1 00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:05,360 Speaker 1: Hi, and welcome to another episode of Outspoken. You're joined 2 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:08,800 Speaker 1: by journalists Amy Kate and Sophie Torbert. Coming up on 3 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:12,040 Speaker 1: the episode why Chappelle Corby has every right to make 4 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:15,120 Speaker 1: money from her book The Rise of the Power Couple 5 00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:19,079 Speaker 1: Online and one side Hustle that might be going too far? 6 00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 1: But first, what have you been up to this week? Amy? Well, 7 00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,119 Speaker 1: I've realized that this is actually the first week that Kate, 8 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,800 Speaker 1: soph and I have actually all officially lived apart from 9 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: each other. So we're one week into life without watching 10 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 1: Kardashians Whenever you want life. Yeah, no, Bachelor, I've already 11 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: been in a year in I've already I've already weaned 12 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,480 Speaker 1: myself off all my favorite shows. Well, it's actually worked 13 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 1: out quite well because Dale and I have totally different bedtimes, 14 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: so he goes to bed super early, so when I 15 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 1: feel like a parent, like, I'll go and you know, 16 00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: get out of chocolate and watch Love Island or something. 17 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 1: It's been great. Well, I have Brandon so well trained. 18 00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: He started watching YouTube. Last night. We literally watched Sarah's 19 00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 1: Day on repeat, Old school Sarah's Day. Yeah, it was great. 20 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: What is he getting out of that? He loves Kurt, 21 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,559 Speaker 1: so I don't know. We just love What about UK. 22 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 1: What's life like living with your boyfriend Reese? Yeah, it's 23 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 1: been good, thank you. We've just been trying to get 24 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: the house organized. So we got a wardrobe finally and 25 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,640 Speaker 1: built that from my Kia so that all went well, 26 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: no arguments. I also realized today that my television that 27 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:25,040 Speaker 1: I used to have in my bedroom was stolen during 28 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: our move. We moved two weeks ago and I was like, 29 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: do you know where the TV is? And He's like no, 30 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: And we realized that whilst we were moving out the front, 31 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,679 Speaker 1: someone's come along and taken it. Well, we should probably 32 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,959 Speaker 1: move on to our first topic. Chappelle. Corby was thrust 33 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 1: back into the spotlight last week when she spoke publicly 34 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 1: for the first time since arriving home to Australia more 35 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: than two years ago. The forty two year old spoke 36 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: to Kyle and Jackie O, as well as Studio ten 37 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: as part of her press tour to promote her book 38 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: My Story, which she wrote alongside Catherine Baronello. She bravely 39 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: shared her harrowing struggles with men health and again proclaimed 40 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 1: her innocence. Corby was convicted of smuggling four point one 41 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: kilograms of marijuana into Bali and was sentenced to twenty 42 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: years in jail. Questions have now been raised over whether 43 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: Chappelle should be allowed to profit from book sales, with 44 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 1: Australian laws forbidding those convicted of a crime to profit. Now, 45 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: I think when we look into this topic, we have 46 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: to remember that the media has played such a huge 47 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: role in this and we are seeing again media backlash 48 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: on Chappelle Corby about this idea that she is profiting 49 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: from a crime. But I think from everything Kate Sophen 50 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: I know about the case, she is the president who 51 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: should be profiting after the hell she has been put through. 52 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 1: Amy is the perfect person though to talk about this case, 53 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: because she did complete her master's thesis on the topic, 54 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: and she investigated trial by media in the Chappelle Corby case, 55 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: and because I have read her thesis and I am 56 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 1: very interested in the case myself. The complete ignorance when 57 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 1: discussing this case has really annoyed me. This week. I 58 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: have listened to a number of podcasts and media reports 59 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 1: on this and the huge thing people seem to be 60 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: forgetting about is this case captured the attention of the 61 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 1: Australian public because there is so much doubt over whether 62 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 1: she did it or not. Now, Amy, can you run 63 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: us through the facts of this case. Well, when you 64 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: take all the theatrics out of this case and you 65 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: just lay the information out there for the world to see, 66 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: it just absolutely still shocks me that people can think 67 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: that Chappelle Korby is guilty. Firstly, Chappelle had no criminal 68 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: history before any of this happened. She's not a drug user. 69 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 1: She's been tested for drugs. She showed up negative to 70 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: every single test and that might come as a shock 71 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: to some people because there's this bullshit going on in 72 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: the media that her family are druggies. I'm sorry, but 73 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: I'm sure anyone has a family member who has perhaps 74 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 1: smoked marijuana before. Just because a family member has done it, 75 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 1: it does not mean that you are guilty of that. Well, 76 00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: if you look at it this way, this is how 77 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: it is. The story is, and this is the story 78 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: that the prosecution was trying to push in the Chappelle 79 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: Corby case. They want you to believe that Chappelle Krby, 80 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: a twenty seven year old Australian woman, walked through three 81 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: airports with a huge bag of marijuana in her boogieyboard 82 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: bag that she had slashed. So let's just put this, 83 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: let's just put these facts into perspective. When Customs office 84 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:26,160 Speaker 1: opened Chappell's bag in Bali, the plastic bag that marijuana 85 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 1: was in had a slash mark which released the smell. 86 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,400 Speaker 1: Her bag would have had to travel through three airports 87 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: with the smell of marijuana coming out of And that's 88 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: what a lot of people don't realize. Chappelle didn't have 89 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: a direct flight from Brisbane to Bally. She went through 90 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 1: Sydney Airport, which is a very pivotal part of this case. Yes, 91 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: so as you said, she went from Brisbane to Sydney 92 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: and onto Barley, so she would have had to go 93 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: past customs officers, check in staff, sniffer dog's X ray machines, CCTV. 94 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: And they want you to believe that she decided to 95 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: take marijuana into a country where the drug is worth 96 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: just a small, a tiny fraction of what you could 97 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,360 Speaker 1: get it for in Australia. And that's really contentious because 98 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,960 Speaker 1: they didn't actually test the origin of the marijuana, which 99 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: was requested by the Corby family. That's true, and think 100 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 1: about this her name and full address was on that bag. 101 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: Do you think if you're smuggling drugs into a country, 102 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: you were going to label that bag with your name 103 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: and detail. That's the thing that always confused me as well. 104 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 1: Would you not put a lock on your bag? Why 105 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: would you put a huge fucking bag of marijuana on 106 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: top of a boogie board? It does not make any 107 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: sense whatsoever. And the other whole point around the bag 108 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: is the bag was way too big to go through 109 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: as normal baggage. It actually went through oversized baggage, which 110 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,799 Speaker 1: means that the bag is scanned when you drop it off. 111 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: So it's very hard to believe that scanners wouldn't have 112 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 1: picked up this massive bag of marijuana in Brisbane Airport. 