Outspoken covers all things 6 00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:20,640 Speaker 2: reality TV, influencers, entertainment, and issues facing women. 7 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:22,919 Speaker 1: That is so fatch. 8 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 2: Thank you, Welcome back to Outspoken. Now Friday's are normally 9 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 2: our Christmas episode, but moving forward, we're going to do 10 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,239 Speaker 2: a little bit of a mash up for our listeners, 11 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,159 Speaker 2: so we're of course still going to be in the 12 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 2: festive spirit and talk all things Christmas. However, we're also 13 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 2: going to be giving our influencer updates and news, so 14 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:50,480 Speaker 2: we really hope you enjoyed this format moving forward. Now, 15 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,600 Speaker 2: we just wanted to start the show by giving a 16 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 2: little bit of a shout out to our beautiful listener 17 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 2: and friend Emily Now. Last week she had what we 18 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 2: hope is her final surgery, and she's been an absolute 19 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 2: trooper having undergone four prior surgery, so we really wish 20 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 2: her a speedy recovery and send lots of love her way. 21 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 2: We also wanted to share how excited we are for 22 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,960 Speaker 2: friend of the show, Courtney Mangan, who last week announced 23 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 2: that she is cancer free after her cancer treatment worked. 24 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 2: Now the treatment had a thirty percent chance of working, 25 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 2: so it is extremely exciting news. And while she does 26 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,279 Speaker 2: have a journey ahead of her, we're just so happy 27 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 2: for her. It's a complete Christmas miracle. We actually were 28 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 2: having a break in between recording last week when we 29 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 2: saw the news pop up, and my eyes were just 30 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 2: filling with tears when I saw the happy news. We 31 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,960 Speaker 2: actually interviewed Courtney on the show last year about her 32 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:39,759 Speaker 2: Christmas traditions and it. 33 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: Was such a fun chat. 34 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 2: So I'll put that episode in the show notes for 35 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 2: those of you who want an extra Christmas fix. Just 36 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 2: on the topic of Christmas. Now, O, Kate, you had 37 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 2: a bit of a nightmare experience with your tree. Oh, 38 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 2: I'm getting flashbacks to that horrible moment. So I had 39 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 2: everyone over at my house to decorate the tree. 40 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: It was really nice. 41 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 2: We had a roast dinner, very Christmasy, and we had 42 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 2: just finished putting the last decorations on and we're having 43 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 2: dessert and I'd made everyone cinnamon buns. So I was 44 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 2: stressing a dessert that takes a long time, and I 45 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 2: was looking forward to sitting down and admiring the Christmas tree. However, 46 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 2: just as I was serving up the last plate, I 47 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,360 Speaker 2: walked out, and for some reason, Sophie had just walked 48 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 2: past his tree at that moment. ZO No, what happened 49 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 2: was we were going to sit down after handing out 50 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 2: everyone's plates of dessert, and we noticed that all the 51 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 2: ballble boxes were still on the couch. So I was 52 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 2: helping you pack away all of the stuff, and then 53 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 2: I literally went to grab a box and behind me, 54 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 2: the Christmas tree just collapsed. I literally thought that something 55 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 2: had gone through the window because there was this huge smash. 56 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 2: It kind of reminds me being on Lampoon's Christmas vacation 57 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 2: when the tree catches a lie Like it was one 58 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 2: of those moments that you were like, I cannot believe 59 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 2: this has just happened. It's pretty funny because Kate and 60 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 2: I both literally felt like crying because Kate thought it 61 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,720 Speaker 2: was my fault. She thought that I'd backed into the tree. 62 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 2: So I felt like crying and was embarrassed, and for 63 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,799 Speaker 2: some reason, you were really embarrassed about it yourself. Yeah, 64 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 2: but Sophie, I never blamed you or anything. I just 65 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 2: secretly thought perhaps Sophie nudged it and it was your fault, 66 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 2: but there was no blame. I think we just were 67 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 2: both quite shaken up by the events. Because also when 68 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 2: you hear a crash, you don't know which decorations have broken. 69 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: And I have a lot of fancy decorations from bed 70 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 2: bath and table that I got on sale that were breakable. 71 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:25,959 Speaker 2: And it was so sweet because my sister in law 72 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 2: will soon to be sister in law, Pip was over 73 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 2: at the time, and the next day she was so sweet. 74 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 2: She came and brought me baubles from her tree because 75 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 2: she felt so bad for me. I actually can believe 76 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 2: the next day when you guys said that you were 77 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 2: embarrassed about the tree falling over it, because I was like, 78 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 2: it wasn't I didn't. I don't think it's an embarrassing thing. 79 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 2: I think it's more it was more funny. And then 80 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 2: it was the only time the boys jumped up to 81 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 2: actually do something with the tree. Yeah, And then they 82 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 2: were suddenly like experts on the situation. No, you need 83 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 2: to move more into the pots, Like where were you 84 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 2: when we were putting the tree up? Do you know 85 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 2: what though, it was pretty lucky because your puppy was 86 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 2: just roaming around. Imagine if been crushed by the tree. 87 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 2: That would have put us off real Christmas. I can't 88 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 2: even think about it. 89 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 3: Louis my tree, So what's the matter with you? 90 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 2: Look what you've done on my tree. Tammy Henbury has 91 00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,039 Speaker 2: announced she and her fiance Matt Paul are expecting their 92 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 2: first baby together. The news comes just two weeks after 93 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 2: the couple shared their romantic engagement news. Now, Kay, when 94 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 2: we covered the proposal two weeks ago, we did discuss 95 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 2: the rumors that were circulating that the couple were pregnant. 96 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 2: Now those rumors were in fact true. Yeah, so it 97 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 2: does appear that Tammy was pregnant when Matt proposed. And 98 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 2: it just proves how much people can really contort their 99 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 2: bodies in photos on Instagram. And it made me think 100 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 2: about all those nineties TV shows where they made women 101 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 2: wear big overcoats and hold handbags in front of their stomachs. 