1
00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:02,400
Speaker 1: This is gem Nation with.

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 2: I spoke on the show yesterday about Kyle Chalmers, who

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:10,800
Speaker 2: said he's sick and tired of the speculation about his

4
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 2: private life and whether there's tension within the swimming team.

5
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,959
Speaker 2: At the Commonwealth Games, he was in a relationship with

6
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 2: Emma McKeon, who is now in a relationship with Cody Simpson.

7
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 2: All three are part of the swim team. All three

8
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 2: swam together or he and Emma swam in a medal

9
00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 2: winning relay, and there's lots of speculation that's it the noodle.

10
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,320
Speaker 2: There was lots of speculation. Why didn't he congratulate her

11
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 2: in front of everyone? Why wasn't he stand next to

12
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 2: on the podium. All these things have been poop pooed.

13
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,239
Speaker 2: No one wants poo poo in the pool because they're

14
00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 2: saying that you know that you stand on the podium

15
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,559
Speaker 2: in the order in which you swam. He did congratulate her.

16
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 2: Everything's fine, And yesterday I said it doesn't seem fair

17
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 2: that he's got to have all this, But since then

18
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 2: it just seems that he's the one who keeps bringing

19
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 2: it up last because he said at one point he

20
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 2: wanted to go home, he wanted to fly home because

21
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 2: he was sick of the speculation was affecting his mental health.

22
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 2: And that's terrible. But he won one hundred meters freestyle yesterday.

23
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:09,679
Speaker 2: That's incredible.

24
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: He's won a gold medal.

25
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 2: And we can't play his acceptance speech because we're not

26
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 2: Olympic affiliated.

27
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 1: With We have no money.

28
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 2: No, can you read.

29
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,759
Speaker 1: The transit? Do the transcript. It's a special you want

30
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 1: me to do it like him?

31
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 2: Just read it.

32
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 1: You know. We got the job done. That's an erl plant.

33
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 1: It's a special time to win. But unfortunately, I think

34
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,679
Speaker 1: it's hard to enjoy the moment when all that has

35
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 1: happened has gone on, that's him speaking. It makes it

36
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: a challenging type. I'm grateful that I was able to

37
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 1: block it out enough. A learning point for everybody, and

38
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: I hope nobody else has gone through what I have

39
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: gone through.

40
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 2: Hasn't breaking his back well, or got his shirt leaves

41
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 2: caught in a den jacket.

42
00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,559
Speaker 1: Or got his little girly burried wire sox caught under

43
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: his heir. I hate that.

44
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 2: Well, It's interesting, isn't it That the worst of the headlines,

45
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 2: and this is the speculation is that swimming gets a

46
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 2: lot of attention some of the other athletes. Actually it's

47
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 2: up their nose a bit because the swimmers get a

48
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 2: lot of attention, and for the first time, the gossip

49
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 2: columnists are involved because of Cody Simpson and Emma and

50
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 2: so sometimes the headlines may not be aren't you amazing?

51
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 2: It might be what's going on is their tension in

52
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,519
Speaker 2: the team, and rather just ignoring it or saying no

53
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 2: and letting it go, he keeps rehashing.

54
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 1: But when you look at Kylie's is not nothing to see.

55
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,239
Speaker 1: He kind of guy. He's got a gi enormous eagle

56
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 1: on his chest. Well, when you get a tattoo like that,

57
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,560
Speaker 1: when you get that much ink on your chest, that's

58
00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 1: that's a sign of what. But certainly a sort of

59
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: don't look at me, that's look at me. Yeah, and

60
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 1: that's not a bad thing. I know dudes with eagles

61
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: on their chests and they're all, look at me kind

62
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: of dudes.

63
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,799
Speaker 2: Well, you do need ego to me kind of dudes. Well,

64
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 2: you do need ego to be a professional swimmer. You

65
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 2: do need all of that, but you need a slightly

66
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 2: thick skin. These headlines aren't that bad saying you were

67
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 2: in a love triangle is everything okay, and it's been

68
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 2: fed now to this point. But even when he won

69
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 2: the gold, he said, oh, it's been really hard. Can

70
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: you leave me alone?

71
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:15,120
Speaker 1: It could be worse. He could get his little sockets

72
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 1: caught up under his heel.

73
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 2: He doesn't know the pain of that, with the worse pain.

74
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 2: It doesn't know the pain of it, or or.

75
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 1: His shirt is stuck under his denim jacket like you're

76
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: dealing with right now.

77
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 2: I'm dealing with it. I'm dealing with it as your

78
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 2: press conference.

79
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: Well, exactly where is it? Eagle on your chest?

80
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:30,560
Speaker 2: Where's my funding