113 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,279 Speaker 1: It just doesn't make any sense. And this case has 114 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 1: gained so much attention over the last fifteen or so years, 115 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 1: and I think there are a lot of people that 116 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 1: might be listening to this who are in their early 117 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 1: twenties who may not understand because they were too young, 118 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 1: just how big this case actually was in Australia and overseas. 119 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: And what might be surprising to some people now is 120 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 1: the huge support Chappelle and her family received from the 121 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 1: Australian public, because there was a time where it was 122 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: about ninety five percent of people who were actually polled 123 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: by a newspaper believed that Chappelle was innocent. So it's 124 00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: not surprising that so many people thought she was innocent 125 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: and so many people supported her in two thousand and five, 126 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: because just looking at how the case was handled in 127 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: court is absolutely appalling and you wouldn't see this type 128 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,479 Speaker 1: of case being handled this way in Australia. So first 129 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 1: police refused to, even as Sophie said, check the origin 130 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: of the marijuana, so there was thought that perhaps the 131 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: marijuana had been put in her bag in Indonesia and 132 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,159 Speaker 1: if it had tested as Indonesia marijuana, then that would 133 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,280 Speaker 1: have proven that she didn't do it. They also refused 134 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 1: to fingerprint the bags, the plastic bags that were of 135 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,599 Speaker 1: course holding the marijuana, or look for any DNA evidence. 136 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 1: So of course if they'd run DNA testing and found 137 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 1: no remnants of Chappelle DNA on their no fingerprint, and 138 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: then there's the presumption of guilt over innocence in an 139 00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:09,559 Speaker 1: Indonesian court, so they had to prove her innocence, which 140 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: again something like that doesn't happen in Australia. The other 141 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: fact is they ended up burning the marijuana. This was 142 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: before her appeal, so there was no way of ever 143 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: proving the origin of that marijuana. The judge in question 144 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: had never acquitted anyone in his five hundred cases. And 145 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: the most disturbing thing is the sentence she received is 146 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: more time in prison than rapists, terrorists and murderers get 147 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: in some cases. So we know more about the trial, 148 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: but can you tell us what you actually think happened 149 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: and how those drugs got into Chappelle's bag. So, as 150 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: we mentioned earlier, Chappelle of course traveled from Brisbane Airport 151 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: onto Sydney and then onto Bali, so her boogiey board 152 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: bag was checked into oversized luggage. On the very same 153 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: day Chappelle was traveling through Sydney Airport, there was a 154 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 1: police operation underway which was called Operation Mocker. And this 155 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 1: is a pivotal operation and that people just forget about. 156 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: It's never mentioned in the media. So the operation had 157 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: baggage handlers and customs officers at Sydney Airport under surveillance. 158 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: As I said, on the very same day Chappelle traveled 159 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: through the airport, so The theory is that the baggage 160 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: handlers were tipped off about Operation Mocker, and they of 161 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:21,280 Speaker 1: course were spooked. So the cannabis was placed in Chappelle's 162 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 1: bag by baggage handlers at Brisbane Airport and destined to 163 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 1: be removed by baggage handlers in Sydney as part of 164 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: it interstate drug trafficking exercise. So the customs officers were 165 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 1: clearly spooked as I said, and unable to remove any 166 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: of the cannabis in her bag which was intended for 167 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: Sydney recipients, and the marijuana continued on its way to Bali. 168 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: And if you think that this does sound far fetched, 169 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 1: here's the kicker. Okay. The head of Operation Mocker is 170 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: a guy called Mark Stanton and he is a disgraced 171 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: high ranking police officer who was a former Associate director 172 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 1: of the New South Wales Crime Commission. Now Mark Standon 173 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,359 Speaker 1: is currently serving a twenty two year sentence for drug trafficking. 174 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,680 Speaker 1: He was found guilty of conspiring to import and supply 175 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:09,719 Speaker 1: three hundred kilograms of pseudoephadrin. So that's enough of the 176 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 1: chemical to produce sixty million dollars worth of ice. How 177 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:18,319 Speaker 1: the media hasn't even linked. This guilty verdict of this 178 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 1: corrupt police officer who was head of a drugs operation 179 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,199 Speaker 1: on the same day Chappelle Corby traveled through Sydney Airport 180 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: is mind boggling. So we've got to remember this is 181 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: two thousand and four, just three years after nine to eleven, 182 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: and this was a time when airport security was high 183 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,640 Speaker 1: profile matter. So let's just think about it. We have 184 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 1: Australian baggage handlers and customs officers a part of these 185 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 1: illegal activities. And if this was to come out as 186 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: the reason why a twenty seven year old beautiful woman 187 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 1: had been caught in Bali and possibly facing the firing squad, 188 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: can you imagine what would happen and why our government 189 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 1: would need to cover this up. And it's a really 190 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 1: good point you made about the fact that this was 191 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: actually really close to nine to eleven because two years 192 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 1: before Chappelle was actually arrested, a top customs officer by 193 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,559 Speaker 1: the name of Alan Kessing was actually appointed to investigate 194 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 1: security at Sydney Airport and he filed this report which 195 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: was a damning report on security. It was extremely damaging. 