102 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,559 Speaker 2: So it really is amazing to see how far we've come. 103 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 2: I suppose influencers do have an ace up their sleeves 104 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 2: in terms of being able to bank pre baby bump 105 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 2: content and sharing it to get followers off the scent 106 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 2: that they're pregnant. So but it is funny because when 107 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 2: you go back and look at the engagement announcement photos, 108 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 2: Tammy is photographed from the back, and at the time, 109 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,119 Speaker 2: I just assumed it was to show off her famous ass, 110 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 2: but perhaps it was to conceal HS but perhaps it 111 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 2: was to conceal a tiny baby bump. Now I did 112 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 2: go back and have a look at the video as well, 113 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 2: because a lot of people mentioned that Tammy was wearing 114 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 2: a very skin tight outfit, and she was wearing a long, 115 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 2: high waisted, skin tight skirt and a kind of bikini top, 116 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 2: and I was trying to see if you could see 117 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 2: any hints of a baby bump, but really I couldn't. 118 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 2: I feel like she must be really good at sucking 119 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 2: in her baby bump like Sarah's day, or perhaps she 120 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: wasn't showing at that time. I feel like We've got 121 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 2: to talk about the baby announcement video. And I'm assuming 122 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 2: that the same videographer who shot the proposal also shot 123 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 2: the pregnancy announcement because they did have a very similar 124 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 2: vibe to them. So Tammy shared the video on Instagram 125 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:01,559 Speaker 2: with the caption our hearts of so in the video, 126 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 2: Tammy is filmed from behind and we see her walking 127 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 2: through her very lavish backyard that has waterfront views. Now 128 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 2: Tammy flips her long blonde hair as she walks towards Matt, 129 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 2: who embraces her. The camera then pans around and shows 130 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 2: Matt cradling Tammy's baby bump. Now Tammy's children she shares 131 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 2: with Rhyese Hawkin's, who are Saskia and Wolf, then run 132 00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 2: into shot and cuddle her, and the video closes with 133 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,880 Speaker 2: Matt kissing Tammy and of course cinematic gold there and 134 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 2: of course the family are all color coordinated. So Tammy 135 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 2: wore a figure hugging dress which she exposed her pregnant stomach, 136 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: and Matt and her kids were also wearing black. Do 137 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 2: you know it's funny because I do all the videography 138 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 2: work at our business, You know that that would have 139 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 2: had to have been filmed so many different times to 140 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 2: get it right. Yeah. Well, I kind of actually preferred 141 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 2: the second video Tammy shared because that video, while it 142 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 2: was very heartwarming, was obviously very produced. Whereas on Wednesday, 143 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 2: she shared a montage video of her telling Matt amongst 144 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 2: her family and friends that she was pregnant. So the 145 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,479 Speaker 2: camera was positioned in her dressing room and she tells 146 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 2: Matt that she's pregnant, and he looks to be in 147 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 2: complete disbelief. 148 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: He kept saying. 149 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 2: No, no, you're joking. Henny looked very happy. This response 150 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 2: then continued on when she told the rest of her 151 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 2: family and friends. So Tammy told Saskia that there was 152 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 2: a baby and her tummy and she responded, no, there isn't. 153 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 2: I did really like how Tammy also told her friends 154 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 2: because she did that little trick where the person's pretending 155 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 2: to take a photo but's actually filming, and the friend 156 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 2: goes say Tammy's pregnant, and then all the friends are 157 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 2: just like what and they're all screaming like no, no, 158 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 2: you can't be. So it was really nice to see 159 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 2: the very genuine reactions from her friends and family. It's 160 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 2: actually crazy that some of the videos that aren't shot 161 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 2: very well do so much better than the professionally film 162 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 2: stuff on social media. Well, it's because they're genuine. You 163 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 2: actually feel like you're a fly on the wall and 164 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 2: you're part of the conversation. When it's all a bit 165 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: too produced, it just seems a bit fake and over 166 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 2: the top. Yeah. Well, now a lot of people have 167 00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 2: been commenting that Tammy was pregnant when Matt proposed. Do 168 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 2: you guys think that should even be a part of 169 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 2: the discussion at the moment. I don't know. I always 170 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 2: feel awkward when I hear people discussing it because it's like, Oh, 171 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 2: it's as if he only proposed because she was pregnant, 172 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 2: when that's he probably was planning on doing it regardless. Yeah, 173 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 2: I feel like it's an internalized thing for a lot 174 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,239 Speaker 2: of people because so many people our age have grown 175 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 2: up being told that they have to be married before 176 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 2: they have kids. So I feel like as soon as 177 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 2: a couple gets engaged very quickly, they assume that there 178 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 2: must be some other reason why this has happened. 179 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's our generation. 180 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,719 Speaker 2: I feel like it was our parents' generation that were 181 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 2: told you've got to get married and then have children. 182 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,719 Speaker 2: I remember hearing a lot of conversations. Maybe it was 183 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 2: more abo our grandparents talking about it, but there seem 184 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 2: to be a lot of talk about shaming people that 185 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 2: had kids out of wedlock. And obviously it's very old fashion, 186 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 2: but I do feel like it's sort of stayed around, 187 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 2: and there is this bit of a tone of judgment 188 00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:59,679 Speaker 2: around online at the moment, and. 189 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: I think, who cares? It obviously took. 190 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 2: A really long time for Matt to design that ring. 191 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 2: He was obviously thinking about it already. The thing is, 192 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 2: who cares if at which happened first? As long as 193 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 2: they're happy and they looked over the moon, So congratulations 194 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 2: to both of them. I just love hearing all this 195 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 2: positive news coming out of the Hembro camp. Three two 196 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 2: one say Tammy's pregnant. Chanell has been torn to shreds 197 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 2: across social media after an influencer exposed it's one one 198 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 2: hundred and forty dollars Advent calendar, Sophie. 