and don't care about how they got that photo. Well, 118 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: I witnessed that firsthand when I went to Europe last year. 119 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 1: I was shocked at how people did not care what 120 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: anyone around them was thinking. The extravagant levels that some 121 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,919 Speaker 1: people went to to get photos in some of those 122 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: beautiful locations was astonishing. I think at the Colosseum it 123 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: was one of the worst I'd seen in terms of 124 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: people not giving a shit what anyone thought. Also, I 125 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: went to Chenquaterra in Italy and there's this beautiful it 126 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 1: looks like a postcard sort of spot and it's a 127 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 1: IT show. It's right in front of all these beautiful 128 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: colored buildings, and it was so funny because I was 129 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: filming on Snapchat this girl and her boyfriend doing this 130 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 1: sort of like impromptued photo shoot, and my boyfriend was like, 131 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: don't be so mean, like that's mean, and I was like, 132 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: I'm just sending it to my sisters, like this is hilarious. 133 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: And that's the thing. I think we've all been guilty 134 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: of wanting to get a nice photo for Instagram. Don't 135 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: get me wrong, I have been incredibly guilty of that 136 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: in the past, but I think some people push it 137 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: a little bit. I should put this into context. This 138 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: girl was making her poor boyfriend lug this huge camera 139 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: around and she wasn't letting anybody else sit in this 140 00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: sort of prime spot. She was there for about ten 141 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: minutes taking photos, and I thought this is taking the 142 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 1: piss and that's the thing. We all recognize that some 143 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: people doing this like influences. They actually need to get 144 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: a great shot because that is their job. But a 145 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:54,440 Speaker 1: lot of the people featured on this account, I'm getting 146 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 1: the vibe that they that is not their full time job. 147 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: Well see, I'm in two months because I find this 148 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:02,560 Speaker 1: account hilarious, but then I would hate to end up 149 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: on it because sometimes if you're with your friends and 150 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: you are trying to get a good photo and somebody 151 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: filmed you, you would look like a massive dickhead. And 152 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: that's the thing, because we do have shit adelaide here 153 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 1: in South Australia. Whenever I do take a picture with 154 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 1: some friends, I am a little bit on edge and 155 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 1: looking around because I don't want to be featured on there. 156 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: So yeah, I am in two minds about this side 157 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 1: as well, this out account as well. While I do 158 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: think it's incredibly fun, if you are on the other 159 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: side of it, it could be very humiliating. I feel 160 00:08:31,800 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 1: like maybe it could be a good thing because people 161 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: might change their Instagram etiquette in terms of how they 162 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: do things in public. I mean, I don't know. It's 163 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 1: so cringe some of the lengths people will go to. 164 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:47,839 Speaker 1: I'm in such too mind though, because I feel like 165 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: if I was in the mal Dives or one of 166 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 1: these beautiful locations, I would love to get a nice photo. 167 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: But then again I don't. I couldn't see myself going 168 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: to the extreme lengths of pretending to little handstand or 169 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 1: one of those cringe ones. Well. The crazy thing is 170 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: when I was in Europe, of course I wanted to 171 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,880 Speaker 1: have nice photos of the experience. But when you're sight 172 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 1: seeing for so many hours and you're walking the streets 173 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: and it's hot, you don't look that great. So when 174 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 1: I do see people and they look super glam in 175 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 1: their sort of like Trevy Fountain picking all of that, 176 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: I do wonder did they get ready for hours and 177 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 1: then just go there and take the photo. Because it 178 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 1: makes you wonder if the enjoyment of the experience is 179 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: taken away when people were sort of going to that 180 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,800 Speaker 1: extent to get the photo. I do feel like it's 181 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: lost and you're not really living in the moment and 182 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: enjoying it. I have heard some criticism that the Instagram 183 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 1: account is sort of anti women because it's predominantly women 184 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 1: that are featured on the account, but I don't know. 185 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: I think that there are some men on there, but 186 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: it just seems that women are mostly influencers, and women 187 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,439 Speaker 1: are more likely to be posing for photos to put 188 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: on social media. I don't think it's against feminism or 189 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: anything like that to follow this site or to have 190 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 1: a little giggle about it. To be fair, there are 191 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: a lot of men featured on the page as well, 192 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 1: whether they were the boyfriends of the instagrammers or posing 193 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: in photos themselves, So I don't think