196 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: It found many holes and corruption and this report was 197 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: actually suppressed and never acted upon. So the report was 198 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: lodged into the Australian Federal Police database, but as I said, 199 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: it was never acted upon. It was never made public 200 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: to Corby during her court case. So Alan Kessing actually 201 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: had major concerns about the security at Sydney Airport and 202 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 1: who could actually get into baggage handling areas, and also 203 00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: about crime syndicates operating in Sydney Airport. And less than 204 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:50,719 Speaker 1: a year after Chappelle was actually arrested, Alan Kessing had 205 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: had enough. He leaked the report to the media in 206 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: order to confirm that there was this rampant corruption going 207 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 1: on at Australian airports and what happens to whistleblowers they 208 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: get punished. There's also more food for thought. Chappelle is 209 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: not the only Australian to have claimed to have found 210 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 1: drugs in their bag. In nineteen ninety seven, a Melbourne 211 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 1: couple got the shock of their life when they opened 212 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: their suitcase in Bali to find a large block of 213 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: compressed marijuana about the same size and weight of the 214 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 1: marijuana which was actually found in Chappelle's bag. So when 215 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 1: they contacted an Australian consulate officer. They were told to 216 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,720 Speaker 1: flush it down the toilet and not report it to 217 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: any Indonesian authorities as they would be arrested for being 218 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: in possession. That couple is so lucky that they didn't 219 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: get pulled up. They would have been They would have 220 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 1: been in prison for twenty years. That's not the only 221 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 1: time it's happened. So in twenty fourteen, a seventy four 222 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,839 Speaker 1: year old grandma got the shock of her life. So 223 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: she traveled through Sydney Airport to New Zealand, her home 224 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:47,160 Speaker 1: New Zealand, and she must have just unpacked and put 225 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: her case away. Four years later she dragged it out 226 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 1: to go on her next overseas holiday and she found 227 00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:55,400 Speaker 1: what she claimed was what she said was white stuff, 228 00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: which happened to be I think it was cocaine in 229 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: her bag. Well, we've also got to remember it. Chappelle 230 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: Corby now says one of her greatest fears is traveling 231 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: and she will not take a bag with her and 232 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,839 Speaker 1: she will not put it through the airport's security. This 233 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 1: is if anybody watched the interview on Studio ten and 234 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: listened to her on kyl and Jackie O. This is 235 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: a woman who was broken. This is a woman who 236 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,360 Speaker 1: has suffered severely from mental illness, and I can tell 237 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 1: you the core of that suffering is because she didn't 238 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: do it, and she's been sitting in a prison for 239 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 1: a crime she did not commit. And there's another fact 240 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: that really angers me that never gets mentioned is the 241 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: fact a man called John Patrick Ford, who was an 242 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 1: inmate in the Port Phillip prison, he actually came to 243 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 1: Chappelle's defense back in two thousand and five. He risked 244 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: his life to tell a court that he heard conversations 245 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:45,439 Speaker 1: from two inmates who were talking about a drug trafficking 246 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: syndicate that was using passengers bags to transport drugs from 247 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: Brisbane to Sydney. He stood up in court, risk his life. 248 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 1: He actually said I'm going to something's going to happen 249 00:12:56,520 --> 00:12:59,120 Speaker 1: to me. He ended up getting stabbed when he returned 250 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 1: to prison. And can I just say they never pointed 251 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 1: out what drug syndicate. Chappell was apparently a part of 252 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 1: where the drugs were going. If she was the mule, 253 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,679 Speaker 1: then why did they make no effort to find out 254 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 1: who was the actual ringleader in this case? There were 255 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,520 Speaker 1: just so many loose ends here and it just makes 256 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: no sense. Well, that's exactly right, and people are forgetting 257 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:22,080 Speaker 1: names have been named, John Patrick Ford named. Sorry, it's 258 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: like a Sign Ferd episode. They named names, but it's true. 259 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,559 Speaker 1: And there's another man that never gets any media publicity, 260 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: a man called William Moss. He has gone on record 261 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 1: and publicly stated he was meant to collect the drugs 262 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: that were found in Chappelle's bag and they were not 263 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 1: meant to go to Bali. They were meant to be 264 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,719 Speaker 1: removed by a baggage handler and they were meant to 265 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:45,120 Speaker 1: be distributed in Sydney. It is ridiculous. What I can't 266 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 1: understand is how the media can continue to report one 267 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: side of the story, but when we have to think 268 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 1: about it logically, it's a complete cover up. It's a 269 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,319 Speaker 1: cover up for the government because the government were truly 270 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: aware that this was happening. Is a cover up within 271 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,240 Speaker 1: journalism as well, because I can tell you that this 272 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: story is being reported to journalists who are refusing to 273 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: cover it because of the connection between networks and the 274 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: Australian government. That's one hundred percent right. And we could 275 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: go into much more detail about politicians, police commissions and commissioners, etc. 276 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: Who were aware of many reports, and if anyone is 277 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: actually interested in looking into it further, go and check 278 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: out the expendable report because that has all the freedom 279 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: of information, that all the dossias, everything you could ever 280 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: want to find out about the Chappelle Corby case, and 281 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 1: it is one hundred percent true. So, sort of taking 282 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: a step back, Amy, can you kind of explain to 283 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: us You've obviously touched on the media's part in this case, 284 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: But one interesting thing that I remember happening was you 285 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 1: said that ninety five percent of the population believed she 286 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 1: was innocent, but it was so quick to change as 287 00:14:50,120 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: soon as she was found guilty. And there's a lot 288 00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: about the law of defamation that plays into this. Can 289 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: you tell us a little bit about that. Yeah, Well, 290 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: having worked as a journalist, and you know you guys 291 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 1: have worked as journalists too, you would know that Chappelle 292 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: Corby was hot property back in two thousand and five. 293 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: She was front page of every newspaper at one stage. 