199 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: Can you tell us more about it? 200 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 2: So? Chanell has released its first ever Advent calendar to 201 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 2: celebrate its one hundredth anniversary, and they're among so many 202 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 2: high end brands who seem to be doing this at 203 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 2: the moment. So the Advent calendar is shaped like a 204 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 2: perfume bottle, and as you said, Amy, it costs a 205 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 2: whopping one thousand, one hundred and forty Australian dollars. So 206 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, who's buying this shit? Enough money at Chris 207 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 2: SMAs time, I think I'll spend over a grand on 208 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 2: an Advent calendar instead of the two dollar chocolate verse. 209 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: I feel like some of them must be being gifted these. 210 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 2: It's absolutely obscene. But who's actually But who's actually buying K? 211 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 2: You would be surprised at the people that would buy it. 212 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: There would be people. 213 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 2: Out there, just not people that you associate with K 214 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 2: or just rich people. 215 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 1: Well, do you know what is so ridiculous? 216 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 2: So obviously the Advent calendar you open it on the 217 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 2: first of December. It usually starts with the number one. Well, 218 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 2: this calendar is slightly different because it starts at number five, 219 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 2: which pays homage to Chanel number five, and it goes 220 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 2: up to number thirty one. So I'd be really confusing. 221 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 2: I mean, do you keep going off up till New 222 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 2: Year's So does that mean it's a countdown to New 223 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:48,839 Speaker 2: Year's or number five on December first? Yeah, basically you 224 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 2: open number five on the first of December, so it's. 225 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: A bit of a headfuck. 226 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 2: Well, the other thing is I feel like with these 227 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 2: sort of Advent calendars where you get luxury items, I 228 00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 2: feel like you just open them up as soon as 229 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:00,679 Speaker 2: you got them. I don't know if some people, our 230 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,559 Speaker 2: adults are waiting each day. 231 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: Surely, because what's the point of having it as an advantage. 232 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 2: I don't know, to get free shit, well not free, 233 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 2: but you know what I mean. 234 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 1: They've been gouged for these calendars. 235 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 2: Well it's pretty crazy because this Advent calendar was promoted 236 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 2: as having a number of luxury items inside, and obviously 237 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 2: with a really hefty price tag, you would assume that 238 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,960 Speaker 2: you'd be getting some great stuff from Chanelle. But a 239 00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 2: TikToker named Elise Hammond exposed the Advent calendar as a 240 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 2: bit of a ripoff. 241 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 1: So she did a full. 242 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 2: Unboxing on her TikTok account and she showed the reality 243 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,800 Speaker 2: of what the calendar actually had inside. So inside it 244 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:40,479 Speaker 2: were a few items like she now lipsticks and now polish, 245 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:43,360 Speaker 2: a couple of hand creams, and of course perfume, but 246 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 2: they were really miniature sized versions of it, and it 247 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 2: also included a range of other really crappy items like 248 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 2: stickers and fridge magnets. It even had temporary tattoos, a 249 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:59,320 Speaker 2: couple of key chains, and this little plastic Chanel snow 250 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,959 Speaker 2: globe and when to be honest, though, what were they 251 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 2: expecting like a Chanell handbag inside of it? Well, Chanelle 252 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 2: has a lot of beautiful cosmetics, so you would assume 253 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 2: that you'd be getting some luxury items like that every day. 254 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 2: And yeah, but you said they got banging, but you 255 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 2: said they got nail polish and lipstick. Now, there were 256 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 2: some really shit items. There was a fridge magnet, there 257 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 2: were some stickers. So some of the days were really, 258 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 2: really disappointing. Now, Elisa's unboxing video has been viewed forty 259 00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 2: one million times because people cannot believe the crap that 260 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 2: was inside this advent calendar. And it's been alleged that 261 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 2: amid the backlash, Chanelle actually deleted its TikTok page and 262 00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:44,839 Speaker 2: also before they deleted it, they blocked a lease from 263 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 2: their page as well. Oh my, so she's definitely off 264 00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 2: Chanell's list of handouts. Now, I mean, I suppose it 265 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 2: doesn't really matter if they're in giving out temporary tattoos. 266 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 2: I would love to know if she has actually bought 267 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 2: this or she's been gifted it, because I'm kind of 268 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:00,679 Speaker 2: assuming maybe she was gifted at considering Chanell have gone 269 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 2: and blocked her. Yeah, Amy, but they probably blocked her 270 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 2: since the video went viral. 271 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, because they're pissed off because they gave it to 272 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 1: her for free. 273 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 2: But that's the thing. I don't actually think she intentionally 274 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 2: set out to cancel Chanell, because she even said, oh god, 275 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 2: I didn't even purposely try and cancel Schanell or anything, 276 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 2: because she was complimentary to begin with about the shape 277 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 2: of the Advent calendar. It was pretty cool. But I mean, 278 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,319 Speaker 2: you're supposed to give your honest opinion. Are you supposed 279 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 2: to be ecstatic to open up a box containing stickers 280 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:34,360 Speaker 2: that cost a thousand dollars Now? A spokesperson for Chanelle 281 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 2: has denied deleting the TikTok account. They said it was 282 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 2: aware of comments regarding the Advent calendar. The fokesperson said, 283 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 2: we are sorry that this calendar may have disappointed some people. 284 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,640 Speaker 2: The exclusive content of the calendar has always been fully 285 00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 2: detailed on our website as well as on packaging on 286 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 2: the product. I feel like this doesn't make me feel 287 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 2: as bad about not buying an ad their calendar this year. 288 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I was not wanting to part with ten 289 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 2: dollars for the link, so I can only imagine how 290 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 2: pissed off I would have been if I walked out 291 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,080 Speaker 2: a grand for the GID shocking exactly. I was just thinking, 292 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:06,599 Speaker 2: you know, back in the day, when you'd get the 293 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 2: chocolate ones and then you'd open a window and the 294 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,199 Speaker 2: chocolate would be white. I feel like that is the 295 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 2: same disappointment these rich people are having when they're opening 296 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 2: up their Chanelle stickers. 