it is anti 194 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,440 Speaker 1: feminist at all. What about the argument that it could 195 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: be considered bullying if you're out in public and you 196 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: are unaware that these vision's being taken and then it's 197 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,199 Speaker 1: put online to half a million people and you're ridiculed, 198 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: or you know, you do hear of sometimes people losing 199 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: their job or if they are sort of paid out 200 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 1: on such a large scale. I remember there was an 201 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 1: account which shared a video of a couple and they 202 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 1: were kind of dry humping on a beach, and this 203 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: post got so many clicks that the Daily Mail picked 204 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: up on it, and it was really humiliating for the 205 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 1: people involved. And in that respect, I do think we 206 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 1: have to think about it when it is on a 207 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: platform with five hundred it's actually six hundred thousand followers. 208 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: Now there have been one sent in that the people 209 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: themselves have sent in or a friend has sent in. 210 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: I think if you've got the person's consent, it's okay, 211 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: do you know what. I also think it's up to 212 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: the person who runs the site in terms of if 213 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,439 Speaker 1: I was running a site like this and someone emailed 214 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,839 Speaker 1: me and said, hey, I'm in that video and I'm 215 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: getting a lot of online hate, I think that they 216 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 1: need to remove the video because I think some of 217 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,959 Speaker 1: these pages they are done in good fun and there 218 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: isn't meant to be any hurt intended. I mean, it 219 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: is easy just to take videos sometimes of people and 220 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 1: not really think how it might affect them. Well, that's right, 221 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: and if these people are so intent on putting across 222 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 1: this perfect image of themselves online, then it will come 223 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: as a bit of a blow to their ego seeing this, 224 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 1: so it could be quite damaging for them. Well, it's 225 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 1: also raised debate about I suppose giving society and insight 226 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 1: into what goes into some of the influencer's photos, because 227 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: we only really do see the final picture. You don't 228 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: actually see the hilarious effort that's gone into the photo. 229 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 1: So in that respect, I suppose it is kind of refreshing. Yeah, 230 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: it was very refreshing because I do scroll through Instagram 231 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 1: and you see some photos and you're like, oh, fuck off, 232 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 1: how did you get that? And that's why I love 233 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:07,079 Speaker 1: the pages that compare the photos. There was one recently 234 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: that popped up and it showed all the outtakes as 235 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: well as the great photos. Well, I think influencers are 236 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: actually getting on board, and they do have their sort 237 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: of unfiltered accounts, but a lot more is showing I 238 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: suppose their camera rolls and showing how many photos they've 239 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: actually taken to get that one photo. It's funny though, 240 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 1: because to me, when I see all the photos they took, 241 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 1: they all look very similar. I do hope that this 242 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 1: year we do see people moving away from publishing such 243 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: curated content. Well, we were talking about that the other 244 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 1: day when we save, because we were saying, now, I 245 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 1: suppose I don't know if it's to do with likes 246 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 1: being removed or just the way social media is changing, 247 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: but I feel less obliged to like curated photos. I'd 248 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: just be like Oh, it just looks like one big 249 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: add it's or they're just all looking the same to me, 250 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: I think everyone's copying one another's photos and everything's looking 251 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: the same. So it's actually when something stands out a 252 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 1: bit more will tend to like it. Well, back to 253 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: the Instagram account, it does give me some flashbacks to 254 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 1: when we were having to take a photo for our 255 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: second year in business. Yes, oh my gosh, this was 256 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: so cringe weary. So not only were we taking the 257 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 1: photo to put on our Instagram and our business page 258 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 1: because we realized we didn't actually have many photos of 259 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: Sophie and I together to put out on our LinkedIn 260 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 1: or anything like that. And we also had a request 261 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 1: from a paper for a sort of business y photo 262 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: of ourselves for an article that we're going to run. 263 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 1: So we're like, okay, we're going to do this properly. 