294 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: And what happens when you push a particular angle, Well, 295 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: that's not going to really sell anymore, is it. So 296 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: what I found with my thesis into trial by media 297 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: is that the media coverage change immediately after Chappelle was convicted, 298 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: So it was very much pro Chappelle. What a tragedy 299 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 1: this is that she's got twenty years. Lots of people 300 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 1: won't know that they actually aired the whole trial. That's 301 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: how much Australia on television. That's how much Australia was 302 00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: on her side and believed in her innocence. So I 303 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 1: think what became a better story though, was looking into well, 304 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: actually maybe they're going to turn on Chappelle Corby, And 305 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: as you said, check book journalism became rife. So we 306 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 1: were seeing current affair style shows interviewing best friends who 307 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 1: were paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to reveal dirty 308 00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: details about the Corby family. And what's sickens me about 309 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: all of this is checkbook journalism. And I am so 310 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: opposed to checkbook journalism because you don't know what's true. 311 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: If someone said to someone who's down and out in 312 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: the bones and they're ask, hey, you know Chappelle, will 313 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 1: we give you two hundred thousand dollars, don't worry about 314 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: giving any providing us any proof. You just tell us 315 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 1: what type of person she was? Did she do drugs? 316 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: Did she do this? He no longer becomes objective. It 317 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: is now motive driven. And Kate mentioned defamation and the 318 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: reason she mentioned that is because Chappelle's father actually died 319 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: when she was in prison. He had terminal cancer. And 320 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: what's sickening about the Australian media is as soon as 321 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: her father passed away, it suddenly became a free for 322 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 1: all for scum journalists everywhere to write extremely defamatory comments 323 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: about Chappelle's father because the rules of defamation are that 324 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: the dead can't sue, so you can literally say whatever 325 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: you want, whatever scandalous headline that you think is going 326 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: to sell newspapers, and you can completely to fame someone. 327 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: And that's one thing I think needs to change, are 328 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 1: these defamation laws because while the person has died, what 329 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: about their family, that is, actually their reputations are being 330 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 1: destroyed by these disgusting rumors. The worst part about it 331 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 1: all is Chappelle was actually looking after her terminally ill 332 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 1: father before all of this happened. She was such a 333 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: beautiful daughter to him, and I just think that they've 334 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 1: cast her as this absolute villain and him as this 335 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: big drug mual, Like why would he be smuggling drugs? 336 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: Across to Barley when he's about to die. It doesn't 337 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 1: make any sense. Yeah, well, as I mean, as listeners 338 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: can tell. There are so many twists in terms of 339 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,439 Speaker 1: the Corby case, and I for one can't wait to 340 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 1: read Chappelle's book My Story, and I will post it 341 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: all over my Instagram. I don't care what people think. 342 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: I think that Chappelle should be able to profit however 343 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: much she wants to from this book. And also the 344 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: joke of it is she actually can't work anymore because 345 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:01,000 Speaker 1: she's such a celebrity following this ca So how do 346 00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:02,960 Speaker 1: we want her to earn money? She can't earn money 347 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,919 Speaker 1: because people are going to flock her and there's media everywhere, 348 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,280 Speaker 1: and she's obviously got some mental health issues that need 349 00:18:10,320 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 1: to be paid for because of this awful situation. So 350 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 1: what do we want her to do? She lives with 351 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 1: her mum, She really can't go out anywhere, and what 352 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: she can't make a couple of one hundred grand off 353 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: this book to help her survive. What infuriates me, though, 354 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 1: is this continual media spin about the Coreby's. It's oh pep, 355 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 1: it's backlash over her earning money. This book has shot 356 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,639 Speaker 1: to number one, the best selling book in Australia at 357 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: the moment. So I think that people, I think the 358 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 1: media need to look at what people really think about Chappelle. 359 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 1: And I think a lot of Australians do still think 360 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: she's innocent because why would they have bought her book 361 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 1: and supported a criminal. At the end of the day, 362 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 1: she is innocent. She should be allowed to make money 363 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 1: off this book. I don't care what anyone says, so 364 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 1: changing pace a little bit. They're the Instagram power couples, 365 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: filling up our feeds and making us feel in adequate. 366 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 1: From the perfectly posed kissing photos to the matching outfits 367 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 1: and constant declarations of love, their relationships are nothing short 368 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 1: of hashtag couple goals. While we haven't all access pass 369 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,800 Speaker 1: to their relationship wins, rarely do we see the ups 370 00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 1: and downs of everyday life. Sophie, what are couple goals? Well, firstly, 371 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 1: I have to admit I am so guilty of being 372 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 1: heavily invested in influencers relationships online and to me, Sarah's 373 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: Day and Kerktills are the ultimate couple goals. So basically, 374 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 1: couple goals are when you look up to a couple 375 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: that you aspire to be. So most of the time, 376 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,679 Speaker 1: these power couples will upload borderline professional photos where you 377 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:43,680 Speaker 1: can't believe that someone was actually there during those intimate moments. 378 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:46,439 Speaker 1: The ones I love most from Sez and Kurt were 379 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: a photoshoot they did for her YouTube channel, and it 380 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:50,919 Speaker 1: was right before they had her son, Fox, and they 381 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: wanted to do the Ultimate couple Goals challenge, so they 382 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 1: had photos of them kissing in the rain. They had 383 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: photos of them on a romantic lunch. We can't tell 384 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,160 Speaker 1: you and Branda to been watching Sarah's Day a week, 385 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:07,479 Speaker 1: but I think in order to be a couple goals 386 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: or a power couple, you have to be quite high 387 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: profile and very actually trying to be a couple goal. 388 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 1: Is that what you're saying, Well, I think they are 389 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: because if you take a look at Instagram, some of 390 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: the top pages to follow are Instagram couples. I've actually 391 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 1: always had that theory that YouTubers do better when they're 392 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: in a relationship. Look at one of our guests on 393 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:29,879 