297 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: You know. 298 00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 2: I feel like I've got my life together at the 299 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 2: moment because in November I purchased Brandon and I like 300 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 2: a cheap two dollar Advent calendar, and every day I've 301 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 2: been following it along, I've been making him open his 302 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 2: and it actually makes me feel so Christmasy. Many Christmases ago, 303 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 2: I went to buy a dar for my son, a 304 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 2: rich for the last one they had, but so did 305 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 2: another man. As a ring blows upon them, I realized 306 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 2: there had to be another way. What happened to the 307 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 2: dam It was destroyed. But out of that I know 308 00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 2: Holiday was born, a festus for the rest married a 309 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 2: first sights, Martha and Michael have announced they're engaged three 310 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 2: years after tying the knot on the hit reality show 311 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 2: The Couple. The announcement via Instagram alongside a photo of 312 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 2: Martha flashing her amazing ring. Now, Amy, I understand the 313 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 2: ring has a bit of a unique twist. 314 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, it really does. 315 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 2: So there was obviously a lot of pressure on Michael 316 00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 2: to design something unique, and he enlisted the help of Almans, 317 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 2: who was also the jeweler who made Tammy Hembrose ring. 318 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 1: So they really are the jeweler to the influence. They 319 00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 1: really are. So they've been pretty busy recently. 320 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, so they created a stunning emerald cut diamond. Now, 321 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 2: normally emerald cut diamonds sit on the band vertically, but 322 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,480 Speaker 2: Michael's design sits horizontally. 323 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: Have you guys seen the ring? What do you guys think? 324 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 2: Yeah? I did see the ring, and to be completely honest, 325 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 2: it's not my taste. But I'm not in fashion like Martha, 326 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 2: and I assume she is on top of the trends. 327 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 2: I mean, I know we've discussed the oval diamonds are 328 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 2: all the rage at the moment, but I think for Martha, 329 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 2: she really needed something that was unique, a little bit different. 330 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,080 Speaker 2: I think it's very on style. Well, it was very 331 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 2: her style, and I think it looks beautiful on her. 332 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 2: And I do feel bad when people go and critique 333 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 2: other people's rings because it's a very personal thing and 334 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 2: she seems absolutely thrilled by it. And I do think 335 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 2: it's a very stunning design, but as I said, not 336 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 2: my personal taste, because let's be honest, I'm not that fashionable. Yeah, 337 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 2: I was actually so pleased to not see another oval 338 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 2: cut diamond ring. I do think that they are absolutely beautiful, 339 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 2: but it was kind of exciting to see something a 340 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,920 Speaker 2: little bit different. And as you say, Kate, with Martha 341 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 2: being very stylish and you know, a fashion of beauty influence, 342 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 2: so I expected her to have something unique. So I 343 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 2: feel like Michael has done really well and probably been 344 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 2: steered in the right direction. All of this talk about 345 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 2: influencer engagements got me thinking about whether some of these 346 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 2: companies are actually striking up brand deals between the influencer 347 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 2: and the jeweler, because there's been so much talk about 348 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 2: Almand's recently, obviously in regards to Tammy, Hembro's ring and 349 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:53,280 Speaker 2: now Martha's ring, and the jewelers were quick to claim 350 00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 2: ownership of Martha's ring. They put up a pose saying, 351 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 2: feast your eyes on this stunning emerald where East meets west. 352 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 2: Normally the emerald faces vertically, but looks like we have 353 00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 2: a trendsetter over here. And Michael was quick to thank 354 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 2: the jewelers on Instagram. He wrote, boys, from the bottom 355 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 2: of my heart, thank you. You brought my vision to 356 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:15,439 Speaker 2: life and you far exceeded every expectation I had. Do 357 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:18,439 Speaker 2: you think it's a case of just the jeweler trying 358 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,119 Speaker 2: to drum up their own publicity around it, because often 359 00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 2: when an influencer or someone in the public eye gets engaged, 360 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 2: everyone's looking at trying to find the jeweler. I feel 361 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 2: like there's an element of people trying to find out 362 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 2: how much the rings as well, so they're hitting up 363 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 2: the website. So I think it's pretty clever on the 364 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 2: jeweler's side of things. You think if this was some 365 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 2: sort of sponsored agreement, they would have to write underneath 366 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,399 Speaker 2: hashtag gift that all that it was a collaboration. So 367 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:49,120 Speaker 2: I feel like they must have actually purchased the ring, Sophie, 368 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,360 Speaker 2: Can you really, with your hand on your heart say 369 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 2: that you think the influencers actually abide both those rules? 370 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 2: I mean, I see people flogging off skincare that aren't 371 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,160 Speaker 2: putting gifted or sponsored. I However, in this case, don't 372 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 2: think that there was any sort of sponsorship element, because 373 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 2: Michael did not tag the jeweler on his engagement posts 374 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 2: or on Martha's post. He literally just commented on Armand's page, 375 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 2: which I think is fair enough, particularly if the company 376 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 2: has tagged you and you've dealt with them on this 377 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 2: special occasion. I did have a laugh when I saw 378 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 2: how unique the design was, because earlier this year, Martha's 379 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 2: mum pranked her on the Carl and Jackie Oh Show, 380 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 2: so she wrung up on air, unbeknowns to Martha, claiming 381 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 2: Michael was planning on proposing and had bought a really ugly, 382 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 2: old fashioned ring. Let's have a listen to a grab 383 00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 2: of Martha's response, because it's bloody hilarious. 