264 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,520 Speaker 1: We're going to go down to one of those colorful 265 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,959 Speaker 1: mural walls and let's get a couple of balloons and 266 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 1: let's sort of really go for it. Yeah, we ordered 267 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 1: this enormous balloon from Big w and it had all 268 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: this glitter inside. We could barely fit it in the 269 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: car anyway. Amy was so paranoid that I was going 270 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: to somehow let go of the balloon because the balloons 271 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 1: are really heavy, and so just I know something. She 272 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: always seems to like let go of a balloon or 273 00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: that's she's the sort of person that what happened to 274 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 1: She wore her shorts inside out? It at it like anyway, 275 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: we've heard enough of that. You tied it onto my 276 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 1: wrist and I held onto it. Then you grab the 277 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: other out the car. You just walked off and this 278 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 1: balloon gets tangled in a tree explodes in front of 279 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 1: all these kids walking pass What happens? What the real 280 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: story is? Because Sophie liites embellish. I walked out of 281 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: the car and I walked along and the balloon just 282 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 1: just brushed past the twig which popped it. So there 283 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: was this loud bang, and all these school kids were 284 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: walking by and were like confetti erupting in the air, 285 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 1: and we were just like, gee, that's a way to 286 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: really get noticed, isn't it. Yeah, when you're trying to 287 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: be very subtle. But it was so embarrassing because we 288 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:45,440 Speaker 1: were taking the photo on a tripod on the automatic 289 00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 1: set of camera setting, and so we had to keep 290 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: sort of, and it was like across the road from 291 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: the mural, so we had to keep setting it and 292 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 1: then go over and pose, and then all these workmen 293 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: were going by and oh, this photo shoot as well 294 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: as another photo sho the previous PR firm I used 295 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 1: to work out makes made me realize how unphotogenic I am. 296 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 1: So the girls that I used to work with, they're 297 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: all former cheerleaders, and they will be striking these cheerleaders. Yeah, 298 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 1: they're all cheerleaders. They'd be all striking these poses and 299 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: might be standing there not knowing what to do with 300 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: my arms or legs, just looking like a complete idiot. 301 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: That's the thing. Those people that do that are featured 302 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: on this page. They do know how to strike a pose. 303 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: They're not shy. I'm a bit envious of that. I 304 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: wish I need some lessons or something. Well, now onto 305 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:39,120 Speaker 1: the pit and peak of our social media week. The 306 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 1: peak is probably my favorite peak we've ever had on here, 307 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: and it's to do with Jemma Collins, who used to 308 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: be on the reality show TAWI or the only way 309 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 1: I see Towy isn't tewey. Well, it just depends what 310 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 1: accent you have. Now, Jemma hosts a popular podcast in 311 00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: the UK where she answers questions and just gives her 312 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 1: opinions on different things. And she's received a question from 313 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: a fan and I think we're just gonna play it. 314 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 1: It's entirely because it is hilarious. Enjoy. 315 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:13,840 Speaker 2: So the next theme I've had is from Griffin, Hey, 316 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 2: the GC. I like being called the GC. Why do 317 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 2: people call me the GC? It's hilarious. I am a 318 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 2: student and I've been struggling recently with procrastination. My exams 319 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 2: are coming up and I find it hard to focus 320 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 2: on my revision as I can't stop thinking about Love Island. Oh, Griffin, 321 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 2: I've developed a bit of an addiction and I've been 322 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 2: watching clip after clip of Love Island. I'm scared it 323 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 2: would totally disrupt. 324 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: My study in and ruin. 325 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 2: Mike SAMs, please, could you tell me how to focus 326 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 2: and combat my dating show dependency? Griffin Darling, you have 327 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 2: got exams and they're important. Love Island is on catch 328 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 2: up and you can catch up on it at any time. 329 00:16:56,920 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 2: My advice to you would be what does protesst nation mean? 330 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: As well? 331 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 2: You're putting something off so you're like, oh, I'll distract 332 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 2: myself by doing the cleaning, or he's watching Love Island. 333 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 2: I think by procrastinating, for anyone that doesn't know what 334 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 2: it means, it's putting things off. 335 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: Honey. 336 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 2: Concentrate on your exams because you know, if you don't 337 00:17:18,240 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 2: pass your exams, hone, you're not going to get the 338 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 2: job that you potentially could want in the future. So 339 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 2: Love Ireland is on catch up, and you will be 340 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 2: able to catch up. But for now, really channel your 341 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 2: focus onto what's important to you. 342 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,199 Speaker 1: No, I have to say I loved the seriousness of 343 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 1: the way she answered, like it was a real conundrum 344 00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 1: of island. I just love that. Yeah, that was a 345 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 1: serious question, and I just also loved that she didn't 346 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,320 Speaker 1: know what procrastination meant. And then, rather than cutting that 347 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 1: bit out, just thought, oh, well, all