Speaker 1: the show. We had Jonathan sour On, who was, of 394 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 1: course Shani Grimmin's ex boyfriend, and he got a huge 395 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: following from dating Shanni went really quiet and then popped 396 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 1: up with Madison Woolly and I will find myself watching 397 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:40,359 Speaker 1: him because I don't know, I just love seeing the 398 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: interaction with the couple. Well that's the thing these days. 399 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 1: Being in a couple is big business online. Yeah, it's 400 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 1: far more interesting. It's almost because they can be self 401 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: indulgent together. It's like, you know, when looking at Jonathan 402 00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 1: and Madison, I feel like, when it's just one of them, 403 00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 1: it's a bit boring because I've got no one to 404 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 1: do anything with. But when you pair the two together, 405 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 1: you're like, oh, this is so this is so bad. 406 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,760 Speaker 1: But I can't look away. Well, who's meant to take 407 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: their photos? If they don't have a boyfriend or girlfriend 408 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:08,920 Speaker 1: of Instagram? It's quite you know what I mean? Who 409 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 1: were taking? Maybe that's a thing. Maybe you need a 410 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: boyfriend and girlfriend of Instagram to up your Instagram's right, 411 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 1: that's right. What's sadder is that I know how much 412 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,880 Speaker 1: Sophie is invested in some of their relationships. She's obviously 413 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 1: talked about Sasie and Kurt, but Sophie was so sad 414 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 1: when she thought Nick and Sammy Robinson had broken up. 415 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 1: It was actually hilarious I'm not trying to throw you 416 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,679 Speaker 1: under the bus, but did you or did you not 417 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: scour Sammy's page to find out if she was still 418 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:37,439 Speaker 1: following Nick I did. That's how I worked out they 419 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: weren't together. Think we've talked about this before. I was 420 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: gonna say, back to real life though. It's quite funny 421 00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 1: because you know, talking about Instagram couples taking photos of 422 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: each other. I feel like there's one extreme. There's a 423 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 1: guy on Instagram who loves nothing more than having photos 424 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: of himself taken. And then there's Kate's boyfriend who you 425 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: only had a single photo of you guys taken during 426 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:59,639 Speaker 1: your whole trip to Melbourn. I haven't even seen the photo. 427 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: Like Kate and Reese went to Melbourne and they couldn't 428 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: be there were no photos of the experience. How do 429 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,280 Speaker 1: we know? How did it happen? What's that saying? I 430 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 1: remember we did a story. I worked on this story 431 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 1: in Today to Night and someone said, if it's not 432 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 1: on Facebook, it didn't happen. True, this is a while ago. 433 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 1: She would mean Instagram. Now, actually, I'm going to blow 434 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: your minds. We actually didn't take one photo together. What now? 435 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: How is that? Did you feel awkward asking him to 436 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 1: take a photo because he's not really into Instagram. To 437 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: be honest, when I think you're having a good time 438 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 1: on a trip, you actually don't really think about taking 439 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,479 Speaker 1: a photo. There was a moment where I was going 440 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 1: to try and get one. We went to a NBL game, 441 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: but there were just too many people around and I 442 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,120 Speaker 1: actually just felt embarrassed in front of all of them. 443 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: I think some boys just have no idea though. For instance, 444 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 1: I went on a holiday with my ex boyfriend a 445 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 1: number of years ago, and he did not offer to 446 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: take a single photo of me, even though I said, oh, 447 00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: let me take a photo of you here, I'll take 448 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 1: one here. What about? I was waiting for that offer 449 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: in return of a photo, but it just didn't come. 450 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: Oh my god. My ex boyfriend was exactly the same. 451 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 1: It was like, you didn't want to be in any 452 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: photos with me. But I was talking to Reese about 453 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: it and he actually said because I joked and said, 454 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: apparently we didn't put enough Instagrams up, And he's like, 455 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 1: oh my god, if you want a photo, just tell me, 456 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: because I have no concept of it. I don't even 457 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 1: think of it, like it's nothing that I'm doing consciously, 458 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 1: so it's quite funny. Well, that's where my boyfriend Brandon 459 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: is very good. He's such an upgrade from my previous boyfriend. 460 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: His ex girlfriend trained him so well. She wanted photos constantly, 461 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 1: so he will always make sure to get a photo. 462 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 1: He will always ask do you know what's funny? I've 463 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: been waiting to tell this story in the podcast, and 464 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 1: I feel like now it's the perfect time. When I 465 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: went on a European holiday with my boyfriend, we found 466 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,800 Speaker 1: it really difficult to get people to actually take photos 467 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,159 Speaker 1: because you weren't really sure who to trust in Europe 468 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: because you did hear you know, those horror stories of 469 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 1: people running off with your phone. And one day when 470 00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: we were in Amsterdam, there was this beautiful view. I thought, okay, 471 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask. I'm going to offer to take a 472 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,880 Speaker 1: photo for a nice looking person and then they'll offer 473 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:08,640 Speaker 1: to take one for me. So I saw this sort 474 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 1: of like middle aged woman and she looked really nice 475 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:12,880 Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, excuse me, do you want 476 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,439 Speaker 1: me to take your photo? And she said, oh, that 477 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,119 Speaker 1: would be great, and she had an ASSIAX and I 478 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:21,879 Speaker 1: thought fantastic, And anyway, it turns out she wanted a 479 00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 1: photo of her and her best friend and their husbands, 480 00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 1: and do you know who? The husband ended up being 481 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 1: none other than Alf Stewart from Home and Away, so Rayma, 482 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,680 Speaker 1: so he rocks up, Oh get a how are you going? 483 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 1: And it was hilarious because my boyfriend and I went 484 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: sure if we went to acknowledge. I felt kind of 485 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: bad because I thought he must get it everywhere, so 486 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 1: we kin't have had this back and forth. And then 487 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:45,440 Speaker 1: he's like, where are you from? And I'm like from Adelaide? 