384 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 3: Hello, what do you want? Look, I don't know how 385 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 3: to tell you this, but then don't tell me that 386 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 3: I have to, because it's so freaking important. Michael wants 387 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 3: to propose to you. And he showed me a photo 388 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 3: of the ring and is it big? It's no, it's 389 00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:03,880 Speaker 3: just ugly to vintage Victorian style ring. You it's not. 390 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 3: I swear to God, he would never. He would never, 391 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 3: I swear to you. He showed me a photo. What 392 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:16,400 Speaker 3: is the diamond big ugly? Is that what you've shown him? 393 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 3: But I haven't shown him. I don't know about rings. 394 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 3: I haven't shown him anything. Oh my god, where is 395 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:25,359 Speaker 3: he buying it from? What is the jeweler? It looks 396 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 3: like from a second hand shop? Martha, Like, I wasn't 397 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 3: going to say anything, but I thought, mate, you, of 398 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 3: all people, you aren't going to say something, like what 399 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 3: do you want me to say something? 400 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 2: Is? 401 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 3: If you're not going to say something, you can't keep 402 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 3: your mouth shut underwater hunt, Well that's what you want 403 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 3: think of Victorian. I don't know he said nothing. I'm 404 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 3: so fucking cheek. Yeah I know, but you know he 405 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 3: might think a vintage edge because you you do. 406 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 2: That like that is just so Martha. Her response, I 407 00:19:57,880 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 2: feel like there would have been so much pressure, as 408 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 2: you say, earlier, on Michael to get this right. 409 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 1: Oh definitely. 410 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 2: And also I feel like there was a lot of 411 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 2: pressure on Martha to write the perfect Instagram caption sharing 412 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,640 Speaker 2: news of their engagement, and I really loved what she wrote. 413 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 1: She simply put, missus, b do. 414 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,120 Speaker 2: You know what's super interesting on Instagram? Now? I don't 415 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 2: know whether you guys have noticed it, but you can 416 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 2: actually tag people in a collaboration so that your post 417 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,439 Speaker 2: also shows up on their page. So that's what she 418 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,439 Speaker 2: did with Michael because he had the exact same photo 419 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 2: and caption, and it takes the pressure off the guy 420 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 2: a little bit. In this situation when you are announcing 421 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,960 Speaker 2: an engagement or wedding or whatever, you also don't want 422 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 2: to be doubling up on some of these big posts. 423 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 2: Do you guys think that was a good caption though? 424 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 2: In terms of engagement reveals? I actually really liked the 425 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,439 Speaker 2: caption as well, Amy, because I feel like it was 426 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 2: a little bit different to the typical stock standard. I 427 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 2: said yes and a million times yes. But the only 428 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 2: thing was it actually led some people to speculate whether 429 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,479 Speaker 2: they in fact were already married. I mean, they have 430 00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 2: kind of been married on Maths as well. What I 431 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 2: love is they actually announce her and aagement from La 432 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 2: So I don't know if the trip was already planned 433 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 2: or a bit of a surprise, but they are in 434 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,439 Speaker 2: America at the moment, and they shared a video of 435 00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:10,720 Speaker 2: them finally sharing the post, and they were at dinner 436 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 2: with a whole group of friends, and it's so funny 437 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:14,679 Speaker 2: because it is such a big moment when you do 438 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,640 Speaker 2: make an announcement like that public, and it's so exciting 439 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 2: to see all the comments flooding in. So it was 440 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 2: pretty cool to see her behind the scenes of that moment. 441 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,679 Speaker 2: Just on the whole announcing on Instagram. I remember seeing 442 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 2: the worst engagement caption. It was lucky boy, patient girl. 443 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 2: I would be so mad if Dale, well one, I 444 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 2: don't even think he'd announced on Instagram, but how pissed 445 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 2: off would you be? 446 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 1: It's not such a rude caption. 447 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,679 Speaker 2: It's really gross because in she should be so happy 448 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 2: that he's finally asked. Man probably say no, yeah, fuck of. 449 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 2: Do we actually know how Michael proposed yet? No, there 450 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 2: hasn't been any announcement on how he actually proposed. But 451 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 2: in the past Martha has said that she would love 452 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,679 Speaker 2: a really low key engagement. She joked that she'd just 453 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 2: like him to open up the draw and pull out 454 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 2: the ring and just ask her that way. Now, understandably, 455 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 2: Martha has been very excited by the news, and she's 456 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 2: been posting the typical photos where you know, the her 457 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 2: left hand doesn't have to be in the shop, but 458 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 2: it is, and she put up a post saying I'm 459 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 2: so in advance for all the spam, but we're so excited. 460 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 2: And then the next day she posts another photo saying 461 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:22,359 Speaker 2: can't stop, won't stop. And Michael has also shared a 462 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:26,000 Speaker 2: hilarious reel on Instagram, and it showed Martha sitting on 463 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,960 Speaker 2: the couch and she's just staring at the ring and 464 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 2: she's actually got her phone out, and she's got the 465 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 2: torch on and she's watching the light glisten on her ring. 466 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,680 Speaker 2: And what's really funny is she's got friends just sitting 467 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 2: next to her, but she's totally tuned out of all 468 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,959 Speaker 2: conversation and one hundred percent of her energy is focused 469 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 2: on this ring. I love the fact that there's no 470 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 2: shame in her, but it does kind of remind me 471 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 2: of the way that Jade tun't she reacted when she 472 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 2: got engaged. 473 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 1: Let's not start out again. 474 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 2: You're as bad as that. I did love Michael's caption 475 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 2: on that video. He wrote, I think she likes it. 476 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: That's me the trouth. Sorry, I'm actually spoken for. 477 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,679 Speaker 2: Sorry. I have been watching a lot of Christmas blogs 478 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 2: over the last week or so, and I am loving 479 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 2: how much Christmas content influencers are producing At the moment, 480 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 2: it feels like there's more than usual out there. Yeah, 481 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 2: I'm finding it difficult to catch up on all of 482 00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 2: it because I feel like we're still in that time 483 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:28,159 Speaker 2: in December where everyone's still working. It's absolutely hectic, but 484 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 2: you're sort of getting the vibe that it's going to 485 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 2: almost be the holiday season. 