other people might 348 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: not know what procrastination means. I just roll it in. 349 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: I love her. I don't know about you, Sophie, but 350 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: I kind of relate to that question. I'm getting so 351 00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: addicted to Love Island, which we'll be talking about a 352 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: little bit further. I suppose now onto the pit of 353 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 1: the week. Yeah, well, the pit for me has to 354 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 1: be the article that Nova shared about Kylie Jenner's tribute 355 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:11,719 Speaker 1: message to Kobe Bryant, so they basically alluded that she 356 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 1: was making the whole situation about herself. And I'm kind 357 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:18,199 Speaker 1: of at a loss to see how she made this 358 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: about herself. Yeah, well, for those who didn't see it, 359 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 1: Kylie posted a tribute to Kobe Bryant, who sadly died 360 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,159 Speaker 1: alongside his daughter and seven other people in a helicopter 361 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 1: crash in la and Kylie posted a beautiful tribute and 362 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,520 Speaker 1: near the end she mentioned that she had actually flown 363 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 1: in this helicopter with the pilot and that he was 364 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: a lovely man. And apparently this is making the sad 365 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 1: news about herself. That is ridiculous. Now onto what is 366 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 1: in our feed this week? And this one caught my attention. 367 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,959 Speaker 1: It is a new dating app called Helium, which allows 368 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 1: you to label people with certain traits to kind of 369 00:18:56,840 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: warn others about their behavior and tell them exactly what 370 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,679 Speaker 1: type of person they are. And it struck me as 371 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: similar to the rating system of Uber eats or airbn beat. 372 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,479 Speaker 1: So basically it urges you to call out people who 373 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 1: ghost you or people who are rude on dates. But 374 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: that thing is though it doesn't seem like it's designed 375 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,920 Speaker 1: to be an app where you actually meet the one though, 376 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,360 Speaker 1: because if people are relying on people saying oh they 377 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,280 Speaker 1: were a great date endorsing them, they obviously want to 378 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: keep dating. Well, I think it's actually to try and 379 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 1: weed out any people on there who were there for 380 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:31,840 Speaker 1: the wrong reason. So you can either rate someone as 381 00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: being cute, chilled, funny, and then it moves on to 382 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: the mean ones. If you're really easy, If you really 383 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 1: like the person, though, wouldn't you be like, oh, they 384 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: were awful? Is it anonymous or does it show I'm 385 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,439 Speaker 1: not one hundred percent sure whether it's anonymous or not. 386 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:47,480 Speaker 1: I think the person who you rate, they'll see what 387 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: you've rated them, But the person flicking through and seeing, 388 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,199 Speaker 1: oh no, but that's the worst thing off the person 389 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:54,920 Speaker 1: that you actually went on the date with. Can you 390 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 1: imagine going on a date and then someone filled out 391 00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: that you were awful and rude and whatever. To be fair, 392 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 1: it'd be quite handy, like these people never get their 393 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 1: connuppance for being a dicka, do they. Well. The other 394 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 1: thing that's been filling my news feed is news that 395 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:12,320 Speaker 1: former Biggest Loser Australia trainer Michelle Bridges was caught drink 396 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 1: driving with her five year old in the car. Now, 397 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 1: this is kind of a sad story because Michelle's come 398 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 1: out to sort of defend her actions, and she's revealed 399 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: that she and the Commando, who was of course another 400 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: character on The Biggest Loser, have broken up and they 401 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 1: of course share their five year old son together. So 402 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: I don't know how I feel about this, because there's 403 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 1: been some support for Michelle, and then you know, in 404 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,439 Speaker 1: terms of people saying they don't think that her dirty 405 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 1: laundry should be aired like this and that she must 406 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: be going through a rough time to be caught drink 407 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: driving with their child in the car. But then I 408 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 1: do understand the news values that she is a well 409 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 1: known person, so of course they're going to talk about 410 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,199 Speaker 1: it in the papers. I'm in two minds about this 411 00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: one as well. Obviously I do feel for her going 412 00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:00,679 Speaker 1: through this breakup, and also I feel like there's a 413 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 1: lot going on in the background that we probably aren't 414 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 1: privy to. You know, it's not always so one sided 415 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:08,679 Speaker 1: in these situations. But then at the same time, she 416 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 1: does take the perks of being in the public eye 417 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,239 Speaker 1: and the advantages, So at the same time, you do 418 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: then have to face the consequences of these sort of things. 