488 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 1: And I said, oh, where are you from? And in 489 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: my head I was like Sommer Bay and anyway. Then 490 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: by the time we'd ended the conversation, I said, look, 491 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,120 Speaker 1: I do recognize you, but I'm more of a neighbors fan. 492 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: And he just laughed. He's like, you need to get 493 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,399 Speaker 1: a better taste in television, so you never know you 494 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 1: might ask want to take a couple photo and meet 495 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 1: a celebrity moving away from Home and Away stars and 496 00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 1: onto influences. How do you think it actually makes people feel, 497 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,240 Speaker 1: Sophie're seeing these sorts of photos and couple goals all 498 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 1: over their Instagram feeds. Well, I think that a lot 499 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 1: of influencers are portraying a very unrealistic view of a relationship. 500 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 1: You know, no one's relationship is perfect. Everyone fights, everyone 501 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: finds something irritating about their probably suggesting that people put 502 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,360 Speaker 1: up little Insta stories and maybe them fighting or something. No, 503 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 1: I'm not suggesting that, but I'm just saying, you know, 504 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 1: these influencers give us all access pass into their life. Okay, 505 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,920 Speaker 1: here here's what I'm saying. I'm going to say, do 506 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:38,639 Speaker 1: you know who's not a couple of goals? That is 507 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:42,160 Speaker 1: a celebrity couple? Remember Ron running from the Jersey Shore? 508 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 1: They actually his girlfriend actually posted instant stories of them 509 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 1: brawling online. Did you guys see that? I refreshing. I'm 510 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 1: not after people brawling, but I'm just saying, if you're 511 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 1: going to be if you're going to be posting constant, 512 00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: bomittrocious photos of yourself, I'm not saying that I want 513 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,719 Speaker 1: to see people publicly fighting. I'm just saying that I 514 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,399 Speaker 1: feel like, if you're sharing everything about your life, you 515 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 1: should be sharing the highs and lows. I think says 516 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,879 Speaker 1: he does do it quite well, where she says, you know, 517 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,160 Speaker 1: Kurt and I are struggling to find time with each other. 518 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 1: But the other thing that pieces me off is when 519 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 1: these couples break up and we never get to hear 520 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: why like and feel like saying we've heard everything. Why 521 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 1: don't we hear the juicy stuff of why? So talking 522 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 1: about gross couple pictures, these up people aren't even in 523 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: sta famous. They're on my feed for some unfortunate reason. 524 00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 1: And one of the posts that caught my eye was 525 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,159 Speaker 1: he wrote in the caption licked it, so it's mine. 526 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: That's really funny is that his tongue. Yes, I can't 527 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: even make out what's what? That is so foul. I 528 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 1: actually have someone I equally enjoy hate following as much 529 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: as that. There's a girl who she just had some 530 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 1: new boyfriend and then all of a sudden, these are 531 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: the hashtags that she used on every photo. Hashtag you 532 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 1: look like the rest of my life, hashtag mine, hashtag 533 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 1: one day I'll marry you, hashtag my will wait? So 534 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,439 Speaker 1: how long have these people been going out for a 535 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 1: handful of months? Oh my gosh, I think that should 536 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:08,200 Speaker 1: be hashtag back off. So moving on to the headlines 537 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 1: of the week, and the first one is from l 538 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 1: Australia and it reads Evan Rachel Woods calls out Paris 539 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,120 Speaker 1: Hilton for her comments on Millie Bobby Brown's Instagram. 540 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 2: So. 541 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 1: I don't know about you guys, but I wasn't really 542 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 1: sure who Milly Bobby Brown was. I heard about her 543 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 1: in a few podcasts. She's a fifteen year old star 544 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 1: of Stranger Things. She looks about twenty five. It's pretty 545 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 1: ridiculous anyway. So she's posted a photo of herself wearing 546 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 1: a leopard print dress with the caption same dress but 547 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 1: very different day. Nothing too sus about it anyway. Paris 548 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 1: Hilton has gone on there and amongst the forty six 549 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:45,479 Speaker 1: thousand comments, she's written, that's hot. Some people might not remember, 550 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: but that's hot is her catchphrase from the Simple Life. 551 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,680 Speaker 1: So Evan Woods has actually gone on there and divided 552 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 1: fans by commenting back to Paris Hilton and saying she's fifteen. Now. 553 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: Some people were saying, like, look, she's actually just using 554 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: her catchphrase, and others were saying, well, let's be mindful 555 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 1: about the language when we're talking about children. This one 556 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: had me. I kind of thought, well, that's her catchphrase, Like, 557 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,440 Speaker 1: who cares that she said that's hot? I personally think 558 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:12,919 Speaker 1: that It would be quite different if it was a 559 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: man saying that's hot, because it's almost sexualizing her. But 560 00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 1: I think Paris Hilton's saying that's hot as her catchphrase 561 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,359 Speaker 1: is a very difference. Come on, it's bloody funny. So 562 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,879 Speaker 1: the next headline is billionaire Kylie Jenner threatens Gold Coast 563 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: business over Rise and Shine trademark. So what's happened here 564 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: is Kylie Jenner has sent a cease and desist letter 565 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 1: to a small Gold Coast manufacturer for selling a T 566 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,239 Speaker 1: shirt that says rise and Shine on it. Like some 567 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: of you guys might remember that the catchphrase was made 568 00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 1: famous when she did her YouTube office to her she 569 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 1: sung rise and Shine to storm and it's just gone nuts. 570 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 1: This thing is, this is absolutely ludicrous. This woman had 571 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: the shirts before the Kylie Jenner moment, Like what she's 572 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 1: supposed to do just destroy everything because Kylie Jenner has 573 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: now copyrighted that term. Yeah, well that ludicrous. That's exactly 574 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 1: what happened. The shirts were made twelve months ago and 575 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,680 Speaker 1: Kylie's gone and trademarked the name Rise and Shine. So 576 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 1: she said that, look, you can't sell them anymore. And 577 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 1: this business is run by a mother who doesn't really 578 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 1: have enough money to fight the billionaire. It's quite funny. 