486 00:23:31,920 --> 00:23:33,199 Speaker 1: I feel like it's due to COVID. 487 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 2: I feel like more influencers are posting about it because 488 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:38,400 Speaker 2: everyone's had a shit two years and they've just gone, Okay, 489 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 2: let's focus on Christmas because it makes people happy. There 490 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 2: are the standout performers like UK YouTubers Anastasia Kings North 491 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 2: and l Darby who were doing Vlogmas this year, which 492 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 2: I absolutely love. And a notable absentee from Vlogmas this 493 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,399 Speaker 2: year is Zoe sug also known as Zuela, and she 494 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 2: has been doing Vlogmas since twenty fourteen, but this year 495 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,640 Speaker 2: she's hung up her boots because she has just had 496 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 2: a baby and she hasn't vlogged for three months. Not 497 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:05,159 Speaker 2: good enough? Do you. 498 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 1: Of course that's a valid excuse. 499 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 2: Do you know what it reminds me of? I don't know 500 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 2: if listeners have seen the ABC's Grumpy was it called 501 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 2: Grumpy Women Christmas, and one of the ladies on the 502 00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 2: show said, you know, back in the day when you'd 503 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,880 Speaker 2: make Christmas cards, you'd hand make decorations, but then when 504 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 2: you kind of get a life, you don't have time 505 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 2: to do all of those things. It kind of reminds 506 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 2: me a bit of that. Yeah, Well, someone that probably 507 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 2: needs to get a bit of a life. No offense 508 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 2: to him is Jed Barker's brother, because he is really 509 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,879 Speaker 2: trying to get his YouTube channel going. And I do 510 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 2: respect it because he put a lot of effort into 511 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,400 Speaker 2: this prank that he pulled on his sister. So while 512 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 2: she was away, he wrapped everything in her bedroom in 513 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 2: Christmas paper, and I mean everything. He wrapped the walls, 514 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 2: he wrapped her bed. There was even you know, deodorant 515 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 2: and knickknacks that he wrapped up separately. And he said 516 00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,760 Speaker 2: that he had never wrapped a gift before and he 517 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 2: did bloody good job. I do have to say, though, 518 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 2: whilst I was watching it, all I could think about 519 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 2: is how much of the wrapping paper he was wasting, 520 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,359 Speaker 2: and that a lot of people aren't going to be 521 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 2: happy about it. It's kind of like when influencers do 522 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,200 Speaker 2: those big mook bungs and they're like, Oh, don't worry, 523 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 2: we're taking the old food down to homeless people, or 524 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 2: you know, oh, friends are coming over. I do wonder. 525 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 2: I don't know. I feel like his mum, she's really 526 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 2: invested in both of their careers. I feel like she 527 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 2: almost would have come and recycled a lot of that paper. 528 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 2: They're like, don't worry, We'll use this wrapping paper for 529 00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 2: the next six years for our Christmas presence. No, there 530 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 2: was no disclaimer, and to be honest, it was wrapping 531 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 2: paper that I could not imagine under the Barkers very 532 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 2: aesthetically pleasing Christmas tree. That's actually true, Kate, because on 533 00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 2: Saffron and Wendy Barker's podcast, they discuss the fact that 534 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:47,919 Speaker 2: they do like to color coordinate their wrapping paper with 535 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 2: their tree, so they have all silvers and golds and 536 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 2: whites on the Christmas tree. And she's one of those 537 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 2: people that actually wraps boxes, so she will a gift 538 00:25:56,359 --> 00:26:00,080 Speaker 2: in a box. But she actually said that sometimes friends 539 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 2: will bring over a Christmas present and she'll get really 540 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 2: upset that it's not in the same color, so she'll 541 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 2: hide it at the back of the tree. I kind 542 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,679 Speaker 2: of respect that commitment because this year I'm doing a 543 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 2: full red old school Christmas theme, so I've gone out 544 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:15,720 Speaker 2: and bought very traditional wrapping paper. 545 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 1: Were you just talking a second ago about people meeting 546 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 1: to get a life? 547 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, well maybe about you. Did you guys see that 548 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 2: Anastasia King's North She got her friend Freyer, who's basically 549 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 2: like her personal assistant, to wrap up a whole bunch 550 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:32,639 Speaker 2: of boxes in that sort of trendy brown paper and 551 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 2: put them under the tree as fake presents. 552 00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 1: I thought that was too fun. 553 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 2: I really want to be one of those people who 554 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 2: does do the brown paper and like, what is it? 555 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,199 Speaker 2: Like twine? I don't even know what this? You know? 556 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 2: The string? Yeah, like very rusty. I always look together 557 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 2: with your life. I feel like a real adult when 558 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 2: you're rapping like that. But I just like to be 559 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:53,359 Speaker 2: a kid and have the fare that Christmas is on 560 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 2: the paper? 561 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 1: Is it just me? Or is it just me? 562 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 2: Or do all the presents that come out of those 563 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 2: brown paper wrapper they always a shit? 564 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 1: I feel like they are, I reckon. 565 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 2: They're always like country road and yeah the POSTI no, 566 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,000 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I would much rather receive a big present 567 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 2: in Santa Claus wrapping paper. I don't want it in 568 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 2: some brown friggin' it's always very esthetic. Well, I feel 569 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 2: like you can make it more Christmasy by having your 570 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 2: own stamps that you you know, Christmas theme stamps that 571 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 2: you put on that brown paper. I feel like that's a. 572 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 1: Bit of my fun. 573 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 2: Anyway, on a local front, some of the influencers have 574 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 2: been doing a good job. I've got to shout out 575 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 2: Sophie Jane Miller and Georgia Richards who are doing weekly 576 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,960 Speaker 2: vlogs however with a Christmas element, and Sophie Jane Miller 577 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 2: did attempt Vlogmas last year and did a good job. 578 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 2: But I can see how it would be really hectic 579 00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,320 Speaker 2: to be filming videos and uploading them every day. I mean, 580 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 2: I know that. 581 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:48,400 Speaker 1: Is their job. 582 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 2: I would honestly love the challenge of doing that because 583 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 2: I'm so sick of seeing these Australian influencers. They always 584 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 2: post shit videos. I think I saw Madison Woolley the 585 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 2: other day with saying, oh, I was thinking about doing Vlogmas, 586 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,199 Speaker 2: but then I just wouldn't find the time. I'm too 587 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 2: busy and I just Irri, it's these people's jobs. Back 588 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,160 Speaker 2: to Sophie and Georgia, I really loved her on Tuesday 589 00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,440 Speaker 2: night because they shared that they had done a little 590 00:28:12,520 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 2: Christmas dash to Target at nighttime and they had been 591 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,119 Speaker 2: hanging out wearing their matching Tartan Christmas pajamas and they 592 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 2: had pimple cream on and they still ventured out to 593 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 2: Target to pick up some Christmas decorations. 