419 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,320 Speaker 1: And as you say, it could have been a situation 420 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:20,639 Speaker 1: that ended up way worse with her child in the 421 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: car if she'd crashed. So yeah, I'm in two minds 422 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 1: about that one. On a side note, did you know 423 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 1: that she's worth fifty three million dollars? No? I did 424 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 1: not really surprise me. I read that, I was like, Wow, 425 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 1: what does she get on her money through? Well, I 426 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: think she's got deals like book deals, and then she's 427 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 1: got closed through Big W and all of that kind 428 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 1: of thing. Who knew you close at Big W made 429 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: you so much money? And lastly, the other big news 430 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 1: headline that's been filling my news feed is of course, 431 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,919 Speaker 1: all about Taylor Swift's new documentary, which is set to 432 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,880 Speaker 1: air on Netflix. I'm so excited. This looks amazing. Well, 433 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: one of the biggest headlines to come from this documentary 434 00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 1: is Taylor talking about the eating disorder she had during 435 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: her nineteen eighty nine tour, and it has been received 436 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,280 Speaker 1: well from fans. I mean, at the time, it did 437 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 1: seem fairly obvious to those who followed her closely that 438 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: she had lost a lot of weight, and well, I 439 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:14,200 Speaker 1: think it's great that she's speaking out about it because 440 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 1: she may be able to help a lot of other 441 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,439 Speaker 1: people who might be struggling through the same thing. And 442 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 1: there is some other sad news in the doco. I'm 443 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: assuming it's going to tackle some pretty tough issues with 444 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift revealing that her mum was diagnosed with a 445 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: brain tumor, and I just felt so bad for Taylor, Like, 446 00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: she's obviously got a lot going on for her, but 447 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:37,719 Speaker 1: when you hear about family members becoming ill, it just 448 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: it's horrendous. I do love the fact, though, that Netflix 449 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 1: are producing more programs like this. I really enjoyed Kevin 450 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 1: Hart's documentary earlier in the year, and I'll be interested 451 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 1: to see if hers follows a similar pattern of weekly episodes. 452 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,120 Speaker 1: I think it is a doco series, and anyone who 453 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 1: hasn't seen Kevin Hartstoco should go and watch it because 454 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,879 Speaker 1: it is so entertaining and it does show you a 455 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,640 Speaker 1: different side of Kevin Hart. So I wonder if we're 456 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,479 Speaker 1: going to have a different perspective now of Taylor Swift. 457 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 1: I love how raw she got in the interviews as well. 458 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 1: She was clearly didn't have a sceric of makeup on. 459 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 1: She said the F word as well, which I love. 460 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: That blows my mind. I don't think I've ever heard 461 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 1: her swear. I'm hoping her cats are quite heavily and 462 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:21,119 Speaker 1: as well, they're so gorgeous. Well, apart from Netflix, my 463 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: nights have been spent watching Love Island UK. I'm hooked. 464 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: Of course, we did go through the first episode of 465 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: Love Island in a previous podcast, so if you do 466 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,959 Speaker 1: love the show, go back and hear our first thoughts 467 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 1: on all the Love Island contestants. But this show is 468 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 1: on every single night. It is hard to keep up 469 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 1: on if you have a life. Not saying I don't 470 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 1: have a life, but I have watched every single episode 471 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 1: so fast, so I'm up to date. So we thought 472 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,120 Speaker 1: it might be a good idea for those who might 473 00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: be a bit behind to get up to speed with 474 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 1: the series. Well, the most explosive thing that's set to 475 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 1: happen this week is Leanne slamming Mike. Now, I as 476 00:23:58,040 --> 00:23:59,919 Speaker 1: well have a lot of viewers were taken back by 477 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 1: little snippet we saw, and in it she confides in 478 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:04,720 Speaker 1: the girls that she feels like she's got a bit 479 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: of ick factor going on for Mike. And just to 480 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:10,120 Speaker 1: add contexts, Leanne and Mike have been partnered since day 481 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: one of Love Island, and Mike is the lovable police officer, 482 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,399 Speaker 1: and I suppose that's been a bit of speculation about 483 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,720 Speaker 1: whether he is fake. I know our mom who's listening 484 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: loves him, but I got a strange vibe. And of 485 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 1: course we saw last week Shana questioning how legit he was, 486 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: so in a challenge, she was asked to kiss the 487 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 1: boy that she or sorry. She was asked to kiss 488 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: the person who she thought was playing the game the most, 489 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: and she kissed Mike. So whether that's got into Leanne's 490 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 1: head or not, or she's just feeling the gross factor, well, 491 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 1: judging by the little snippet we saw, she ended by saying, 492 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 1: I don't want to be around the boy. Shut up, 493 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 1: shut up, shut up. So what I gauge from that 494 00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: is that he must talk a lot of shit. He 495 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,199 Speaker 1: does seem quite full on. That's why I was. I 496 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: did like him initially, but I was worried that maybe 497 