579 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 1: It's not the first phrase she's trademark. She actually tried 580 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 1: to trademark the name Kylie and Kylie Minogue actually hid 581 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: out and that's how that's the reason why it actually 582 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: didn't occur. The funniest thing though, did anyone actually see 583 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:27,040 Speaker 1: the T shirts? Because they're almost hideous t shirts, these 584 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 1: fluo just awful T shirts. And apparently there were only 585 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: about ten left that she had to sell. She wasn't 586 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: planning on selling any more of them. I'll be interested 587 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: in how many of these shirts of nelsol because of 588 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: the notoriety. Well, they can't be because she's sent this 589 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: legal letter. They're not selling them anymore. But it's just 590 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: it's quite funny because I wonder how she even heard 591 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,320 Speaker 1: about the T shirts. Did she go looking online? It 592 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,360 Speaker 1: wouldn't be her to be all bloody management. Well, the 593 00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: woman in question, who preferred not to be name, actually 594 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 1: said that she just assumes that one of her legal 595 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 1: team did a broad search of the term and of 596 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 1: just hitting up all these businesses. It's pretty disappointing. I think, 597 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 1: come on, like she's got she's the world's youngest billionaire 598 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:09,479 Speaker 1: self made billionaire. Apparently, it's just come on, stop being 599 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 1: so greedy. What's she going to do? A Mom's like 600 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: reds shed and then she's like, your suit, you can't 601 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: use it. And the final headline is look away, Angie. 602 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: The Bachelorette's Kieran flaunts his sprawling tattoos and ripped for 603 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 1: Zeke as he soaks up the sun in Sydney with 604 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: a bikini clad mystery woman. And that headline is from 605 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 1: the Daily Mail, of course. So if it wasn't heartbreaking 606 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,840 Speaker 1: enough for viewers that Kieran left The Bachelorette last week, 607 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 1: he's now been spotted with a blonde woman out on 608 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: the beach. The photos were quite hilarious. He's got all 609 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 1: his tattoos and there's this sort of blonde lady wearing 610 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: a g string. As always, the Daily Mails use some 611 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 1: hilarious terms referring to Kieran as an adonis. It's just 612 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 1: so stupid. Well, I actually read an article today saying 613 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 1: it was labored, oh, Angie and Kieren together, and it 614 00:30:59,920 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 1: was I'm saying that apparently they're together because he off. 615 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,800 Speaker 1: Hanley said, if Angie doesn't pick anyone he'd like to 616 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 1: go out with her. Now you can sell just about 617 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 1: anything online these days, thanks to Facebook, Marketplace, and gum Tree, 618 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 1: and with every man and his dog wanting to launch 619 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: their own side hustle, when just making some extra cash 620 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:22,280 Speaker 1: go too far, Amy, can you tell us about the 621 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 1: latest side hustle that women are signing up for. Well, 622 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: it's been around for a while and I didn't actually 623 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 1: realize that it's been promoted as well, well, not promoted 624 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: but mentioned on Orange is the New Black. So women 625 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: and continuing to sell their underpants online. And you know, 626 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 1: there's been lots of stories about women being sugar babies 627 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 1: and this and that. But the latest side hustle is 628 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: logging on online selling your underpants to absolute weirdos. So 629 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: there's been a number of websites that have popped up, 630 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: and some of their names just absolutely crashed me up. 631 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 1: There's Panty Trust, sell your panties, panty Deal, so you 632 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 1: go on. How they come up with these names so clever. 633 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 1: So basically go online and you can create a profile 634 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,000 Speaker 1: and start selling your underpants. And one website, I think 635 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 1: it was Panti I was just thinking of another name, 636 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: Sniff and Scratch, maybe that's the next one. Well, so yeah, 637 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 1: you can go on. And the website claims that women 638 00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:18,600 Speaker 1: are earning up to two hundred dollars for a pair 639 00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:21,959 Speaker 1: of underpans. I'm sorry, that's not even much money. You're 640 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: under caakes. But let's look at it this way. If 641 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:27,040 Speaker 1: you're selling a pair of under a pair of underpantsh'bly 642 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:30,360 Speaker 1: cost twenty dollars. Oh do they pay for the underpants? 643 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: I'm not sure, but if you if you you need 644 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 1: the cost value of the pantis themselves, I'm pretty sure 645 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: the widows would probably send them to I think they. 646 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 1: I think that's actually what they do. So if you 647 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: sold just one pair of underpants a week, you'd be 648 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: making ten four hundred. That's a bloody overseas trip just 649 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 1: for a pair of underpants. Well, well, for how many 650 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: if I sell, not that I'm interested, fifty two, so 651 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:55,240 Speaker 1: one a week. You know what, after this podcast, i'mbly 652 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:58,560 Speaker 1: gonna get requests throughound underpants. The reason I thought this 653 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:00,200 Speaker 1: would be a funny topic to talk about that was 654 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 1: somehow it got brought up at a dinner I was 655 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 1: at and we were just all enthralled about this conversation. 656 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 1: And so you know, we were trying to google how 657 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 1: much you could actually get for the underpants, and I 658 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: saw the person the girl I was chatting to about 659 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 1: it later in the week, and she done a little 660 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,239 Speaker 1: bit of investigating further into it, and she said that 661 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 1: it's actually the market is just so saturated, for want 662 00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,200 Speaker 1: of a better word, with people wanting to sell their underpants. 663 00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 1: I think that people aren't making as much money as 664 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:28,920 Speaker 1: they once did. Look, I'm gonna put it out there 665 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: for any creeps listening. I feel like triplet underpants would 666 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: go to hive at a high value. It's funny if 667 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: this topic has come up now, because I remember about 668 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: ten years ago when we were in Malaysia, one of 669 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 1: the guys at the markets was telling us about how 670 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 1: there was a woman that was visiting and had sold 671 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 1: her underpants for a huge amount of money. I think 672 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 1: it was like a thousand dollars or something, and she 673 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: had been requested to wear the underpants for over a 674 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 1: week every day, so they smelt more. I mean, how disgusting. Well, 675 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: it's funny you mentioned that because it did say on 676 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 1: the website that the most bias actually want the women 677 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 1: to wear the underpants for at least one to three 678 00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 1: days so, and it was quite funny. I read this 679 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,240 Speaker 1: article about it and this woman who I think she does? 680 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:14,280 Speaker 1: I think she I don't know if she's a prostitute 681 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 1: as well, but she makes her living through but she 682 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 1: gets she sells underpants, you're living as well. And she 683 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 1: actually said that some people will try and get away with, 684 00:34:25,440 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: you know, making up smells that might smell similar to 685 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: what the underpants. Anyway, she was saying that some people 686 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,320 Speaker 1: will try and trick the men that are buying the underpants, 687 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 1: but she