594 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 1: I did see that. I saw that on Georgia's Instagram, 595 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,360 Speaker 1: and I felt good on them. I had respect for that. 596 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:31,640 Speaker 2: I mean, I think the pajamas, yep, that's fine, but 597 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 2: they really went the extra mile with the pimple cream. Well, 598 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 2: they're so very relatable self service now, so you don't 599 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 2: really have to see too many people. Yeah. Well, this week, 600 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 2: Sarah's Day also started getting into the festive spirit. She 601 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 2: shared a vlog about her picking up a live Christmas tree, 602 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 2: and she explained that she has always had a live 603 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 2: Christmas tree because that was her tradition in her family, 604 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 2: so I feel like I really related to that. However, 605 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 2: she said that she always goes and picks it up 606 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 2: with her family, which, being an avid Star's Day YouTube 607 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 2: video watcher, I've never seen her go collect her I 608 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 2: have kate she did because there was a video where 609 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 2: she and Kurt drove separately and they met up with 610 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 2: the dad because they buy it down the road from 611 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 2: their place. Really, yeah, there really was no Last year 612 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 2: they got it late and they were searching. Yeah, but 613 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 2: that was different because they left it till Okay, this 614 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 2: is really sad. But for the past three years, Sophie's correct. 615 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 2: She went and met the dad down at the y 616 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 2: and then the second one they didn't have a tree 617 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 2: because they had a tree and she was pregnant. And 618 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 2: then they didn't have a tree. Kurt bought a wreath, 619 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 2: and then this year soorry. Then the previous year they 620 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 2: bought a two hundred dollars real quick tree. Having no 621 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 2: life knowing all of this, it's part of my. 622 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: Job, Sophie. 623 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 2: I felt like there was a bit of an elephant 624 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 2: in the room because Kurt and Sarah kept commenting how 625 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 2: skinny the Christmas tree was, and I kept thinking about 626 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 2: that comment Kurt made on their wedding video about how 627 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 2: all he wanted was a skinny and a skinny tree. 628 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 2: Do you know what I've noticed, as well as with 629 00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:58,640 Speaker 2: the kind of the people who wrapped their presence in 630 00:29:58,720 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 2: brown wrapping paper. 631 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 1: There's also the people who. 632 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:05,480 Speaker 2: Are so minimalistic when it comes to their Christmas tree decorations, 633 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 2: and Sarah's Day is one of them. They'll be like 634 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 2: five baubles on the tree and it will just be 635 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 2: majority tree. 636 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 1: Now, I don't like that. 637 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 2: I don't like it. I'm someone who's like, let's put 638 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 2: as many bables and decorations on the tree as physically possible. Well, 639 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 2: Kate's testament to that, considering her tree fell over due 640 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 2: to the weight of all the baubles. Do you know what, though, Sophie, 641 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 2: You're not just correct in saying that influencers don't like 642 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 2: putting heaps of baubles on their trees. There are some 643 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 2: other common features that I've picked up in Aussie influences 644 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 2: Christmas videos thus far. Would you like me to share 645 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 2: them with you? Yeah, definitely. I've actually already got one 646 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 2: more to throw in about the tree though, Kate, before 647 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 2: you get into it. It's also I don't know, this 648 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 2: is a pet peeve and I'm sorry if any of 649 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 2: our listeners do it. It's the people who don't put 650 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 2: the lights deep enough into the tree, Like if you 651 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 2: can physically see the cable of the light running around 652 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 2: the tree. I'm sorry you have not done it correctly anyway, Sorry, Kate, 653 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 2: get into your your list. Okay, Well, a lot of 654 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 2: influencers seem to be hitting up Starbucks and taste testing 655 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 2: the Christmas varieties. And I personally don't like this because 656 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 2: in Adelaide we don't even have a Starbucks. Like, how 657 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 2: shit is that we had it back when we were 658 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 2: eighteen and then they got rid of the chain. So 659 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 2: I'm personally jealous that I can't try the new Starbucks flavors. 660 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 2: So I'm not a fan of what would be our 661 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 2: version of Starbucks chies. It's a bit of a chejean, 662 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 2: but they probably don't even have any Christmas ones. 663 00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:28,080 Speaker 1: That's a point cake. 664 00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 2: Gloria Jeans, Yeah, I think Gloria j Maybe maybe for 665 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 2: all the sad adult people out there, we've got to 666 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 2: do a real's try some Gloria Jeans Christmas ones. Yeah. 667 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:40,480 Speaker 1: It tastes like shit bread. 668 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 2: It's like it's like Starbucks as coke and Gloria Jeans 669 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:47,600 Speaker 2: as PEPSI. Anyway, moving on, all the influencers also have 670 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 2: the Glasshouse Christmas candles and they're usually burning them whilst 671 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 2: putting the tree up. A lot of influencers seem to 672 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 2: be donning a bikini or crop tops to put their 673 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 2: tree up this year, which I've personally never done. It 674 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,120 Speaker 2: is weird because it's so unseasonably cold at the moment. 675 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 2: Get a few extra views though, Yeah, in the bikini exactly. 