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,120 Speaker 1: he was being a little bit fake because they've only 498 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:03,200 Speaker 1: known each other for a few weeks and he does 499 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: seem very full on with the compliments. That's the beauty 500 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: of this show, though, I feel like we see the 501 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 1: evolution of the characters on there. Similarly with Shawnee. Now 502 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: sure Nicee, no Savi, you get told, right, am I 503 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 1: saying it Shawneee. So it's not Shawnee, it's Shawnee Okay. 504 00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: I don't see any difference in that. But it's Sean Shawnee. Okay. Well, 505 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,920 Speaker 1: she is now becoming a bit of a fan favorite 506 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,679 Speaker 1: after she saved Naz in that elimination. Yeah, so for 507 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:34,439 Speaker 1: those who didn't see sew Niece, she has been a 508 00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,439 Speaker 1: bit unlucky in love in the villa, which always means 509 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 1: that people are going to feel a little bit sorry 510 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:41,679 Speaker 1: for you on the outside world. So it does actually 511 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: work in their favor a bit in terms of if 512 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: they're looking for fame and fortune. So shaw Niece, she 513 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 1: started to like Connor with a g who was the 514 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: big tall guy that came in and he was ticking 515 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: all of her boxes the fact he was taller than 516 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 1: Naz and he was dark and good looking. Anyway, new 517 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,679 Speaker 1: girl Rebecca, who I do not like, a lot of 518 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,400 Speaker 1: people don't like her. She came into the house during 519 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 1: their sort of villa pleasing villa into the villa when 520 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: they were doing their sort of not stripped teas, but 521 00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 1: they're sort of dancing competition, and she just rubbed all 522 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 1: the girls up the wrong way and she set her 523 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:20,359 Speaker 1: sights first on Callum, which Seawna quickly got rid of, 524 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: like extinguished that fire, and then she decided she wanted 525 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: to get to know Connor with a G. So of 526 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: course your niece was left in the lurch again. And 527 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 1: then this new guy comes in and suddenly Rebecca picks 528 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 1: him in the ceremony and then sure niece has to 529 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 1: pick between Connor with a G that she likes and NAS, 530 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 1: and she won all the girl's votes because she basically, 531 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,199 Speaker 1: you know, stuck the finger up at Connor with a 532 00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 1: G who ignored her. When Rebecca came in and chose 533 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,879 Speaker 1: fan favorite Nas to couple up with in a friendship, 534 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 1: I really loved that moment because so many women would 535 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: have picked the guy that they liked despite him kind 536 00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 1: of mugging her off for a few days. So I 537 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 1: thought that was great that she saved NAS. Great for 538 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: her reputation on the show as well well. It was 539 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 1: the right decision because he had told Rebecca that he 540 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 1: was only interested in her, and so all it would 541 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 1: have done was allowed Rebecca to play off these two 542 00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,439 Speaker 1: guys and then ultimately leave Shawnice with nobody to partner 543 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 1: up with. Yeah, you're right. Something that is wonderful that 544 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: is happening this week is that Nas has his first 545 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 1: date finally, and so the new islander is Demi, and 546 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,239 Speaker 1: she does seem to have genuine eyes for Naz. So 547 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,400 Speaker 1: she said in her little profile that she just wanted 548 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: to squeeze him and that she thinks he's so lovely. 549 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 1: She's pretty clever, because my understanding is Nas is pretty 550 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,159 Speaker 1: popular on the outside. He kind of reminds me a 551 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: bit of Doctor Alex from a few series ago in 552 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: terms of he is a catch, but there's just nobody 553 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 1: in the villa that sort of sees him in that 554 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 1: way other than just as a friend. So it would 555 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 1: be quite interesting to see if he does like this girl. 556 00:27:56,080 --> 00:28:00,159 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. On another note, have you seen they 557 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,560 Speaker 1: that looks like Justin Bieber? Yeah, I was just about 558 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,439 Speaker 1: to bring him up. He is a dead ringer. Actually, 559 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 1: I think he's said a lot of looking at than 560 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: Justin Bieber. He's more built than Justin Bieber. His ex recently, well, 561 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 1: I used to the term X quite loosely. Someone who 562 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:20,919 Speaker 1: used to sleep with for five years has come for 563 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,840 Speaker 1: five years, so I don't know that might be an ex. Well, 564 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,160 Speaker 1: to give background, he first met this woman when they 565 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,880 Speaker 1: were when she was eighteen. She was on a holiday 566 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: in Turkey and she introduced herself to Luke because she 567 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 1: did think he was Justin Bieber. So since then, since 568 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: this little holiday, the pair have stayed in contact for 569 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: five years, and she says their relationship has consisted of 570 00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 1: them exchanging explicit messages slash photos. So I mean it's 571 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: safe to say it's not really a