said they're almost like these connoisseurs of underpants, 688 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 1: and they can they know if that underpants hasn't been 689 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:43,800 Speaker 1: worn for three days or so. I remember recently seeing 690 00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: a story on Instagram from Steph Claire Smith where she 691 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 1: was talking about this creepy encounter she had. So her 692 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:53,360 Speaker 1: boyfriend's little sister was selling some of Steph's old clothes 693 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 1: at a market, and because she obviously gets gifted a 694 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 1: lot of stuff, she was selling all these old bikinis 695 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 1: and she hadn't worn an any of them. Anyway, this 696 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 1: creep turned up and said to the sister, Oh, next 697 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: time you come, can you bring some that she's worn 698 00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 1: and step gwas Smith was just so freaked out. But 699 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:13,760 Speaker 1: I feel like celebrities get a lot of weird requests 700 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 1: like that, Like I've heard a lot of them saying 701 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: that they get asked to send photos of their toes. Well. 702 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,959 Speaker 1: I was actually looking into this a little bit further 703 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,800 Speaker 1: about people selling their underpants and other things people were selling, 704 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:27,400 Speaker 1: and it turns out that some people actually selling their disgusting, 705 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 1: smelly old socks online songs. Oh my god, I'd sell 706 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 1: I'd sell songs. I think we've got two bad fums 707 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 1: out there. If anyone would like any socks, could they 708 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 1: please contact that? So I think I think what happened 709 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:43,240 Speaker 1: is this woman actually she seld some old socks online 710 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: and someone said are they clean or are they just? 711 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 2: Like? 712 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,279 Speaker 1: What are they more? If they're dirty? Asume? Was there 713 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:50,120 Speaker 1: a thing? Have I dreamt this? Or was there a 714 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: thing where people were selling belly button lint? I don't 715 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: know about that. That's even belly button lint of the 716 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 1: supermoder So just putting it out there, what would you 717 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: guys sell if you had to say else something I 718 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 1: wouldn't sell, So you wouldn't sell your socks? Yeah? But 719 00:36:04,760 --> 00:36:07,840 Speaker 1: not if someone's like it's some sick fetish. I think. 720 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 1: I think it depends if you're photographed and they know 721 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: who they're coming from. I think if they were going 722 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,839 Speaker 1: through like a middleman and they were just passing on 723 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,719 Speaker 1: the socks, if it was anonymous, I probably would sell 724 00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 1: my underpants if it was anymore, or I wouldn't want 725 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 1: someone having a wang over your underpant. Care Well, I 726 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 1: looked into it, as I said. As I said, I 727 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:26,520 Speaker 1: looked into a bit further. And there's lots of other 728 00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:29,000 Speaker 1: things that people are doing other than the underpants and 729 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: the socks. So apparently some people are making a side 730 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 1: hustle by cake sitting. And when I read this, I 731 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: didn't realize what cake sitting was. So apparently sit on 732 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 1: a cake, yeah, so apparently some Yeah, so apparently some 733 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:50,240 Speaker 1: people make videos of themselves that they film themselves sitting 734 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,640 Speaker 1: on a cake because apparently that's some kind of fe 735 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 1: or is it like bear bumed or something. It's not 736 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,279 Speaker 1: necessarily bear bummed. It might be and you know, I 737 00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:59,319 Speaker 1: don't know, a pair of bases or something. The other 738 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: one was eating in front of the camera. So people 739 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: will watch people not just in book bunks, but all 740 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,480 Speaker 1: of that kind of stuff. But I did read there 741 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,839 Speaker 1: was an even darker side to this all. So there 742 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 1: was a There was a Sydney I think she was 743 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 1: a Sydney mum who came out I think was in 744 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:14,719 Speaker 1: Mum and mea and she said that she just put 745 00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:18,359 Speaker 1: up her her five year old daughter's school dress and 746 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:20,120 Speaker 1: stockings because she was like, oh, I don't need it, 747 00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 1: maybe there'll be someone in the community. And she was 748 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:24,359 Speaker 1: selling it for about five dollars or something, and she 749 00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:27,239 Speaker 1: got contacted by this strange man. He was like, has 750 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:30,160 Speaker 1: it been warned? Is the wear and tear in the 751 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 1: and all this stuff. She's like, She's like sorry, what 752 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,520 Speaker 1: that is? And the message just got weirder and weirder 753 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:37,719 Speaker 1: and she was like what the hell? So she just 754 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,440 Speaker 1: deleted it. She had to throw it in the bin 755 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,320 Speaker 1: because somebody's getting it was Yeah, it was really sick. Probably. 756 00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,240 Speaker 1: There was some guy doing the rounds I was asking 757 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:47,240 Speaker 1: for like jackets with zippers. He had a zipper fetish 758 00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 1: and he kept asking if the zip smelled. Well. There 759 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,760 Speaker 1: was a weird one, a whole box of old clothes. 760 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 1: There was a weird one recently doing the rounds. I 761 00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:00,319 Speaker 1: saw Olivia Rodgers share and inst the story where I'm 762 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:01,839 Speaker 1: not sure if it was a joke, but a man 763 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:05,120 Speaker 1: said he'd pay her to kick him in the balls, 764 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,280 Speaker 1: And then I think Tully Smythe got the same message 765 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: as well. Okay, would you do that if someone's not 766 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,320 Speaker 1: a million dollars not to be near that sort of person, 767 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 1: would you have like could someone be there with you? 768 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 1: Or okay, let's let's put this in perspective. They're clearly 769 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: getting some sexual rush and kicking the box. You're not 770 00:38:21,680 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 1: really involve you're kicking them. The only time I would 771 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:27,440 Speaker 1: do it is if it was for charity or something, 772 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 1: if they were like, Okay, we're going to give a 773 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 1: million dollars to the count account. I'm sorry if you 774 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,879 Speaker 1: were telling me that if someone said that you could 775 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:36,880 Speaker 1: kick him in the balls and get a million dollars, 776 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:40,120 Speaker 1: you wouldn't do that. I call ball not in an 777 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 1: area or it's just me and them, like you know what, 778 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to see them have to be like 779 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,440 Speaker 1: this wood at this wall and then a glory like 780 00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 1: hole that you could just care. But I'm not trying 781 00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,360 Speaker 1: to be disgusting. But people's photos are out there on 782 00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 1: the internet, so people could be doing whatever they. 783 00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,279 Speaker 2: Like with your but you're not having to be near them. Yeah, 784 00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 2: but who cares like touching them?