676 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,480 Speaker 2: They also seem to have to have matching Christmas pajamas 677 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 2: if they're in a couple, so they have to have 678 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 2: the pajamas matching with either their dog or their baby 679 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 2: and their boyfriend. And I don't understand how the hell 680 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,880 Speaker 2: these influencers are getting their partners to pose in photos 681 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 2: or in videos with matching pajamas. I did see a 682 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 2: very cute photo of Tammy Hembro, Matt Paul and Saskia 683 00:32:24,840 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 2: and Wolf wearing Tartan Christmas pajamas and he seemed to 684 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:30,440 Speaker 2: be getting on with it. But there was one boyfriend 685 00:32:30,440 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 2: of Instagram who was having none of it, and that 686 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 2: was Ali Alten's boyfriend. Let's throw to his reaction, what 687 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:43,840 Speaker 2: is this shoe? Look you? 688 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 1: Why did so. 689 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 2: You know you like some sort of. 690 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: Shoe? 691 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,240 Speaker 2: He cracks me up because there'd be so many group 692 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 2: chats of those boyfriends of Instagram where photos are being 693 00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:06,640 Speaker 2: sent of them in the Christmas pajamas. Because I discovered 694 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 2: poor Dale because I get him to be in lots 695 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,680 Speaker 2: of videos that I put up on Instagram. His friends 696 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 2: had been like screenshotting them and paying the shit out 697 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 2: of him. Well that's like at footy clubs usually all 698 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 2: the footballers get a fine if they appear in like 699 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 2: a newspaper article or on their girlfriend's Instagram account. Well, 700 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 2: as I said, I have been watching a lot of 701 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 2: these influencers Christmas videos and I have decided to rate 702 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 2: different influences Christmas trees for my own. 703 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 1: Oh gosh, I want to hear these. 704 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 2: Okay, So Tylia Scaines shared that she and her housemate 705 00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 2: have put up a tree and I want to say 706 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,880 Speaker 2: good attempt. They did go to Meyer and pick up 707 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 2: some nice decorations. They went with like a gold and 708 00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:48,000 Speaker 2: silver theme. However, the application wasn't good enough. The tree 709 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 2: was very gappy and I wasn't a fan of the 710 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 2: silver tinsel. I feel like that made it a little 711 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 2: bit tacky. Yeah, I feel like I've moved away from 712 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,480 Speaker 2: being one of those people who puts tinsel on the 713 00:33:57,480 --> 00:34:00,960 Speaker 2: tree like, as I said, no offense, it's everyone's personal preference. 714 00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 2: That being said, we are actually putting our parents Christmas 715 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 2: tree up tonight and they really need some new decorations. 716 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:08,839 Speaker 2: But you know when you cherish all of the old 717 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 2: crabs because every year we literally do rainbow themed tinsel, 718 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 2: and I don't know, it wouldn't seem like Christmas without it. 719 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 2: Can I just say, kay, I love how you gave 720 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 2: your assessment of the tree, and it sounded like you were, 721 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 2: you know, really talking tarlier up. 722 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 1: And then you to go. However, I just noticed you 723 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 1: do that all the time. 724 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,359 Speaker 2: Look, another thing as well as tinsel that I don't 725 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:34,440 Speaker 2: think you should be putting on a Christmas tree are 726 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 2: bond bonds. And that's what Ali out and bonds. No again, 727 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 2: good effort, but I didn't like the bond bonds. What 728 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,759 Speaker 2: the hell? Because I put candy canes on my tree 729 00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:45,479 Speaker 2: this year because I've always wanted to be a house 730 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 2: that has real candy canes on a tree. 731 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:48,840 Speaker 1: But who want to ask puts bon bonds? 732 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 2: Is that just like you've run out of decorations and 733 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,720 Speaker 2: you're like, oh, just stick a bonbond on the tree. Actually, 734 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 2: Brandon's sister puts her stocking on the tree, and she's 735 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 2: also put this Haig's Advent calendar. 736 00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:00,440 Speaker 1: On a tree. 737 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 2: So I mean everyone's got something different. If it takes though, 738 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 2: like that's good the tree that goes next to it 739 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 2: or in the kitchen. I feel, yeah. But as we said, 740 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 2: you know, we're obviously being very critical here of other 741 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 2: people's trees, but it's literally personal preference. 742 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:18,200 Speaker 1: Look, these are the rules, these are our rules. 743 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:23,479 Speaker 2: Okay, keep going, Okay, Sarah's day tree, the lights needed 744 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,040 Speaker 2: to be tucked in. Yep, really good enough, and there 745 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 2: weren't enough decorations, which Sophia dressed earlier. I did like 746 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:33,880 Speaker 2: Anastasia King's Norse Christmas tree, I done pre lips. I 747 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 2: didn't like, you know, I like the bronze theme that 748 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 2: she went with. I didn't like the fake box presence 749 00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:42,359 Speaker 2: as and I've seen Anastasia's tree. I somehow late night 750 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,880 Speaker 2: was watching her blog from like four years ago, and 751 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 2: it was the most hideous tree I've ever seen. It 752 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:49,440 Speaker 2: was that little tiny one. No, it was it was 753 00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 2: one that Atticus and her mum Julie decorated. Oh it 754 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,640 Speaker 2: looks lovely, and it looks lovely and I'm really sorry 755 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:57,719 Speaker 2: because I love them, but it looks ship. Now we'll 756 00:35:57,760 --> 00:35:59,920 Speaker 2: end on a high because I think the best in 757 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,759 Speaker 2: fluence a tree so far is Riley Hempson, who is 758 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 2: better known as Healthy Chick one oh one. So she 759 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:09,000 Speaker 2: was very dedicated when she put up this tree. It's huge. 760 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 2: I think it's about eight foot tall. And she even 761 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 2: added a cented pine to inside the tree, so it's 762 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:18,400 Speaker 2: a nice touch. Now, she didn't actually go with any decorations. 763 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 2: She just filled it with lights. Oh, it looked so good. 764 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 2: And she was filling in the gaps of the tree 765 00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 2: with garland and she even went right down to the 766 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 2: bottom so you couldn't see the TACKI sto. Kay, so 767 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 2: you need to check it out. 768 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: Kay. 769 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 2: I feel like there needs to be a special mention 770 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 2: to Courtney and Sam Magnan because their trees are probably 771 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:38,919 Speaker 2: the best trees I've seen on Instagram at airpic. Yeah. Well, 772 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 2: I think that's all we've got time for today.