girlfriend boyfriend the 572 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: situation they live quite far away from each other. Well yeah, 573 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 1: she said that she felt like the relationship only didn't 574 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 1: go further because of the distance. Anyway, she seemed like 575 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: a bit of a tainted, scorned lover. Gosh, that would 576 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 1: be pretty rough, wouldn't it If he had the hots 577 00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: for this guy that looks like Justin Bieber and then 578 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 1: he rocks up on Love Island, she'd be like, oh 579 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 1: my gosh. Well, basically, she said has called him a 580 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:18,720 Speaker 1: cheaterh being on Love Island, No, because she realized that 581 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,720 Speaker 1: the explicit images he was sending her, he'd put a 582 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: caption on the photos, So he was just sending these 583 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: blanket caption photos out to all these different women. But 584 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if that makes him a cheater if 585 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 1: he was never in a relationship, so it might make 586 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:34,239 Speaker 1: him just a bit of a sleezebad. I think it 587 00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,840 Speaker 1: makes her a little bit fame hungry, maybe a little 588 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: bit deliverib It would be so hard if you were 589 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 1: in the villain, everybody coming out and saying all this 590 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: stuff and you couldn't defend yourself. Well, this girl apparently 591 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 1: wanted to bring it to the attention of the public 592 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 1: because she felt like Jess, one of the twins, was 593 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: being played by him because after her after Jess and 594 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,800 Speaker 1: Luke's first date, Jess was saying that she feels like 595 00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 1: he's such a genuine guy, not a player at all. 596 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 1: I'm sure ninety nine percent of these guys are players 597 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 1: that have gone in, but you never know, do you, 598 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 1: Because I feel like the good thing about this show 599 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 1: is some of these guys they probably would sleep around 600 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: on the outside, but then they finally get the opportunity 601 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: to spend time with these women and they might actually 602 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 1: grow feelings for them. So yeah, I don't know how 603 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 1: a bit feel about that. Something else that's gone on 604 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: in the Villa which is quite controversial is Sophie and Connor. 605 00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: So Connor and Sophie were voted the least popular couple 606 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 1: in the Villa. That surprised me because they are the 607 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 1: ones who actually have a genuine relationship in there. I 608 00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 1: don't know. I feel like people might like Sophie, but 609 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: there's something about Connor that I just don't like. He 610 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: does seem very controlling, you know, he's very jealous as 611 00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,920 Speaker 1: in the thing is. I could kind of see where 612 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: he was coming from because in a recent episode, Sophie 613 00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 1: was going on in front of him how good looking 614 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: she thought the new guy justin Bieber Guy was. She 615 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 1: did stare him up a bit. But I was thinking, 616 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 1: I'll put myself in those shoes, And I was thinking 617 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 1: if the guy I was coupled up with was like, ah, 618 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 1: she's so hot, and look at this and look at that, 619 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:11,320 Speaker 1: you just be like, what the hell is wrong with you? Like? 620 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:14,120 Speaker 1: How is that impressing me? Had to stir? I don't know, 621 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 1: I could kind of see where he's coming from. But anyway, 622 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,840 Speaker 1: they're in the bottom two, and so the other islanders 623 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 1: had to make the decision of what to send one 624 00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: of them home, and so they sent Connor home, and 625 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:30,000 Speaker 1: so Sophie stays. I wondered why she didn't leave with him. 626 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,400 Speaker 1: I think it's fairly obvious why she didn't stay with him, 627 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 1: that it's only very early days in the villa. But 628 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 1: the whole point of the show is you have to 629 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 1: stay partnered up. So if she had true feelings and 630 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 1: wanted to meet the one and she thought Callum possessed 631 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:44,160 Speaker 1: some of those qualities, I don't know. But she's a 632 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: twenty one year old girl. That's clearly not the aim 633 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 1: of being Oh god, is she twenty one? The aim 634 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:50,800 Speaker 1: of being on the show is to build your profile 635 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: and to she's not the aim of the show. That's 636 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 1: that's the aim of her on the show. No, I know, 637 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: but I'm saying that they all go in there and 638 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 1: say they're genuine looking for love, but then the person 639 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: that you're coupled up with leaves and you don't leave. 640 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's kind of like Lucy last year 641 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 1: when she didn't leave for Joe, Yeah, exactly. Anyway, I 642 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: did read an interesting piece. It was written by an 643 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:18,400 Speaker 1: English journalist and they were talking about how they think 644 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 1: Love Ireland really needs to have a revamp and start evolving. 645 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 1: You did read me bits and pieces, so he was 646 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 1: saying that they do all the same challenges. But I 647 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't even think it's about the challenges. 648 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 1: It's about the people's personalities and they're all different, so 649 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 1: I don't mind the format. He did say it needs 650 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 1: a revamp, but he also pointed out that it has 651 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 1: changed because it now has a more family friendly audience. 652 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: So this is a show that you're going to sit 653 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 1: down in England with your parents and watch. And in 654 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:50,320 Speaker 1: the first series all the couples were jumping into bed 655 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:53,479 Speaker 1: together and sleeping with one another. But for the past 656 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,800 Speaker 1: three seasons, i'd say none of the couples have had sex, 657 00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: and his argument is that it has led to couples 658 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,080 Speaker 1: not being as genuine. I don't know if I agree 659 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 1: with this journalist, because I don't necessarily think that because 660 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 1: the Islanders aren't having sex that makes their relationships any 661 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: less legitimate, because I feel like the problem is that 662 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 1: most of these people just go and have sex out 663 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:22,440 Speaker 1: when they're out, and then their relationships are meaningless. But 664 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:27,680 Speaker 1: they're actually they're actually forming meaningful relationships and really getting 665 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 1: to know each other. And it's not just based on sex. 666 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:32,920 Speaker 1: It's actually based on whether they get along and their personalities. Yeah, 667 00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 1: we're talking about sex on reality shows. I heard an 668 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: interesting podcast with Laura Byrne recently, and she, of course 669 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 1: is engaged to Maddi J at the moment, and they 670 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: have a child together, and she said she felt like 671 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 1: the fact that they didn't sleep together for the first 672 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 1: couple of months of their relationship that it made their 673 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:52,320 Speaker 1: bond even stronger and their relationship better because Maddi J 674 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 1: kind of had to work for and wait for it 675 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 1: and it made it more special. So there is that, 676 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 1: you know, argument as well. Well. I am looking forward 677 00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 1: to seeing which couples actually do stay together, because there 678 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 1: has been criticism that a lot of them don't. And 679 00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 1: I think if you look back Tommy and Molly May, 680 00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:11,040 Speaker 1: I think they're one of the only couples that have 681 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: actually stayed together and they didn't even win Amber one 682 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: and A. That's incorrect. Amy Mora and Crotez are still together. 683 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 1: Oh No, but I know, but I'm just saying they're 684 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: one of the only couples and if you look at 685 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: Amber and Greg, everyone knew they weren't going to stage. 686 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: It was a joke that she won. I'm sorry, Molly 687 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: and Tommy well the outright favorites and should have hands 688 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 1: down one that show. If anyone is looking for some 689 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 1: YouTube content to tune in to, go look up Molly May. 690 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 1: She was of course a YouTuber before she went on 691 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:44,839 Speaker 1: Love Island UK and gosh, I'm loving it. They went 692 00:34:44,880 --> 00:34:47,680 Speaker 1: to the Bahamas her and Tommy. I think her content 693 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,439 Speaker 1: is quite good. It's quite real and a bit raw, 694 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: so check that one out. Now, this might be an 695 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,560 Speaker 1: unpopular opinion. Yeah, but this journalist in the article also 696 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 1: was calling out the fact that they think that he 697 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,960 Speaker 1: thinks the bridge pool of models who's running dry? If 698 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:05,799 Speaker 1: this is the best specimens we've got this year, well, 699 00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 1: if you do compare the current Islanders to previous series, 700 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 1: if we're looking at a hot scale, you've got sort 701 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,840 Speaker 1: of your Maura Higgins and yeah, Alex Bowen at number 702 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 1: ten on the hot scale. I'd say that some of 703 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: them are more a seven, so they're still hot. That 704 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,919 Speaker 1: they said the new Justin Bieber who came in. Yeah, 705 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 1: he's a ten on the scale. I have to say, 706 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 1: so maybe they just want to keep the hotties till 707 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 1: the end and I trickle them through. I must say 708 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 1: that Leanne is stunning. She could be well is she No? 709 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: I don't think she's a model, but she could be 710 00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:41,000 Speaker 1: a model. She's stunning looking. But I don't know, I do. 711 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 1: I think the best of the first lot was Callum, 712 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 1: but he's still one of those kind of, you know, 713 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 1: your average kind of English guy. I feel like I 714 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:51,800 Speaker 1: never really rated him. I don't know if it was 715 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:56,360 Speaker 1: just his personality. But obviously they're all extraordinarily good looking. 716 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:59,359 Speaker 1: But as you say that the talent pool is got 717 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 1: is what's going on the ridiculous Love Island hot scale, 718 00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 1: which is Maura Higgins at the top. Well that's probably 719 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,040 Speaker 1: all we have time for today. Thank you so much 720 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: for listening to the episode.
